Create A Test File On Node

Run the commands below to create a test file called http_server.js.

cd ~/
nano http_server.js

Copy and paste the content below into the test file and save it.

const http = require('http');

const hostname = '127.0.0.1';
const port = 3000;

const server = http.createServer((req, res) => {
  res.statusCode = 200;
  res.setHeader('Content-Type', 'text/plain');
  res.end('Hello World\n');
});

server.listen(port, hostname, () => {
  console.log(`Server running at http://${hostname}:${port}/`);
});

 

Now, Start the node server by running the following command.

node http_server.js
