node.js TypeError: path must be absolute or specify root to res.sendFile [failed to parse JSON]

Question

[add] So my next problem is that when i try adding a new dependence (npm install --save socket.io). The JSON file is also valid. I get this error: Failed to parse json

Answer 1

I solve this by using path variable. The sample code will look like below.

var path = require("path");

app.get('/', (req, res) => {
    res.sendFile(path.join(__dirname + '/index.html'));
})
