I'm using Node.js, Express and MongoDB. I'm creating a password reset feature.
I've found this solution: it checks whether your username is correct or not, if yes, then it changes the password, otherwise it shows an error.
It works perfectly with username, but I want to use email rather than username to verify the user.
This is what im doing:
app.post("/reset", function (req, res) {
User.findByUsername(req.body.username).then(function (sanitizedUser) {
if (sanitizedUser) {
sanitizedUser.setPassword(req.body.password, function () {
sanitizedUser.save();
req.flash("success", "password resetted");
res.redirect("/login");
});
} else {
req.flash("error", "User doesnt exist");
res.redirect("/reset");
}
}, function (err) {
console.log(err);
res.redirect("/");
});
});
This is what I want:
User.find({email:req.body.email}).then(function (sanitizedUser) {
// ...snip...
});
But when I use it to find using email, the page just keeps reloading, without showing any error (if wrong) or change the password (if correct).
What seems to be the problem?
