Issue Tracker - PUT problem. update work locally, but not on database

[pinkvenommy]

Hello,

Im working on Issue Tracker project. My console showed the update is successfully, but actually did not update on mongo atlas database.

this is the doc i am trying to change the value of ‘issue_text’ from ‘before update’ to ‘after update’:

console showed the doc is updated successfully(issue_text is updated):

but when i check my mongo atlas database, the ‘issue_text’ didn’t update:

here is my code:

.put(async function (req, res) {
      // get the params from url.
      let project = req.params.project;
      const {
        _id,
        issue_title,
        issue_text,
        created_by,
        assigned_to,
        status_text,
        open,
      } = req.body;

      const update = {};
      // using loop to get each update info from req.body
      for (const key of Object.keys(req.body)) {
        if (req.body[key] !== "") {
          update[key] = req.body[key];
        }
      }

      try {
        ProjectModel.findOne({ name: project }, async (err, projectdata) => {
          if (err || !projectdata) {
            res.json({ error: "could not update", _id: _id });
          } else {
            console.log("we find the project");
            console.log(projectdata);

            projectdata.issues.forEach((issue) => {
              console.log(issue._id);
              if (issue._id == _id) {
                console.log("we find the issue");
                console.log(issue);
                issue.issue_title = issue_title || issue.issue_title;
                issue.issue_text = issue_text || issue.issue_text;
                issue.created_by = created_by || issue.created_by;
                issue.assigned_to = assigned_to || issue.assigned_to;
                issue.status_text = status_text || issue.status_text;
                issue.open = open;
                issue.updated_on = new Date();
                projectdata.save((err, data) => {
                  if (err || !data) {
                    res.json({ error: "could not update", _id: _id });
                  } else {
                    console.log("update is successfully");
                    console.log(data);
                    res.json({ result: "successfully updated", _id: _id });
                  }
                });
              }
            });
          }
        });
      } catch (err) {
        console.log(err);
      }
    })

I saw many people using projectdata.issues.id(_id) to get the issue by ID. when i used this code, i got a TypeError: projectdata.issues.id is not a function. Instead, i used forEach to get the issue by id.
