I'm using mongoose and I would like that when I get all users send me uid instead of _id.
const allUssers = (req, res, next) => {
try {
User.find({})
.select("username")
.select("email")
.select("image")
.exec((err, users) => {
if (err) {
return res.status(400).json({
ok: false,
msg: "Error listing users",
});
}
return res.status(200).json({
ok: true,
users: users,
});
});
} catch (err) {
return res.status(500).json({
ok: false,
msg: "Please contact with administrator",
});
}
};
CodePudding user response:
You can update your schema to use an alias:
let User = new Schema({
_id: { type: String, alias: "uid" }
});
Or you can map your users to something different:
return res.status(200).json({
ok: true,
users: users.map(({ _id, ...user }) => ({ uid: _id, ...user }),
});
