I am learing Node.JS by webdevsimplified and i am developing a book library website and i am facing an issue. I have imported a filepond library and some plugins. They are working perfectly fine when i try to add a new book but when i try to edit an existing book the filepond library does not appear to be working then if i try to edit image then it throws an error an automatically filepond start to work i have debugged everything and i can not understand why is this happening. this is what comes up and everything works without error except the cover updation. if i try to update cover it throws an error and then shows the page that is originally intended to show
Some Code related to edit routes
books.js
router.get('/:id/edit', async (req,res)=>{
try {
const book = await Book.findById(req.params.id)
renderEditPage(res, book)
} catch {
res.redirect('/')
}
})
// Update book route
router.put('/:id', async (req,res)=>{
let book
try {
book = await Book.findById(req.params.id)
book.title = req.body.title
book.author = req.body.author
book.publishDate = new Date(req.body.publishDate)
book.pageCount = req.body.pageCount
book.description = req.body.description
if(req.body.cover != null && req.body.cover !== ''){
saveCover(book, req.body.cover)
}
await book.save()
res.redirect(`/books/${book.id}`)
} catch{
if(book != null){
renderEditPage(res,book, true)
} else {
redirect('/')
}
}
})
router.delete('/:id', async (req, res) => {
let book
try {
book = await Book.findById(req.params.id)
await book.remove()
res.redirect('/books')
} catch {
if (book != null) {
res.render('books/show', {
book: book,
errorMessage: 'Could not remove book'
})
} else {
res.redirect('/')
}
}
})
async function renderNewPage(res,book , hasError = false){
renderFormPage(res,book,'new',hasError)
}
async function renderEditPage(res,book , hasError = false){
renderFormPage(res,book,'edit',hasError)
}
async function renderFormPage(res,book , form, hasError = false){
try{
const authors = await Author.find({})
const params = {
authors: authors,
book: book,
}
if(hasError){
if(form === 'edit'){
params.errorMessage = 'Error Updating Book'
}
else {
params.errorMessage = 'Error Creating Book'
}
}
res.render(`books/${form}`, params)
}catch{
res.redirect('/books')
}
}
function saveCover(book, coverEncoded){
if (coverEncoded == null) return
const cover = JSON.parse(coverEncoded)
if (cover != null && imageMimeTypes.includes(cover.type)){
book.coverImage = new Buffer.from(cover.data, 'base64')
book.coverImageType = cover.type
}
}
module.exports = router
edit.ejs
<h2>Edit Book</h2>
<form action="/books/<%= book.id %>?_method=PUT" method="POST">
<%- include('_form_fields') %>
<a href="/books">Cancel</a>
<button type = "submit">Update</button>
</form>
also the URL for the wrong edit page is http://localhost:3000/books/64ca52c7a9b8a5350ccb4e00/edit
while URL after an error is thrown becomes http://localhost:3000/books/64ca52c7a9b8a5350ccb4e00?_method=PUT
