Get user ID from token in querymen

[chemitaxis]

Hi Diego, I love your boilerplate (Yeoman Generator Rest), but I have a "question" that I can't solve...

I need to customize a Schema, something like this:

const customSchema = new QuerymenSchema({
  sort: '-LastModified', // this change the default order
  IdUser: '5819c860072c1d156cfec382' // this is the field I need to change
}, {
  page: false,
  limit: false
})

The purpose of that, if get the resource of an endpoint but JUST of the owner user... How can I solve this with querymen?

This is the output of Moongose:
myCollection.find({ IdUser: '5819c860072c1d156cfec382' }, { sort: { LastModified: -1 }, fields: {} })

Everything is ok, but I need to change the IdUser for the current user logged. I think this is a typical approach ;)

Thanks for your work, is excellent!

On the rest project you can use the token({ required: true }) middleware in the express middleware chain.

On the controller, just grab req.user.id and pass it to the mongoose query:

const controller = ({ user, querymen: { query } }, res) =>
  myCollection.find({ IdUser: user.id, ...query })

Didn't test the above code, but you should be able to do something like that.

Tell me if it helps you.

Thanks, this is correct way it works ;)

export const index = ({ user, querymen: { query, select, cursor } }, res, next) => 
  myCollection.find({ IdUser: user.id, ...query }, select, cursor)
    .then((geniallys) => geniallys.map((genially) => genially.view()))
    .then(success(res))
    .catch(next)

On this way, I can use if I want the cursor, and the select!

You can close the question!
