Node.js errors need some work.

Writing this in routes/api.js…

 exports.posts = function(req, res) {
 var posts = [];
data.posts.forEach(function(posts, i) {
posts.push({
id: i,
title: post.title,
text: post.text.substr(0, 50) + ‘…’
});
});
res.json({
posts: posts
});
};
exports.posts = function(req, res) {
var id = req.params.id;
if (id >= 0 && id < data.posts.length) {
res.json({
post: data.posts[id]
});
} else {
res.json(false);
}
};

[d'oh! Note the two `exports.posts`.]

…and then attempting to run the Node server will through a less than helpful error:

Node on New Schematic
