Serving VueJS Builds via Express.js using history mode

Question

I want to serve vue js dist/ via express js. I am using history router in vue js app.

The following are the api calls

1. api/
2. s-file

Answer 1

The very simpler one if anyone wants to use

Just add this below all the valid routes and above app.listen

app.all("*", (_req, res) => {
  try {
    res.sendFile('/absolute/path/to/index.html');
  } catch (error) {
    res.json({ success: false, message: "Something went wrong" });
  }
});

Make sure you have included

app.use(express.static('/path/to/dist/directory'));
