I am trying to use async with node.js to handle multiple incoming POST requests to edit a JSON file. No matter how I refactor it, it will always make one of the edits and not the other. I though that using async.queue would force the operations to handle sequentially? What am I doing wrong?
My code:
var editHandler = function(task, done) {
var req = task.req;
var res = task.res;
fs.stat( "./app//public/json/" + "data.json", function(err, stat) {
if(err == null) {
console.log('File exists');
} else if(err.code == 'ENOENT') {
console.log("Error");
} else {
console.log('Some other error: ', err.code);
}
});
console.log(req.params.id);
console.log(req.body);
fs.readFile( "./app//public/json/" + "data.json", 'utf8', function (err, data) {
data = JSON.parse( data );
data[req.params.id] = req.body.school;
//console.log( data );
fs.writeFile("./app//public/json/" + "data.json", JSON.stringify(data), function (err){
if(err) {
return console.log(err);
}
})
res.redirect('/');
});
};
//Make a queue for the services
var serviceQ = async.queue(editHandler, 20);
serviceQ.drain = function() {
console.log('all services have been processed');
}
app.post('/edit_school/:id', function(req, res) {
serviceQ.push({req: req, res: res })
})
Thanks in advance for any insights! I am really new to using node.js for anything other than npm/webpack.
