I have tried to use Mongoose to send the list of all users as follows:
server.get('/usersList', function(req, res) {
var users = {};
User.find({}, function (err, user) {
users[user._id] = user;
});
res.send(users);
});
Of course, res.send(users);
is going to send {}
, which is not what I want. Is there a find
alternative with slightly different semantics, where I could do the following?
server.get('/usersList', function(req, res) {
User.find({}, function (err, users) {
res.send(users);
});
});
Essentially, I want the callback to be executed only when all the users have been fetched from the database.
