Question with InjectorToken

Hey guys, I have a question regarding the creation of new (business-)objects and the usage of them in within a service.
I have created a new Type "MonthView". Therefore I have an existing colleciton in my mongoDB which is called "monthviews". Now I want to do a simple .find operation in my service. I have created the model like that:
`import { InjectorService, JsonProperty } from 'ts-express-decorators';
import { prop, Typegoose, InstanceType, ModelType } from 'typegoose';
import { MonthViewRepoToken } from '../token-constants';

export class MonthView extends Typegoose {

@prop()
@JsonProperty()
year: string;

@prop()
@JsonProperty()
month: string;

@prop()
@JsonProperty()
day: string;

@prop()
@JsonProperty()
amount: string;

}

export type MonthViewInstance = InstanceType;
export type MonthViewRepo = ModelType;
InjectorService.factory(MonthViewRepoToken, new MonthView().getModelForClass(MonthView));
`

I am a little confused about the last line of code because this crashes my whole application. The login doesn't work any more, the same on signup route. When I comment the line out, then it starts to work again. It seems that the Collection "user" gets overwritten in some strange way. Can you maybe help me to figure that out?

Thanks!

How to setup cors

Hi,

Thanks

build script --> no mounted routes

Hi there,
first of all I wanted to say thank you, your project is a really good starter for API-based projects. I have a question respectively wanted to report an possible error.
When I want to build my project for the production, I have to problem, that there are no mounted routes. When I'm runniung the start-script, everthing is fine and works, but not after the build and start:prod script. As I said there are no routes listed in the overview at the start o the server. My output is something like this:
`[2018-01-23T08:27:07.783] [INFO ] [TSED] - Build services

[2018-01-23T08:27:07.859] [INFO ] [TSED] - Server started...
`
Can you please advice me what to do?

Another point is that I had to change the start:prod script. It should be:
"start:prod": "node dist/app.js",
insted of
"start:prod": "node dist/main.js",

Thank you!

QST - Logged -In User

Hi @scopsy ,
is it possible to get the actual loggedIn user by the token within a service/controller? How can I do this?

Thanks and best regards!

Geeting User not found all the time on login /v1/auth/login.

I am getting all the time user not found:

{
    "message": "User not found.",
    "code": 2001,
    "status": 404
}

When sending JSON with:

{
"email":"[email protected]",
"password":"password"
}

In local strategy:

const user = await this.userRepository.findOne({ email }, this.USER_TOKEN_FIELDS + ' password');
if (!user) throw new ApiError(API_ERRORS.USER_NOT_FOUND);

Of course this is not correct since that user exists in database.
