Loading basic HTML in Node.js

Question

I\'m trying to find out how to load and render a basic HTML file so I don\'t have to write code like:

response.write(\'...
blahblahblah
...\         


        

Answer 1

How about using express module?

    var app = require('express')();

    app.get('/',function(request,response){
       response.sendFile(__dirname+'/XXX.html');
    });

    app.listen('8000');

then, you can use browser to get /localhost:8000
