How to set default path (route prefix) in Express?
To set default path (route prefix) in Express, we can create a Router instance.
For instance, we write
const router = express.Router();
router.use("/user", user);
app.use("/api/v1", router);
to call express.Router to create a router.
Then we call router.use with a user route object.
Next, we call app.use with router to use the router in the app.
Therefore, we access the routes in the user router by prepending /api/v1/user to the URL.
