You have typo in function name

var myfunctionA=function(param1){}
exports.myfunctionA=myfunctionA

If this file is named functionA.js then You can include a module by

var moduleA = require('./js/functionA')

In this module You have a functionA. You can access to this function by

var functionA = moduleA.functionA

or simpliest way

var functionA = require('./js/moduleA').functionA

If you module only export a one function, then named this file functionA.js and write

exports = function(){}

and access to this function by

functionA = require('./js/functionA')

I hope I help.

Thanks for your response. It!s not the problem. If a fonction is declared in a folder, normailly it's possible to import in a other folder whith the declaration require('../js/myfunctionA') ?

you can modify the content of your file in js path as follow

exports.myfunctionA = function(param1){
}

after that in route path, you require:

var myfunction = require('./js/myFunctionA');

and use it:

myfunction.myfunctionA();
