Hi.
I am getting the following error while using your check-auth middleware in my app:
(node:27860) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Unhandled promise rejection (rejection id: 1): Error: Can't set headers after they are sent.

I believe it has something to do with this:
req.userData = jwt.verify(token, process.env.ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET);
in check-auth.js

How may I tweak it to work ?

Hello Max and all other viewers, love your videos, but in this tutorial I got stuck after implementing the router.post('/', ....), whenever I try to POST the order in postman software it comes out as

{
    "error": {
        "message": "document must have an _id before saving",
        "name": "MongooseError"
    }
}

and nothing gets posted in localhost:3000/orders

I mean why does the mongoose expect the _id to be there first, isn't the productId should suffice for that? I"m sorry if I'm vague , provide any explanation or suggestion that will help me guide

i got empty json when access get to :http://localhost:3000/orders
{
"count": 0,
"orders": []
}

order.js :

const mongoose = require('mongoose');
const orderSchema = mongoose.Schema({
 _id: mongoose.Schema.Types.ObjectId,
 product: {type:mongoose.Schema.Types.ObjectId, ref:'Product', required: true},
 quantity: {type:Number, default:1}
});

module.exports = mongoose.model('Order',orderSchema)

getroutes :

router.get('/', (req,res,next)=>{
 Order.find()
  .select("product quantity _id")
  .populate('product')
  .exec()
  .then(docs => {
   res.status(200).json({
    count: docs.length,
    orders: docs.map(doc => {
     return {
      _id :doc._id,
      product: doc.product,
      quantity: doc.quantity,
      request: {
       type: 'GET',
       url: `http://localhost:3000/orders/${doc._id}`
      }
     };
    })
   });
  })
 .catch(err => {
  res.status(500).json({
   error: err
  });
 });
});

Hey Max, how are you?
Very nice work! Thank you for sharing!

Well, i have a doubt.
It's about the commented code in the "GET" route of the product controller.

node-restful-api-tutorial / api / controllers / products.js (lines: 24 ~ 30)
File in this repo

As my English is somewhat limited, I did not understand everything you explained about while writing this part of the code.
What is the best option? Uncomment or delete commented lines?

I followed your steps for creating a new user. It returned a proper email and id. But now when I try to POST request for /login using postman, it does not work. It shows the following error:

`POST /user/signup 201 819.342 ms - 26
C:\Users\Admin\Desktop\one-way-travel\node_modules\jsonwebtoken\sign.js:97
throw err;
^

Error: secretOrPrivateKey must have a value

at bcrypt.compare (C:\Users\Admin\Desktop\one-way-travel\api\controllers\user.js:63:29)
`

Kindly help to resolve it soon.
