MVC - Adding Update Functionality to the Model - Node.js Express & MongoDB - javascript

I'm developing a Node.js Express & MongoDB web application.
Actually, I'm trying to use the MVC feature. However, there is a problem with my code after that I added the update functionality to the model.
Indeed, when I try to update a post, my application crashes and I get the following error message:
TypeError: C:\Users\DELL\Desktop\node-com4muz-database-mvc\views\admin\posts-list.ejs:19

}
Actually, before I changed the code in the model file (see below) and the route file (see below), the update functionality was working fine.
That's the reason why I think we should compare both codes, before and after adding the update functionality to the model, to find where is the issue.
Here is my code before adding the update functionality to the model:
routes\admin\blog.js:
const express = require('express');
const mongodb = require('mongodb');
const multer = require('multer');
const storageConfig = multer.diskStorage({
destination: function (req, file, cb) {
cb(null, 'public/admin/images');
},
filename: function (req, file, cb) {
cb(null, Date.now() + '-' + file.originalname);
}
});
const db = require('../../data/database');
const Post = require('../../models/post');
const ObjectId = mongodb.ObjectId;
const upload = multer({ storage: storageConfig });
const router = express.Router();
router.get('/posts', async function (req, res) {
const posts = await db
.getDb()
.collection('posts')
.find({})
.project({ title: 1, summary: 1, 'author.name': 1 })
.toArray();
res.render('posts-list', { posts: posts });
});
router.get('/new-post', async function (req, res) {
const authors = await db.getDb().collection('authors').find().toArray();
res.render('create-post', { authors: authors });
});
router.post('/new-post', upload.single('image'), async function (req, res) {
const uploadedImageFile = req.file;
const authorId = new ObjectId(req.body.author);
const author = await db
.getDb()
.collection('authors')
.findOne({ _id: authorId });
const enteredTitle = req.body.title;
const enteredSummary = req.body.summary;
const enteredContent = req.body.content;
const date = new Date();
const selectedAuthor = {
author: {
id: authorId,

}
};
const selectedImage = uploadedImageFile.path;
const post = new Post(
enteredTitle,
enteredSummary,
enteredContent,
date,
selectedAuthor.author,
selectedImage
);
await post.save();
res.redirect('/posts');
});
router.get('/blog/:id/edit', async function (req, res) {
const postId = req.params.id;
const post = await db
.getDb()
.collection('posts')
.findOne(
{ _id: new ObjectId(postId) },
{ title: 1, summary: 1, content: 1 }
);
if (!post) {
return res.status(404).render('404');
}
res.render('update-post', { post: post });
});
router.post('/blog/:id/edit', async function (req, res) {
const postId = new ObjectId(req.params.id);
const result = await db
.getDb()
.collection('posts')
.updateOne(
{ _id: postId },
{
$set: {

// date: new Date()
}
}
);
res.redirect('/posts');
});
router.post('/blog/:id/delete', async function (req, res) {
const postId = new ObjectId(req.params.id);
const result = await db
.getDb()
.collection('posts')
.deleteOne({ _id: postId });
res.redirect('/posts');
});
router.get('/admin', async function (req, res) {
if (!res.locals.isAuth) {
// if (!req.session.user)
return res.status(401).render('401');
}
if (!res.locals.isAdmin) {
return res.status(403).render('403');
}
res.render('admin');
});
module.exports = router;
models\post.js:
const db = require('../data/database');
class Post {
constructor(title, summary, content, date, author, image, id) {
this.title = title;
this.summary = summary;
this.content = content;
this.date = date;

async save() {
const newPost = {

author: this.author,
imagePath: this.image
};
const result = await db.getDb().collection('posts').insertOne(newPost);
// console.log(result);
return result;

You're passing id as a wrong argument to when creating post object under /blog/:id/edit route, it doesn't get picked up, so it saves the post, instead of updating it, making other properties undefined.
Try this, pass 3 undefined arguments before id, which is passed as the last argument under /blog/:id/edit route:
const post = new Post(
enteredTitle,
enteredSummary,
enteredContent,
...[,,,], // pass 3 undefined arguments
req.params.id
);
await post.save();

also with postman sending request give success response with no errors
i've tried location.replace() but also it didn't work for me
and is there another trick from server to get to the desired location out from client side
then accepts a callback as a parameter.
then(() => location.assign('/[newUrl]'))

Connect mangoDB Atlas with nodejs

I can't connect to MongoDB database, yet I tried everything ! I have successfully replaced the password.
const mongoose = require("mongoose");
mongoose
.connect(
"mongodb+srv://vibess:0KksWIBp6slcBLm0#cluster0.iuvoi.mongodb.net/?retryWrites=true&w=majority",

You will need another function to complete the operation. the function is usually called run then you need to write all the operations of your server in the scope of this function. here is an example of a server of mine Also you need to declare the name of your database before text retrywrites=true

