how to return json data in after save using node js mongoose

Question

Using save function inserting the data using post method, in the same method need to get same json data what we inserted document with an id

apiRoutes.post('/doctor', function(req, res){
      if(!req.body.Name || !req.body.password){
        res.json({success: false, msg: 'please pass the username and password'});
      }else{
        var newUser = new Doctor({
            Name:req.body.Name,
            password : req.body.password,
        });
        newUser.save(function(err){
          if(err){
            res.json({success: false, msg :'username alredy existes'});
          }else{
            res.json({success: true, msg : 'Successfull created user'});
          }
        });
      }
    });

In the res.json need to return the same document name and password with _id of the documnet

Are you using express as well?

According to your requirement you want to enter name and password in db via a POST method. Then you can simple do this.

    apiRoutes.post('/doctor', function (req, res) {
        var newUser = req.Collection;
        var name = req.body.Name;
        var password = req.body.password;
        var record = new newUser({
            name: name,
            password: password,
        });
        if (name && password) {
            record.save(function (err, result) {
                if (err) {
                    res.json({status: 0, message:" username alredy existes"})
                } else {
                    res.json({status: 1, name: name, password: password, message: " Successfull created user"});
                }
            })
        } else {
            res.json({status: 0, msg: "Invalid Fields"});
        }
    });

Shekhar Tyagi Over a year ago

you want mongoid for which this name and password stored right, then use id: result._id

Shekhar Tyagi Over a year ago

have you define a collection name var newUser = req.Collection; similar in your db.js file

saiibitta Over a year ago

res.json({status: 1, name: name, password: password,id:result._id, message: " Successfull created user"}); replace this line. hope it works

I think you can use the .get() method with the /path/:id as the first param. something like this:

apiRoutes.get('/doctor/:id', function(req, res){
 // your code goes here
});

So, from the client side you can send your get request with something like this /doctor/65431 (id)

More info on the express .get method here

        res.json({success: false, msg: 'please pass the username and password'});
      }else{
        var newUser = new Doctor({
            Name:req.body.Name,
            password : req.body.password,
        });

            res.send({'success': 'true', 'msg' : 'Successfull created user','data':newUser});
          }
        });
      }
    });
