Thanks for reading my question!
I'm making a chat-app where people can chat with each other who are born at the same date.
So the question is, How do I change the route with an additional birthdate which is changing with every different user with different birthdates?
I already can signup/login and save the birthdate for every user. So I need to take the birthdate from the mongoDB to put it in the url so nobody gets directed to the wrong chat.
router.get("/", chatController.getAll);
app.use('/api/v1/chat', passport.authenticate('jwt', { session: false }), apiChatRouter);
const getAll = (req,res)=>{
Message.find({},(err,docs)=>{
if(!err){
res.json({
"status":"succes",
"data":{
"chat":docs
}
});
}
});
}
fetch('http://localhost:3000/api/v1/chat/', {
//nodige headers meegeven met localstorage
'headers':{
'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + localStorage.getItem('token')
}
}).then(result => {
return result.json();
}).then(json =>{
console.log(json);
}).catch(err =>{
console.log("Unauthorized")
});

You can use express path param please check the below example
To redirect user to other path you can user
res.redirect('/1990-03-29');
to get param from url
app.get('/api/v1/chat/:bd', function (req, res) {
// http://localhost:xx/api/v1/chat/1990-03-29
req.params // eqal { "bd": "1990-03-29" }
})
