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

   var http = require('http');
   var fs = require('fs');

  http.createServer(function(request, response) {  
    response.writeHeader(200, {"Content-Type": "text/html"});  
    var readSream = fs.createReadStream('index.html','utf8')
    readSream.pipe(response);
  }).listen(3000);

 console.log("server is running on port number ");
