When I console.log the req.body it gives me:
[Object: null prototype] {
'shoe[name]': 'Shoe Name',
'shoe[description]': '',
'shoe[pictures]': '',
'shoe[collections]': 'Shoe Collection'
}
But when I console.log req.body.shoe It prints undefined,
been breaking my head for a few days now
The form:
<form action="/shoes/" method="post">
<input type="text" name="shoe[name]" placeholder="Name of the shoe">
<textarea name="shoe[description]" cols="30" rows="10"></textarea>
<input type="file" name="shoe[pictures]">
<input type="text" name="shoe[collections]">
<input type="submit" value="Post the Shoe">
</form>
Shoe Model:
const mongoose = require('mongoose');
const shoeSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
name: { type: String, unique: true },
description: String,
displayPicture: mongoose.Schema.Types.ObjectId,
pictures: [ { type: mongoose.Schema.Types.ObjectId } ],
collections: [ { type: mongoose.Schema.Types.ObjectId, unique: true } ],
dateOfPublish: { type: Date, default: Date.now },
comments: [
{
userId: { type: mongoose.Schema.Types.ObjectId, unique: true, ref: 'Comment' }
}
]
});
module.exports = mongoose.model('Shoe', shoeSchema);
Node.js + Express create route:
//Create
router.post('/', (req, res) => {
console.log(req.body.shoe);
Shoe.create(req.body.shoe, (err, shoe) => {
if (err) {
console.log(err);
} else {
return res.redirect('/');
}
});
});
You cannot implement the below way the html part
<input type="file" name="shoe[pictures]">
You yourself is seeing that
[Object: null prototype] {
'shoe[name]': 'Shoe Name',
'shoe[description]': '',
'shoe[pictures]': '',
'shoe[collections]': 'Shoe Collection'
}
'shoe[pictures]' is the entire key and you are only accessing req.body.shoe
First your entire HTML need to be changed.
<form action="/shoes/" method="post">
<input type="text" name="name" placeholder="Name of the shoe">
<textarea name="description" cols="30" rows="10"></textarea>
<input type="file" name="pictures">
<input type="text" name="collections">
<input type="submit" value="Post the Shoe">
</form>
And then in backend in req.body object you will receive all the properties name,description,pictures,collections
After that you can access
req.body.name
req.body.description etc
Then in backend you need to define
var shoe = {...req.body}
and then you can use shoe object
<% include ../partials/header %>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-4">
<h2><%= user.firstName + " " + user.lastName %></h2>
<div class="thumbnail">
<img src="<%= user.avatar %>" alt="user profile image">
<div class="caption"><%= user.email %></div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-md-8">
``` <h3><%= user.username %>'s campgrounds</h3>
<% campgrounds.forEach(campground => { %>
<div class="col-md-4 col-sm-6">

<h4 class="caption"><%= campground.name %></h4>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<% }); %>
</ul>
</div>
Edit Profile
</div>
<% include ../partials/footer %>
Can you see that %include is written here. if that statement is not present in your code it will not work. That is what i am trying to explain from that time

In your there is nothing like that
The problem was with the body-parser, needed to use the qs library (true) instead of querystring(false) in the following line:
app.use(require('body-parser').urlencoded({ extended: true }));
originally extended was set to false.

I have this working for a different Schema (I can show this code if needed) but when I tried to recreate it for another, it won't update my DB. It's connected to a MongoDB database and this functionality works with another Schema but this one does not
I've hit a dead end and have no idea a this point... Any help would be appreciated!!
Here is the POST controller
console.log("post");
const userId = req.body.userId;
const updatedName = req.body.name;

const updatedDepartment = req.body.department;
const updatedJobtitle = req.body.jobtitle;
const updatedLinemanager = req.body.linemanager;
const updatedNinumber = req.body.ninumber;
// const updatedJoinDate = req.body.joindate;
// console.log(req.body);
User.findById(userId)
.then((user) => {
isadmin = user.isadmin;
name = updatedName;
password = updatedPassword;
email = updatedEmail;
skype = updatedSkype;
department = updatedDepartment;
jobtitle = updatedJobtitle;
linemanager = updatedLinemanager;
ninumber = updatedNinumber;
joindate = user.joindate;
return user.save();
})
.then((result) => {
console.log("User EDITED!");
res.redirect("/staffdir");
})
.catch((err) => console.log(err));
};
The User model

Please use findByIdAndUpdate() function instead of findById() and save()
for example;
User.findByIdAndUpdate(userId, {
isadmin: user.isadmin,
name: updatedName,
...
})
.then((result) => {
console.log("User EDITED!");
res.redirect("/staffdir");
})
.catch((err) => console.log(err));
I can't get the values of these three fields; it only returns an empty value (a space).
The ids are correctly set in the form.
