How to set custom favicon in Express

Question

I recently started working in Node.js and in the app.js file there is this line:

app.use(express.favicon());

Now, how do I set up my own custom favicon.ico?

Hello @kartik,

 Just use:

app.use('/favicon.ico', express.static('images/favicon.ico'));

OR

In express:

 //you probably have something like this already    
app.use("/public", express.static('public')); 

Then put your favicon in public and add the following line in your html's head:

<link rel="icon" href="/public/favicon.ico">

Hope it works!!

Thank You!!
