Seeking assistance as I am unable to figure out how to place a set of information into an array named "teamDetails". Here is the relevant /post item from server.js:
app.post('/create', (req, res) => {
console.log('Post command received');
console.log(req.body);
console.log(req.body.data.teamDetails[0]);
//Need to push 'teamDetails' variable as an object into an array of the same name
var teamDetailsObj = {
// Modified for Postman
"teamName": req.body.data.teamDetails[0].teamName,
"teamNameShort": req.body.data.teamDetails[0].teamNameShort,
"teamfounded": req.body.data.teamDetails[0].teamFounded,
"teamHome": req.body.data.teamDetails[0].teamHome
};
console.log(teamDetails);
var newTeam = new Team({
"data.added": new Date(),
"data.entry": req.body.data.entry
});
newTeam.save().then((doc) => {
console.log("This is newTeam.data: " + newTeam.data);
console.log("This is teamDetailsObj: " + teamDetailsObj);
newTeam.data.teamDetails.push(teamDetailsObj);
var teamId = doc.id;
res.render('success.hbs', {teamId});
console.log("Team Added - " + teamId);
}, (e) => {
res.status(400).send(e);
});
});
Here is my team.js model:
var mongoose = require('mongoose');
var ObjectID = mongoose.Schema.Types.ObjectId;
var Mixed = mongoose.Schema.Types.Mixed;
var Schema = mongoose.Schema;
var Team = mongoose.model('Team', {
data: {
entry: {
type: String,
default: "USER.INPUT"
},
added: {
type: Date,
default: Date.Now
},
teamDetails: [
{
teamName: {
type: String,
trim: true,
required: true,
default: "First Team"
},
teamNameShort: {
type: String,
trim: true,
uppercase: true,
maxlength: 3,
required: true
},
teamFounded: {
type: Number,
maxlength: 4
},
teamHomeCity: {
type: String
}
}
]
}
});
module.exports = {Team};
Lastly, the sample data being sent via Postman:
{
"data": {
"entry": "Postman.Entry",
"teamDetails": [
{
"teamName": "Test Teamname",
"teamNameShort": "TTN",
"teamFounded": "1986",
"teamHome": "London",
"players": [
{
"player1Name": "Test Player 1",
"player1Position": "Forward",
"player1Nationality": "GBR"
},
{
"player2Name": "Test Player 2",
"player2Position": "Defender",
"player2Nationality": "UKR"
},
{
"player3Name": "Test Player 3",
"player3Position": "Goaltender",
"player3Nationality": "IRL",
"captain": true
}
],
"coachingStaff": {
"headCoach": "Derp McHerpson",
"teamManager": "Plarp McFlarplarp"
}
}
]
}
}
(Note: players section not related)
The issue with the current code is that the resulting entry for teamDetails remains an empty array. Unable to push teamDetailsObj as expected.
Would appreciate any assistance provided. Thank you.
