When i put <%= products %> into my view, it prints [Object Object] so I'm assuming that the mongoose resultset is an object. Now, I am trying to loop over products object but it says products.forEach is not a function.
This is my index route:
var express = require('express');
var router = express.Router();
var Product = require('../model/product');
/* GET home page. */
router.get('/', function(req, res, next) {
var products = Product.find();
res.render('index', { title: 'Express', products: products });
});
module.exports = router;
with the code above,I am just retrieving it from the db and passing it as an object. I have tried using var products = Product.find({}).toArray(); but got no luck. And another solution I tried is using this code:
var products = Product.find();
var data = JSON.stringify(products);
res.render('index', { title: 'Express', products: data });
Converting circular structure to JSONerror.
This is my index view:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title><%= title %></title>
<link rel='stylesheet' href='/stylesheets/style.css' />
</head>
<body>
<h1><%= title %></h1>
<p>Welcome to <%= title %></p>
<% products.forEach(function(product) { %>
<p><%= product.title %></p>
<% }); %>
</body>
</html>
Product Schema:
var mongoose = require('mongoose');
var Schema = mongoose.Schema;
var schema = new Schema({
imagePath: { type: String, required: true },
title: { type: String, required: true },
description: { type: String, required: true },
price: { type: Number, required: true }
});
module.exports = mongoose.model('Product', schema);
How is the proper way of doing it?
