After updating to Mongoose version 5.0.15, I encountered an error that says
TypeError: Cannot read property 'catch' of undefined4.13.11.
It seems like the issue lies in the fact that the Save() function does not return a Promise. Despite using bluebird, which was functioning properly before, the current implementation is failing with the updated version.
I'm unsure of what I might be doing wrong since the .catch() should be working as intended.
app.ts
mongoose.Promise = bluebird;
mongoose.connect(mongoUrl).then(
() => { /** ready to use. The `mongoose.connect()` promise resolves to undefined. */ },
).catch(err => {
console.log("MongoDB connection error. Please make sure MongoDB is running. " + err);
// process.exit();
});
Home.ts
let user: userInterface = {
email: "<a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection" class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="ec8a8383ac8e8d9ec28f8381">[email protected]</a>",
firstName: "Brian",
lastName: "Love",
password: "as",
role: 1,
accountType: 1
};
var newUser = new User(user); // create a new instance of the User model
// save the newUser and check for errors
var a= newUser.save(function(err) {
if (err){
return err;
}
res.json({ message: 'User created!' });
}).catch(function (error) {
console.log(error);
});
