How can I pass in a server when I pass in the app to create the server?

Big chance I'm over thinking this.. feels like a bit of chicken before the egg situation.

  const app = express()
  let server: ServerType

  if (isDev) {
    const options = {
      key: fs.readFileSync('certs/....pem'),
      cert: fs.readFileSync('certs/....pem'),
    }
    server = https.createServer(options, app)
  } else {
    server = http.createServer(app)
  }

  // Different app???
  const wsApp = expressWs(app, server)
  // app.use???

I need to pass in the server option, but to create a server I need to pass in the app.

Someone put me out of my misery 😂

It looks like what I've done is fine, but with a few changes:

const root = express()
let server: ServerType

if (isDev) {
    const options = {
      key: fs.readFileSync('certs/....pem'),
      cert: fs.readFileSync('certs/....pem'),
    }
    server = https.createServer(options, root)
} else {
    server = http.createServer(root)
}

const { app } = expressWs(root, server)

app.use...
app.ws...
