this is the model Hotel.js file

import mongoose from "mongoose";
const {Schema} = mongoose

const HotelSchema = new mongoose.Schema({

    name:{
        type:String,
        required:true
    },
    type:{
        type:String,
        required:true
    },
    city:{
        type:String,
        required:true
    },
    address:{
        type:String,
        required:true
    },
    distance:{
        type:String,
        required:true
    },
    photos:{
        type:[String],
        
    },
    title:{
        type:String,
        required:true
    },
    desc:{
        type: String,
        required:true
    },
   
    rating:{
        type: Number,
     min:0,
     max:5
    },
    rooms:{
        type:[String]
        
    },
// for showing cheapest hotels
    cheapestPrice:{
        type:Number,
        required:true
    },

    // for showing featured hotels
    featured:{
        type:Boolean,
        deafult:false,
    }



})

export default mongoose.model("Hotel",HotelSchema)

This is the route hotel.js

import express from "express"
import Hotel from "../models/Hotel.js";
const router = express.Router();


router.post("/", async (req,res)=>{

const newHotel = new Hotel(req.body);

    try{
        const savedHotel = await newHotel.save()
        res.status(200).json(savedHotel)

}catch(err){
res.status(500).json(err)
}

})
export default router

This is the main index.js file

import express from "express"
import dotenv from "dotenv"
import mongoose from "mongoose"
import hotelRoute from './routes/hotels.js'

const app = express()
dotenv.config()

const connect = async () =>{

    try{

await mongoose.connect(process.env.MONGO)
console.log("Connected to mongodb")
    }catch(err){
        throw err;

    }
}
mongoose.connection.on("connected",()=>{
    console.log("mongodb connected")
})
mongoose.connection.on("disconnected",()=>{
    console.log("mongodb disconnected")
})


//Middleware
app.use(express.urlencoded({extended:true}))
app.use(express.json())


app.use("/api/hotel",hotelRoute)

app.listen(8000,() =>{
    connect()
    console.log("Connected to backend")
})
}

In the console I'm getting

Connected to backend
mongodb connected
Connected to mongodb

CodePudding user response：

first you must check your req.body data. you can validate your req.body with joi validator

and (or) express-joi-validation.

in mongoose you must generate a model from your schema:

const Kitten = mongoose.model('Kitten', kittySchema);
