I'm facing an issue with the post method in my back-end code. Here's a simplified version of it:
router.post('/users', async function(request, response) {
try {
const userToRegister = request.body;
const user = await CreateUserService.execute(userToRegister);
return response.json(user);
} catch (err) {
console.log(err);
return response.status(401).json({ message: 'email already registered' });
}
});
When I try to handle the response on the front end to check for duplicate users, like this:
api.post('users', user.userFields)
.then(response => {
console.log(response)
})
.catch(err => {
console.log(err);
})
The response is always undefined.
If I add return response.json(err); in the backend code, it works fine.
What am I missing here?
