Please change code with try
and catch
.
Also, check how to use await
.
try {
const newUser = new User({
'email': req.body.email,
'name': req.body.name
});
console.log('before save');
let saveUser = await newUser.save(); //when fail its goes to catch
console.log(saveUser); //when success it print.
console.log('after save');
} catch (err) {
console.log('err' + err);
res.status(500).send(err);
}

In my Nodejs project I would just like to
await
a mongoose.save function before continuing with my code. The below example does not work, but can anyone help me with something that will work please.app.post('/api/CreateUser', async (req, res) => { const newUser = new User({ 'email': req.body.email, 'name': req.body.name }); console.log('before save'); await newUser.save((err, userDoc) => { if (err) return res.status(400).send(err); console.log('saved item'); }); console.log('after save'); });
The current console.log order is:
- before save
- after save
- saved item
But I would like it to be:
- before save
- saved item
- after save
