How do you access 1 singleton on all routes with nodejs/express?

Hey Tyler,

You could do that with a wildcard * query like we do for the menu singleton in our Node.js website example:

prismicio/nodejs-website/blob/e9a867c510b2e4d5ef3a8779bbf695eba5795608/app.js#L37-L46


// Query the site layout with every route 
app.route('*').get((req, res, next) => {
  req.prismic.api.getSingle('menu')
  .then(function(menuContent){
    
    // Define the layout content
    res.locals.menuContent = menuContent;
    next();
  });
});
