Did the next exercise too. I feel like I’m cursed with this. I had to fiddle around with doing the steps first to avoid the errors pointing out incomplete lines of code… but node app.js by the fourth step was feeding me the same error. None of the stuff in the mini browser shows.
Update: I played around with not doing the steps in order after resetting the exercise and I got it to work… Not sure what is going on but I’m going to keep in mind doing the coding steps first and the bash stuff second otherwise it wont render for me.
const response = {
emailValid: validator.isEmail(req.body.email),
passwordValid: validator.isLength(req.body.password, { min:5, max:10 }); // <- The problem
}
Nice you got it working! In the code you pasted you had a semi-colon terminating a line inside the response object. Semi-colons will throw errors if they are put inside an object. I have made that mistake as well.
