I have two questions.

I have a code snippet below

var http = require('http'),      
    https = require('https'),
    crypto = require('crypto');var S = require('string');var url = 
require('url');var req = require('request');
var path = url.parse(req.url).pathname;

The error message points at 

var path = url.parse(req.url).pathname;

saying throw new TypeError("Parameter 'url' must be a string. not " + 
typeof url)

What is wrong with that statemet? Do I have to put that statement in a 
function? But, I do not know what function I should create for dong url 
parsing.

My second question refers to the code snippet below. Can I compare the path 
that I extract from a URL and compare it with a string using *==* ?

if ((S(path) == '/lens/v1/ping') || (S(path) == '/lens/v1/PING')) {
    res.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type': 'text/plain'});
    res.write('The lens route is up and running!\n');
    res.end();} else {
    res.writeHead(404, 'Not Found');
    res.end('HTTP 1.1 404/Not Found');}

Thank you very much in advance.
