but I can use find all api and findByID.
This took me hours , please help , so depress :(
app.js
var express = require('express');
var bodyParser = require('body-parser');
var app = express();
songs = require('./routes/route');
var jsonParser = bodyParser.json();
app.post('/songs', jsonParser, function (req, res) {
if (!req.body) return res.sendStatus(400);
app.get('/', function (req, res) {
res.send('Hello World!');
});
app.listen(3000, function () {
console.log('Example app listening on port 3000!');
});
app.get('/songs',songs.findAll);
app.get('/findById/:id',songs.findById);
app.get('/songs',songs.addSong);
route
var mongoose = require('mongoose');
var mongo = require('mongodb');
var uri = "mongodb://XXXX:XXXX#ds061365.mongolab.com:61365/aweitest";
mongoose.connect(uri);
// we're connected!
var db = mongoose.connection.db;
var BSON = require('bson').BSONPure;
var body = require('body-parser');
db.on('error', console.error.bind(console, 'connection errrrrrrrror:'));
db.once('open', function() {
console.log("mongodb is connected!!");
});
exports.findAll = function(req, res) {
db.collection('songs',function(err, collection) {
collection.find().toArray(function(err, items) {
res.send(items);
});
});
};
exports.findById = function(req, res) {
var id = req.params.id;
console.log('Retrieving song: ' + id);
db.collection('songs', function(err, collection)
collection.findOne({'_id':new BSON.ObjectID(id)}, function(err, item) {
res.send(item);
});
});
};
exports.addSong = function(req, res) {
var song = req.query;
console.log('Adding song: ' + JSON.stringify(song));
db.collection('songs', function(err, collection) {
collection.insert(song, {safe:true}, function(err, result) {
{console.log('Success: ' + JSON.stringify(result[0]));
res.send(result[0]);
}
});
});
};

Okay so I changed a few things in your code. I'm successfully getting the request body in the app.js file. Do have a look at the code.
route.js
var mongoose = require('mongoose');
var mongo = require('mongodb');
var uri = "mongodb://localhost:27017/test";
mongoose.connect(uri);
// we're connected!
var db = mongoose.connection.db;
var BSON = require('bson').BSONPure;
var body = require('body-parser');
db.on('error', console.error.bind(console, 'connection errrrrrrrror:'));
//db = mongoose.connection.db;
db.once('open', function() {
console.log("mongodb is connected!!");
});
exports.addSong = function(req, res) {
var song = req.body;
console.log('Adding song: ' + JSON.stringify(song));
db.collection('songs', function(err, collection) {
collection.insert(song, {safe:true}, function(err, result) {
if (err) {
res.send({'error':'An error has occurred'});
} else {
console.log('Success: ' + JSON.stringify(result[0]));
res.send(result[0]);
}
});
});
}
Notice that I have changed the URI to localhost, so change it again to the one you specified.
app.js
var express = require('express');
var app = express();
var bodyParser = require('body-parser');
app.use(bodyParser.json()); // support json encoded bodies
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: true })); // support encoded bodies
songs = require('./routes/route');
app.post('/songs', function(req, res) {
console.log("Request.Body : " + JSON.stringify(req.body));
if (!req.body) return res.sendStatus(400);
songs.addSong(req, res);
});
app.get('/', function (req, res) {
res.send('Hello World!');
});
app.listen(3000, function () {
console.log('Example app listening on port 3000!');
});
app.get('/songs',songs.addSong);
Since your only problem was that you weren't able to get the request body. You'll be able to get it with this code.
Also since your app.get('/songs',songs.addSong); is of type GET, you'll not be able to send POST Data through it. So change it to
app.post('/songs',songs.addSong);
Hope this helps.
