How to end an express.js / node POST response?

Question

Im trying to just stop the post request after I\'ve saved a document to the DB, ie:

app.post(\'/blah\'), function(req,res){ 
//my code does a bunch of stuff
         


        

Answer 1

For future reference, you can also do:

res.redirect('back');

Basically this just redirects the browser back to the screen the request came from, in other words "refreshing" it. It's hacky and I wish there was a better way, but it works.
