The "request" object, named as "req" here. You can use another name if you want. // 2. The "response" object, named as "res" here. You can use another name if you want. // Put this module in debug and call it from a browser. Then examine the "req" and "res" objects passed in, // to see all the good stuff they contain. var custno = req.query.custno; // input parm specified as query string parameter, e.g. ?custno=1234 var name = `Customer_name_${custno}`; // get output customer name from input customer number // In this example, we'll use function res.send() to send back the "response" as a text message. res.send(`test from pjstips_02_1.js; custno = ${custno}; name = ${name}`); } exports.run = app;- In the Files tree, right-click on newly-created file pjstips_02_1.js, and click Properties.
