i'm making a simple blog app using nodejs + express, i can add first post without a problem but when i try to add second post i got his error { MongoError: E11000 duplicate key error collection: restful_blog_app_v2.blogs index: username_1 dup key: { : null }
this is my schema
var mongoose = require("mongoose"); var passportLocalMongoose = require("passport-local-mongoose"); var BlogSchema = new mongoose.Schema({ title: String, image: String, body: String, created: { type: Date, default: Date.now }, author: { id: { type: mongoose.Schema.Types.ObjectId, ref: "User" }, username: String } }); BlogSchema.plugin(passportLocalMongoose); module.exports = mongoose.model("Blog", BlogSchema); this is the user schema
var mongoose = require("mongoose"); var passportLocalMongoose = require("passport-local-mongoose"); var UserSchema = new mongoose.Schema({ username: String, password: String, }); UserSchema.plugin(passportLocalMongoose); module.exports = mongoose.model("User", UserSchema); this is the create new post route
app.post("/blogs", isLoggedIn, function (req, res) { req.body.blog.body = req.sanitize(req.body.blog.body); var title = req.body.blog.title; var image = req.body.blog.image var body = req.body.blog.body; var created = req.body.blog.created; var author = { id: req.user._id, username: req.user.username } var newPost = { title: title, image: image, body: body, created: created, author: author } Blog.create(newPost, function (err, newBlog) { if (err) { console.log(err); res.render("new"); } else { console.log(newBlog); res.redirect("/blogs"); } }); }); I've tried to dropped the entire database using db.dropDatabase() from the mongo console but the problem still persist, not sure what to do now
