I have a node object that looks like this:
{
_id:58b336e105ac8eec70aef159,
name:my node,
ip:192.168.1.1,
__v:0,
configuration:{
links:[
{
linkName:athena_fw_listen_tcp_5555,
_id:58b336e105ac8eec70aef15d,
local:true
},
{
linkName:athena_fw_listen_udp_5554,
_id:58b336e105ac8eec70aef15c,
local:true
}
]
}
}
I am sending a delete request to my express server that looks like this:
DELETE http://localhost:9000/api/nodes/58b336e105ac8eec70aef159/links/58b336e105ac8eec70aef15d
I followed instructions in $pull mongodb documentation and I also tried this
But it does not seem to work, as I keep receiving: 500 (Internal Server Error)
This is how the code on my express side looks like:
exports.destroyLink = function(req, res) {
Node.findById(req.params.id, function(err, node) {
if (err) { return handleError(res, err); }
if (!node) { return res.status(404).send('Not Found'); }
console.log(Node, JSON.stringify(node))
console.log(Params, req.params)
node
.update({ '_id': req.params.id }, { $pull: { 'configuration': { 'links': { '_id': req.params.linkId } } } }, false, true)
.then(err => {
if (err) { return handleError(res, err); }
return res.status(204).send('No Content');
});
})
};The express router contains this:
router.delete('/:id/links/:linkId', controller.destroyLink);
So I am expecting id and linkId as params, I use id (_id: req.params.id) to target a specific node and linkId (_id: req.params.linkId) to target a specific link, but it doesn't work!
Need help resolving the issue, I don't know what I am missing here!
