I’m trying to display an error message when a user tries to sign in with an unregistered user but I’m not able to get that error message on the frontend(reactjs) that I am sending from my backend(nodejs, express, MongoDB).
I am using redux to handle the state of the react app.
user login form onSubmit code:
const onSubmit = (data) => {
if (isLogin) {
dispatch(signin(data, history));
} else {
dispatch(signup(data, history));
}
};
actions creators for auth
import * as api from "../api";
export const signin = (formData, history) => async (dispatch) => {
try {
// login the user
const { data } = await api.signIn(formData);
dispatch({ type: "AUTH", data });
history.push("/");
} catch (error) {
console.log(error);
dispatch({ type: "ERROR", data: error.response.data.message });
}
};
export const signup = (formData, history) => async (dispatch) => {
try {
// sign up the user
const { data } = await api.signUp(formData);
dispatch({ type: "AUTH", data });
history.push("/");
} catch (error) {
console.log(error);
}
};
reducers for auth:
const authReducer = (state = { authData: null }, action) => {
switch (action.type) {
case "AUTH":
localStorage.setItem("profile", JSON.stringify({ ...action?.data }));
return { state, authData: action?.data };
case "LOGOUT":
localStorage.clear();
return { state, authData: null };
case "ERROR":
return { state, authData: action?.data };
default:
return state;
}
};
export default authReducer;
Backend sign in code
const signin = async (req, res) => {
const { email, password } = req.body;
try {
const existingUser = await User.findOne({ email });
if (!existingUser)
return res.status(404).json({ message: "User doesn't exist." });
const isPasswordCorrect = await bcrypt.compare(
password,
existingUser.password
);
if (!isPasswordCorrect)
res.status(404).json({ message: "Invalid Credentials" });
const token = jwt.sign(
{ email: existingUser.email, id: existingUser._id },
"test",
{ expiresIn: "1h" }
);
res.status(200).json({ result: existingUser, token });
} catch (error) {
res.status(500).json({ message: "Something went wrong" });
}
};
Anyone, please help me with this.
