is there a way for me to hook res.render("view") function right before it executes?

Purpose: I want to hook it and check if the user is on mobile if yes, then edit render page to res.render("mobile/" + view); if not on mobile, just render that one.

`app.use((req, res, next) => { res.render = ...; next() }` at the top of your routes? – Patrick Roberts Jan 30 '18 at 18:32
@PatrickRoberts and how can I get the used render "string"? so I can do something like if(isMobile) { res.render = "mobile/" + usedString; } – Shryder Jan 30 '18 at 18:36
Look at the link I cited for duplicate question. It already answers that. – Patrick Roberts Jan 30 '18 at 18:37
