How can I get Express.js to 404 only on missing routes?

Question

At the moment I have the following which sits below all my other routes:

app.get(\'*\', function(req, res){
  console.log(\'404ing\');
  res.render(\'404\');

Hope it helpful, I used this code in bottom of routes

router.use((req, res, next) => {
    next({
        status: 404,
        message: 'Not Found',
    });
});

router.use((err, req, res, next) => {
    if (err.status === 404) {
        return res.status(400).render('404');
    }

    if (err.status === 500) {
        return res.status(500).render('500');
    }

   next();
});
