Facing a major challenge with my function in sails.js (v12). I am attempting to retrieve all userDetail using async (v2.3) for deep populating my user info:
UserController.js:
userDetail: function (req, res) {
var currentUserID = authToken.getUserIDFromToken(req);
async.auto({
//Find the User
user: function (cb) {
User
.findOne({ id: req.params.id })
.populate('userFollowing')
.populate('userFollower')
.populate('trips', { sort: 'createdAt DESC' })
.exec(function (err, foundedUser) {
if (err) {
return res.negotiate(err);
}
if (!foundedUser) {
return res.badRequest();
}
// console.log('foundedUser :', foundedUser);
cb(null, foundedUser);
});
},
//Find me
me: function (cb) {
User
.findOne({ id: currentUserID })
.populate('myLikedTrips')
.populate('userFollowing')
.exec(function (err, user) {
var likedTripIDs = _.pluck(user.myLikedTrips, 'id');
var followingUserIDs = _.pluck(user.userFollowing, 'id');
cb(null, { likedTripIDs, followingUserIDs });
});
},
populatedTrip: ['user', function (results, cb) {
Trip.find({ id: _.pluck(results.user.trips, 'id') })
.populate('comments')
.populate('likes')
.exec(function (err, tripsResults) {
if (err) {
return res.negotiate(err);
}
if (!tripsResults) {
return res.badRequest();
}
cb(null, _.indexBy(tripsResults, 'id'));
});
}],
isLiked: ['populatedTrip', 'me', 'user', function (results, cb) {
var me = results.me;
async.map(results.user.trips, function (trip, callback) {
trip = results.populatedTrip[trip.id];
if (_.contains(me.likedTripIDs, trip.id)) {
trip.hasLiked = true;
} else {
trip.hasLiked = false;
}
callback(null, trip);
}, function (err, isLikedTrip) {
if (err) {
return res.negotiate(err);
}
cb(null, isLikedTrip);
});
}]
},
function finish(err, data) {
if (err) {
console.log('err = ', err);
return res.serverError(err);
}
var userFinal = data.user;
//userFinal.trips = data.isLiked;
userFinal.trips = "test";
return res.json(userFinal);
}
);
},
Tried several approaches to resolve this issue but nothing seems to be effective... I am successfully obtaining my array of trips (data.isLiked) but unable to populate my userFinal trips.
Attempted to assign a string value to userFinal.trips:
JSON response
{
"trips": [], // <-- issue lies here!!
"userFollower": [
{
"user": "5777fce1eeef472a1d69bafb",
"follower": "57e44a8997974abc646b29ca",
"id": "57efa5cf605b94666aca0f11"
}
],
"userFollowing": [
{
"user": "57e44a8997974abc646b29ca",
"follower": "5777fce1eeef472a1d69bafb",
"id": "5882099b9c0c9543706d74f6"
}
],

}
Question
How can I merge my array of trips (isLiked) into my user trips array? Why are my results not as expected?
Appreciate your insights and suggestions.
