I was trying to get my followers post and its working properly.
let followingUsersPost = await Post.find({ user: { $in: currentUser.following } })
.populate('user', '_id name username')
.sort({ createdAt: -1 });
But Now i also want to search my own posts, in same query (to get all data and merge it together)
This is what i have tried, but its showing only my posts
let followingUsersPost = await Post.find({ user: { $in: currentUser.following }, user: currentUser._id })
.populate('user', '_id name username')
.sort({ createdAt: -1 });
CodePudding user response:
The second user
field in your query overwrites the first.
You can just merge following and current users ids. For example:
let followingUsersPost = await Post.find({ user: { $in: [...currentUser.following, currentUser._id] } })
.populate('user', '_id name username')
.sort({ createdAt: -1 });
