node.js - Express routing fails to get static files -

i using express 4.9.4, cannot static file server. there folder named public , has file called test.js in it. have tried;

var express = require('express'), morgan = require('morgan'); var app = express(); var port = 1338; app.use(morgan('dev')); // log every request console app.use(express.static(__dirname + '/public' )); app.listen(port);

and have tried;

var express = require('express'), morgan = require('morgan'); var app = express(); var port = 1338; app.use(morgan('dev')); // log every request console var router = express.router(); router.get(express.static(__dirname + '/public' )); app.listen(port);

the server runs , morgan logs request cannot file public directory

myurl.com/test.js

you can try

app.use("/public", express.static(__dirname + '/public'));
