I want to make a queue system for to create pdf file. I created a node server and used Express framework. Also I used rabbitmq for the queue system. I set view engine ejs
app.set('view engine', 'ejs');
app.use(Express.static(__dirname "/views"));
My folder structure is
consumers
--consumer_report.js
views
report.ejs
report
--environment.ejs
--consultans.ejs
--map.ejs
When a user wants to create a pdf, I redirect it to the queue. The queue is calculating some datas. After calculating I'm using render ejs file.
createReport(msg.user, msg.reportID, msg.type, msg.packetName, (err, data) => {
data.packet = msg.packetName;
let dirUrl = __dirname "/../views/report.ejs";
let opts = {
async: true
}
ejs.renderFile(dirUrl, data, opts, (err, html) => {
if (err) return console.error(err);
console.log("html", html);
});
});

When render the ejs file I get this error
Error SyntaxError: missing ) after argument list in /home/aaa/Desktop/projects/report/consumers/../views/report.ejs while compiling ejs
I couldn't find the error. Where is my mistake?
CodePudding user response:
you need to change include syntax to include(path)
, as per docs:
NOTE: Include preprocessor directives (<% include user/show %>) are not supported in v3.0 . https://github.com/mde/ejs
try this:
