Hello guys, I’m having troubles with this project. I think I’m done but I keep getting the same error, before you say “read the error”, I have already read the error, and I think my code provides the right answer.
Here is my code (It’s quite messy):
const express = require('express');
const app = express();
const mongoose = require('mongoose');
const bodyParser = require('body-parser');
const cors = require('cors');
require('dotenv').config();
mongoose.connect(process.env.MONGOURI);
const userSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
username: String
}), User = mongoose.model('User', userSchema);
const exerciseSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
username: String,
description: String,
duration: Number,
date: Date
}), Exercise = mongoose.model('Exercise', exerciseSchema);
const logSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
username: String,
count: Number,
log: [Object]
}), Log = mongoose.model('Log', logSchema);
app.use(cors())
app.use(express.static('public'))
app.get('/', (req, res) => {
res.sendFile(__dirname + '/views/index.html')
});
/*
app.use('/', (req, res, next)=>{
console.log(req.method, req.originalUrl);
next();
})
*/
app.get('/api/users', (req, res)=>{
User.find((err, data)=>{
if (err) return res.json(err);
res.json(data);
})
})
app.post('/api/users', bodyParser.urlencoded({
extended: false
}), (req, res)=>{
const username = req.body.username;
User.findOne({username: username}, (err, data)=>{
if (err) return res.json(err);
if (data){
res.json(data);
} else {
const user = new User({username: username});
user.save((err, data)=>{
if (err) return res.json(err);
res.json({
username: data.username,
_id: data._id
});
})
const log = new Log({
username: username,
count: 0,
log: []
})
log.save();
}
})
});
app.post('/api/users/:_id/exercises', bodyParser.urlencoded({
extended: false
}), (req, res)=>{
const id = req.params["_id"];
User.findById(id, (err, data)=>{
if (err) return res.json(err);
if (data){
const {
description, duration, date
} = req.body;
const user = data;
const dateFormatted =
date ? new Date(date) : new Date();
if (dateFormatted == "Invalid Date") {
return res.json({
error: dateFormatted
});
}
const exercise = new Exercise({
username: user.username,
description: description,
duration: duration,
date: dateFormatted
})
exercise.save((err, data)=>{
if (err) res.json(err);
const response = {
username: user.username,
description: data.description,
duration: data.duration,
date: data.date.toDateString(),
_id: user._id
}
res.json(response);
})
Log.find({
username: user.username
}).exec((err, data)=>{
if (err) return;
const document = data[0];
document.count++;
document.log.push({
description: exercise.description,
duration: exercise.duration,
date: exercise.date.toDateString()
});
document.save((err, data)=>{
if (err) return console.log(err);
})
});
} else {
res.json({
error: "User not found"
})
}
})
})
app.get('/api/users/:_id/logs', (req, res)=>{
const id = req.params._id;
User.findById(id, (err, data)=>{
if (err) return res.json(err);
if (data){
const username = data.username;
Log.find({
username: username
}, (err, data)=>{
if (err) return res.json(err)
let logs = data[0].log;
if (req.query.from){
let fromDate = new Date(req.query.from);
fromDate = fromDate.getTime();
logs = logs.filter(ex=>{
let date = new Date(ex.date);
date = date.getTime();
return date >= fromDate;
})
}
if (req.query.to){
let toDate = new Date(req.query.to);
toDate = toDate.getTime();
logs = logs.filter(ex=>{
let date = new Date(ex.date);
date = date.getTime();
return date <= toDate;
})
}
if (req.query.limit){
const limit = req.query.limit;
logs = logs.slice(0, limit);
}
const response = {
username: username,
count: logs.length,
_id: data[0]._id,
log: logs
}
res.json(response);
console.log(req.originalUrl);
console.log(response);
});
} else {
res.json({
error: "User not found"
});
}
})
})
const listener = app.listen(process.env.PORT || 3000, () => {
console.log('Your app is listening on port ' + listener.address().port)
})
Here’s the error I keep getting:
The date property of any object in the log array that is returned from GET /api/users/:id/logs should be a string.. Use the dateString format of the Date API.
I debugged a little bit, and this is what my code was supposed to answer:
And my code sent this:
I don’t know how to solve this, because my code takes the date directly from the input, and with other cases it works. Any help please?
. I went through the code couple of times, tried testing it locally, but didn’t find any issues.
