module.exports.validateUser = function (req, res) {
User.find({ 'username': req.body.username, 'password': req.body.password }, function (err, result) {
if (result.length) {
var gridfs = req.app.get('gridfs');
var readstream = gridfs.createReadStream({
_id: result[0]._doc.picture
});
req.on('error', function (err) {
res.send(500, err);
});
readstream.on('error', function (err) {
res.send(500, err);
});
// Just sends the file
//readstream.pipe(res);
res.send('This is incedible');
} else {
res.send(false);
}
});
};
Just after the user is validated I am getting the file associated with it. Further I want to send some data along with the fine in response. I've used multer and gridfs-stream. Is this achievable. If not, then does something looks fishy in this approach?
