How to add middlewares: [ parseToken ] to some routes and other not in same route space?

Simple:

export const Companies = new Service({
  model: Company,
  endpoint: '/companies',
  //middlewares: [ parseToken ],
  custom: {
    //need middleware here
    async 'POST /in-radius' (req) {
      
      let { body: { lon, lat, distance, measure } } = req
      const companies = await Company.getCompaniesInRadius(lon, lat, distance, measure)

      return {companies: companies}
    },
    //dont need middleware here
    async 'GET /:id' (req) {

      const { params: { id } } = req

      const company = await Company.get(id).getJoin({get_category: true}).run()

      return company

    },

  },

})

Not issue, upgrade maybe - one service for all models

Hi,

you got this index.js with bunch of services exported. But, logic is same for every of them. What i mean is this

service1.js - uses post/delete/patch/put
service2.js - uses post/delete/patch/put
service3.js - uses post/delete/patch/put

What i am thinking is to use one service for everything with endpoint taken from url model name.
So instead of having same number of services as number models, you just have one service.

What do you think? Is this doable?

problem with update query

I send to put to /url/:id

{
"some_key":"some_value"
}

and get this error:

ReqlDriverError: Unrecognized option some_key in update after:

Wrong password while connecting to db (can not be turth)

Hi,

I can not connect to remote or local db. I am getting error:

Entering slow growth mode
Fail to create a new connection for the connection pool. Error:{"msg":"Error 12:Wrong password","message":"Error 12:Wrong password.","isOperational":true}

I get bunch of that errors. I know username and password are correct since i have some python and go application that are using same username/password combination.

This is config:

export const thinky = Thinky({
  host: DB_HOST,
  port: DB_PORT,
  db: DB_NAME,
  user: DB_USER,
  pass: DB_PASS,
})

Bunch of errors on post ReferenceError: hook is not defined

So here it is for now:

1. ReferenceError: hook is not defined when trying to do post at
   await hook( 'before create write', req, body )

2. If i remove hook then i am getting model.create is not a function
   in here const obj = await model.create( body )
