How to use

Each branch corresponds to a specific lesson in the playlist. For example the lesson-10 branch will contain the code at the END of lesson 10.

Not every lesson has a corresponding branch (e.g. where the lesson added nothing else to the code).

Hi, I wanted to write the code in ES6, however nothing is being returned. Can someone check my code please?

"geo near accepts just one argument when querying for a GeoJSON point. Extra field found: $maxDistance: 100000.0"

"geo near accepts just one argument when querying for a GeoJSON point. Extra field found: $maxDistance: 100000.0"
that is my error and i can't handle , my code is =>

router.get('/ninjas', (req, res, next) => {
Ninja.aggregate().near({
near: { type: "Point", coordinates: [parseFloat(req.query.lng), parseFloat(req.query.lat)] },
distanceField: "dist.calculated",
maxDistance: 100000,
spherical: true
}).then(function(ninjas) {
res.send(ninjas);
}).catch(next);

})

const GeoSchema = new Schema({
type: {
type: String,
default: 'Point'
},
coordinates: {
type: [Number],
index: '2dsphere'
}
});

const NinjaSchema = new Schema({
name: {
type: String,
required: [true, 'Name field is required']
},
rank: {
type: String
},
available: {
type: Boolean,
default: false
},
geometry: GeoSchema

});

.map no longer working

Hi Shaun,

I am really enjoying the rest api playlist, thank you very much. Very glad to see you are now on Udemy!

I am just at the last part now and I am getting errors around the .map section of the public index.html file:
render: function(){
var ninjas = this.state.ninjas;
ninjas = ninjas.map(function(ninja, index){
return(

{ninja.obj.name}
{ninja.obj.rank}
{Math.floor(ninja.dis / 1000)} km

);
});

My browser is saying .map is not a supported function.

Do you have any feedback?

Many thanks,
Charlie

React.createClass deprication issue in react@15

Frontend Authentication

Hi, Shaun,
Your RESTful API tutorial is great. But I have a question about the authentication.

It seems your tutorial does not verify the frontend. I mean, it seems anyone could make a request and retrieve data from the api.

I understand your tutorial is just a demo. So, do I need add some verification middleware and do some verification before the api sends data back to the frontend?

Thanks.

ValidationError: name: Name field is required

Great stuff but get stuck on chapter 9.

Trying to POST in postman to http://localhost:4000/api/ninjas with body:

{
"name": "Ninja"
}

but it seems that the POST does not send the body since my consoles logs:
(node:14148) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Unhandled promise rejection (rejection id: 5): ValidationError: name: Name field is required

any clue why validation fails spite having a name in the body=

Mongoose.connect() deprication issue

(node:10932) DeprecationWarning: open() is deprecated in mongoose >= 4.11.0, use openUri() instead, or set the useMongoClient option if using connect() or createConnection(). See http://mongoosejs.com/docs/connections.html#use-mongo-client

This is resolved by:

mongoose.connect('mongodb://localhost/ninjago', {useMongoClient: true});

Lesson 14 - .geoNear no longer supported use .aggregate in mongoose 5+

Request, can you please make a video of...

Hey Ninja, can you please make a video explaining anything starts with pre like: preload, prefetch, preconnect, precompile and also the lazyLoad concept?

Lesson 14, geoNear depreciated, .aggregate is used.

// get a list of ninjas from the db
router.get('/ninjas', function(req, res, next){

Ninja.aggregate(
    [
{$geoNear:{
    near:{
        type: 'Point', 
        coordinates: [parseFloat(req.query.lng), parseFloat(req.query.lat)]
    },
    maxDistance: 100000, 
    spherical: true,
    distanceField: 'String'
}
}]).then(function(ninjas){
    res.send(ninjas);
}).catch(next);

});

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/66611269/mongodb-geonear-not-working-for-some-coordinates-but-working-for-others

I followed along with rewriting the code from a stackoverflow post, along with prompts from Postman and the Code Editor. I see that there are also other answers to the geoNear not working, this is the solution that worked for me.
