As part of my API development, I'm working on creating a register route. However, I encountered an issue when trying to utilize the User.function - AddUser method from my model file. The error message mentions an unexpected token .. Below is the code snippet:
router.post('/register', (req, res, next) => {
let newUser = new User({
username: req.body.username,
name: req.body.name,
email: req.body.email,
password: req.body.password,
photoUrl: req.body.photoUrl
})
User.addUser(newUser, (err, user) => {
if (err) {
res.send('Failed');
} else {
res.send('Registered');
}
});
});
For reference, here is the relevant section from the model file:
const mongoose = require('mongoose');
const schema = mongoose.Schema;
const bcryptjs = require('bcryptjs');
const userSchema = new schema({
username: { type: String, required: true },
name: { type: String },
email: { type: String, required: true },
password: { type: String, required: true },
photoUrl: { type: String }
});
const User = module.exports = mongoose.model('User', userSchema, 'users');
module.exports.addUser(newUser, callback) => {
bcrypt.genSalt(10, (err, salt) => {
bcrypt.hash(newUser.password, salt, (err, hash) => {
if (err) throw err;
newUser.password = hash;
newUser.save(callback);
});
});
}