<script>
const data = {
id: document.getElementById('idbook').value,
name: document.getElementById('namebook').value,
price: document.getElementById('pricebook').value
};
function myFunction(){
const http = new easyHTTP;
http.put('https://otg0gf6qw5.execute-api.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/books',
data, function(err, post){
if(err) {
console.log(err);
} else {
console.log(post);
}
});
</script>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<div class="container">
<form method="post" id="save" action="javascript:myFunction()">
<h1>Insert Book</h1>
<div class="field">
<label for="id">ID Book:</label>
<input type="text" id="idbook" name="id"/>
<small></small>
</div>
<div class="field">
<label for="id">Name Book:</label>
<input type="text" id="namebook" name="nameBook"/>
<small></small>
</div>
<div class="field">
<label for="id">Price Book:</label>

<small></small>
</div>
<div class="field">
<button type="submit" class="full">SAVE BOOK</button>
</div>
</form>
</div>
When I enter the values, and click on SAVE I get an empty json, i.e .:
{"id":"","name":"","price":""}
with error:
"One or more parameter values are not valid. The AttributeValue for a key attribute cannot contain an empty string value. Key: id"
The problem is that you are getting the values from the input fields as soon as the script runs, so you will get empty strings because the inputs at that point are empty.
To get the input values after the form is submitted, put the data variable inside the myFunction() method, it's important to read the values right before sending the data.
Example
<script>
function myFunction() {
const data = {
id: document.getElementById('idbook').value,
name: document.getElementById('namebook').value,
price: document.getElementById('pricebook').value
};
const http = new easyHTTP;
http.put('https://otg0gf6qw5.execute-api.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/books', data, function(err, post) {
if(err) {
console.log(err);
} else {
console.log(post);
}
});
};
</script>
I don't know if this is what you mean, but I did let the data save in the console log when you press submit
<div class="container">
<form method="post" id="save" action="javascript:myFunction()">
<h1>Insert Book</h1>
<div class="field">
<label for="id">ID Book:</label>
<input type="text" id="idbook" name="id"/>
<small></small>
</div>
<div class="field">
<label for="id">Name Book:</label>
<input type="text" id="namebook" name="nameBook"/>
<small></small>
</div>
<div class="field">
<label for="id">Price Book:</label>
<input type="text" id="pricebook" name="priceBook"/>
<small></small>
</div>
<div class="field">
<button type="submit" class="full">SAVE BOOK</button>

</form>
<script>
function myFunction(){
const data = {
id: document.getElementById('idbook').value,
name: document.getElementById('namebook').value,
price: document.getElementById('pricebook').value
};
console.log(data);
}
</script>

I am trying to create parent-child like nested system where child has same schema as of parent.Below is my parent schema, here children refers to the parentSchema again,
var mongoose = require("mongoose");
var parentSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
name: String,
children:[
{
ref: this
}
],
});
module.exports = mongoose.model("Parent", parentSchema);
Routes looks like this
app.get("/", function(req, res){
Parent.find({}).populate("children").exec(function(err, allParents){
if(err){
console.log(err);
}else{
res.render("index",{parents: allParents});
}
});
});
app.post("/", function(req,res){
var name = req.body.name;
var desc = req.body.desc;
var newParent = {name: name, description: desc}
Parent.create(newParent, function(err, newlyCreate){
if(err){
console.log(err);
}else{
res.redirect("/");
}
});
});
app.post("/:id", function(req, res){
Parent.findById(req.params.id, function(err, parent){
if(err){
console.log(err);
res.redirect("/");
}else{
parent.children.push(req.body.child);
parent.save();
console.log(parent.children);
res.redirect("/");
}
});
});
The problem is when I send data from form to post route it prints it but after pushing it into parent.children and then printing parent.children is shows null. Where is the problem???
EJS page looks like below:-
<form action="/" method="POST">
<div class="form-group">
<input type="text" name="name" placeholder="Name">
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<input type="text" name="desc" placeholder="Description">
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<button class=btn-primary btn-block">Submit</button>
Go Back
</div>
</form>
<div class="row">
<% parents.forEach(function(module){%>
<ul class="list-group">
<li class="list-group-item" style="margin-bottom: 5%;">
<h2><%= module.name%></h2>
<%= module.description %>
<% console.log(module.children) %>
<%module.children.forEach(function(node){%>
<% console.log(node) %>
<%});%>
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div>
<form action="/<%= module._id %>" method="POST">
<div class="form-group">
<input type="text" name="name" placeholder="Name">
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<input type="text" name="desc" placeholder="Description">
</div>
<button>Submit</button>
</form>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<% }); %>
</div>
Can anyone tell where is the problem in above code or can anyone suggest any other way to make this type of parent-child structure????
It seems that parent.save() is asynchronus. Maybe you can try this instead.
parent.save().then(()=>{
console.log(parent.children);
res.redirect("/");
});
or you can use async-await after putting async before function definition,
await parent.save();
console.log(parent.children);
res.redirect("/");
Please do write in comment if problem still persists.
