NodeJS http homepage 10: hello world

#node #http #helloworld #beginners
Happy Coding

In this moment, we will created "Hello World" in NodeJS HTTP using a sandbox online, cause fast, effective and efisien.

Ok, let's write on

const hostname = 'localhost'; const port = 3000;
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

then, load the HTTP module

const http = require('http');
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

next, create http server

const server = http.createServer( function ( req, res ) { res.writeHead( 200, { 'Content-Type': 'text/html' } ); res.write( '<h1>Hello World in NodeJS HTTP</h1>' ); res.end(); } );
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

and last, use listen method with callback function for display message

/* port, hostname, callback */ server.listen( port, hostname, function () { console.log( `Server running at http://${hostname}:${port}/` ); } );
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
Thank for reading :)
