Express app defined `static` folder not working properly

In my express app, I have declared the static folder. And I am keeping my index.html as well in the static folder. But I have created a new router for a new purpose. when i create a new router my static folder always trying to get the assets using the new router declared. any one help me to sort this issue?

here is my code and issue :

var 
express = require("express"),
app     = express(),
Router  = express.Router;


app.use( express.static(__dirname + '/puplic')); //my public folder

var oneTime = new Router(); //my new router


oneTime.get("*", function( req, res ) {

    res.sendFile( __dirname + "/public/oneTime/index.html");

});

app.use("/oneTime", oneTime);

app.listen( 9000, function portCallback() {

    console.log(" I am started!!" , __dirname);

})

But my app trying to get the angular js like this:

http://localhost:9000/oneTime/oneTime/angular.min.js

what is the issue?

here is the html how i call my angualr:

<script src="oneTime/angular.min.js"></script>

actually I am expecting like this:

http://localhost:9000/public/oneTime/angular.min.js

Option 1

You can change this line:

app.use( express.static(__dirname + '/puplic')); //my public folder.

to

app.use('/oneTime', express.static(__dirname + '/puplic')); //my public folder

Option 2

I am assuming you have a js folder in the public folder, then you need to change your html code:

<script src="js/angular.min.js"></script>

and the server code will be

app.use( express.static(__dirname + '/puplic')); //my public folder.

var express = require("express"),
var app     = express();
app.use(express.static(__dirname + 'puplic')); //my public folder
app.get("*", function( req, res ) {
    res.sendFile( __dirname + "/public/index.html");
});
app.listen( 9000, function portCallback() {
    console.log("Server is Running on 9000");
});
