ExpressJS，Nodester，模板渲染路径？

Question

我写了一个简单的expressjs应用程序，它在本地运行得很好，甚至在no.de上也运行得很好，但在Nodester上，当我访问http://myapp.nodester.com/时，我得到了一个Internal Server Error，日志显示

Error: failed to locate view "home"
    at Function.compile (/node_modules/express/lib/view.js:58:15)
    at ServerResponse._render (/node_modules/express/lib/view.js:416:18)
    at ServerResponse.render (/node_modules/express/lib/view.js:317:17)
    at Router.<anonymous> (/app/server.js:32:6)
    at done (/node_modules/express/lib/router/index.js:250:22)
    at middleware (/node_modules/express/lib/router/index.js:244:9)
    at param (/node_modules/express/lib/router/index.js:227:11)
    at pass (/node_modules/express/lib/router/index.js:232:6)
    at Router._dispatch (/node_modules/express/lib/router/index.js:255:4)
    at Object.handle (/node_modules/express/lib/router/index.js:45:10)

Error: failed to locate view "home"
    at Function.compile (/node_modules/express/lib/view.js:58:15)
    at ServerResponse._render (/node_modules/express/lib/view.js:416:18)
    at ServerResponse.render (/node_modules/express/lib/view.js:317:17)
    at Router.<anonymous> (/app/server.js:32:6)

    at Router._dispatch (/node_modules/express/lib/router/index.js:255:4)
    at Object.handle (/node_modules/express/lib/router/index.js:45:10)

然后，通过fs模块，我试图了解它不存在的原因，fs.readdir('.',function(error,files){console.log(files)})返回了以下内容：

[ '.nodester',
  'app',
  'node_modules',
  'usr',
  'lib64',
  'sbin',
  'etc',
  'dev',
  'proc',
  'home',
  'bin',
  'lib',
  'root',
  '.PKGINFO',
  '.INSTALL' ]

我还发现我git push编辑的所有文件都在apps目录中。

这是否意味着我必须告诉express我的views文件夹所在的正确路径？我该怎么做呢？(我只知道如何告诉它以绝对路径呈现文件)。

Answer 1

使用内置变量__dirname手动设置视图目录

var app = module.exports = express.createServer();
app.configure(function(){
        ...
        app.set('views', __dirname + '/views');
        app.use(express.static(__dirname + '/public'));
});

尝试使用express逗号行工具生成应用程序框架(如果您从npm安装了最新的express版本，则可以访问该工具)。它为你创造了一个很好的起点。
