Http Requests not getting routed to Https NodeJs

I have my Server on Google App Engine and I am using npm module yes-https, below is the code I am writing in order to restrict the requests to Https.

app.use(yes({
   maxAge: 86400,            // defaults `86400`
   includeSubdomains: true,  // defaults `true`
   preload: true             // defaults `true`           
}));

Previously this code was working fine and all my requests whether Https OR Http all were getting routed to Https. But now I don't know why requests coming to Http is not getting routed to Https.

Can anyone please tell me why is this happening.

Hello actually this plugin is working perfectly fine. The mistake I was doing was I was putting yes-https on the middleware after the setting the /public directory, but the right way was to put it before setting /public directory.

Right Code

app.use(yes({
  maxAge: 86400,            // defaults `86400`
  includeSubdomains: true,  // defaults `true`
  preload: true             // defaults `true`           
}));
app.use(express.static(__dirname + '/public'));

Wrong Code

app.use(express.static(__dirname + '/public'));
app.use(yes({
  maxAge: 86400,            // defaults `86400`
  includeSubdomains: true,  // defaults `true`
  preload: true             // defaults `true`           
}));

Because of which Https was not enforcing but now everything is working as expected.