MongoDB insertOne() buffering timed out after 10000ms

I am trying to use 'POST' to create a new movie data with using MongoDB. but when I use 'postman' to post my data it kepts saying like this
{"message":"Operation movies.insertOne() buffering timed out after 10000ms"}
I will post three javascript files please let me know about my problem.
First : index
Second : movie(module)
Third : routes
const router = express.Router();
const Movie = require('./models/movie');
//Fetch all movies
router.get("/movies", async (req, res) => {
try {
const movies = await Movie.find();
res.send(movies)
} catch(err) {
return res.status(500).json({message: err.message});
}
})
// Add movie
router.post("/movies", async (req, res) => {
const movie = new Movie({
title: req.body.title,
director: req.body.director,
year: req.body.year
});
try {
const newMovie = await movie.save();
res.status(201).json({ newMovie });
} catch(err) {
return res.status(500).json({ message: err.message });
}
})
module.exports = router;
//from here is Movie.js
var mongoose = require('mongoose');
var Schema = mongoose.Schema;
var MovieSchema = new Schema(
{
title: {type: String, required: true, maxlength: 150},
director: {type: String, required: true, maxlength: 200},
year: {type: Number, required: true}
}
);
//Export model

// from here is routes.js
const express = require('express');
const router = express.Router();
const Movie = require('./models/movie');
//Fetch all movies
router.get("/movies", async (req, res) => {
try {
const movies = await Movie.find();
res.send(movies)
} catch(err) {
return res.status(500).json({message: err.message});
}
})

});
try {
const newMovie = await movie.save();
res.status(201).json({ newMovie });
} catch(err) {
return res.status(500).json({ message: err.message });
}
})
enter code here
module.exports = router;
I feel this is so hard to understand lol
Try to refactor your code like this:
router.post("/movies", async (req, res) => {
try {
let newMovie = await Movie.create(req.body);
res.status(201).json(newMovie);
} catch(err) {
return res.status(500).json({ message: err.message });
}
})
In the provided code I don't see you that you are connecting to the database using mongoose.connect for example:
mongoose.connect('mongodb://localhost/test', {useNewUrlParser: true, useUnifiedTopology: true});
Link for the docs.

how can i create object without using new keyword in javascript

logger.js
const { createLogger, format, transports } = require('winston');
class Logger {
constructor() {
this.logger = createLogger({
transports: new transports.File({
level: 'error',
filename: 'error.log',
format: format.json(),
``
}),
});
}
logError(err) {
this.logger.error(err);
}
}
module.exports = Logger;
As you can see I am using prototype method.So that I don't have to use new method to create object. I have attached all the 3 files. Just want to know how can I use logger in user.js file without using new keyword in logger.js file.
user.js
exports.postUser = async (req, res, next) => {
try {
console.log(`name:${JSON.stringify(req.body)}`)
throw new Error('this is an error on the post');
let user = new User({
name: req.body.name,
age: parseInt(req.body.age),
city: req.body.city,
status: 'ACTIVE'
})
let savedPost = await user.save();
console.log(`savedPost':${JSON.stringify(savedPost)}`);
res.json(savedPost);
} catch (err) {
console.log(`err:${err.toString()}`)
res.status(500).json({ message: err })
here I want to call the logger .So that it can return method, err, date.
logger.prototype.logError = function() {
return (`function:controller.postUser, error:${err.toString()} -method: ${req.method}- body:${JSON.stringify(req.body)} date:${new Date(Date.now()).toUTCString()}`)
}
};
routes.js
const router = require('express').Router();
const { json } = require('body-parser');
const User = require('../models/user');
const controller = require('../controllers/user');
const middle = require('../middleware/middleware')
/*routes*/
router.get('/', controller.getUser);
router.post('/', middle.verify, controller.postUser);
router.put('/:userId', controller.updateUser)
router.delete('/:userId', controller.deleteUser);
module.exports = router

EJS / Mongoose - Posts tend to show twice after POST, when I try to GET the same page, it shows up twice?

Well basically when I POST the create post controller, the post shows up once, the problem is when I GET the same page it shows up twice?
How can I solve this to make so that if the post already exists, then it should not show another time even tho I GET the page?
My goal is that altho the user post or gets the page, it should still be showing once if it exists.

bcrypt = require("bcryptjs");
const postSchema = new Schema({
title: String,
description: String,
context: String,
author: {
type: Schema.Types.ObjectId,
}
});
const userSchema = new Schema({
name: {
type: String,
required: true
},
email: {
type: String,
required: true,
},
password: {
type: String,
required: true
},
posts: [postSchema]
});
userSchema.pre("save", async function save(next) {
const user = this;
if (!user.isModified("password")) return next();
const hashedPassword = await bcrypt.hash(user.password, 10);
user.password = hashedPassword;
next();
});
const Post = mongoose.model("Post", postSchema);
const User = mongoose.model("User", userSchema);
module.exports = {
User,
Post
}
I had an issue when it came to using the f5 button, it repeated the POST part, but it is fine now, it was actually not a real issue just a bug so to speak.
