I need to capture the return of the shorten
method from the TinyUrl
library. I'm trying to store this return in the shortUrl
variable and then save it in the database as follows:
import TinyUrl from 'tinyurl';
let shortUrl = '';
TinyUrl.shorten(req.body.url, function (response, error) {
if (error) console.log(error);
console.log(response);
shortUrl = response;
});
// Tudo certo para CRIAR o Site
const { id, hits, url, short_url } = await Site.create({
hits: 0,
url: req.body.url,
short_url: shortUrl,
});
return res.json({
id,
hits,
url,
short_url,
});
When viewing console.log(response);
the desired return is displayed correctly, but the shortUrl
variable is not set. How can I do it ?
I implemented it as follows:
const shortUrl = await TinyUrl.shorten(req.body.url);
const { id, hits, url, short_url } = await Site.create({
hits: 0,
url: req.body.url,
short_url: shortUrl,
});
