I am receiving this error when trying to delete a document from the database:
Cannot GET /delete/532fa5e56f885c7fec5223b1fds
How can I successfully delete the document?
app.js
//Delete
app.del('/delete/:id', routes.delete_offer);
routes/index.js
//Delete
exports.delete_offer = function (req,res){
Offer.findOneAndRemove({'_id' : req.params.id}, function (err,offer){
res.redirect('/newsfeed');
});
};
views/dashboard.jade
- each offer in offers
div.offer.row
a(href="/offer/" + offer._id)
div.columns
div.sell_type
p=offer.type
div.small-8.columns.sell_info
p.sell_price="$" + offer.fixedPrice() + " "
p.sell_location="@ " + offer.location + " ›"
div.small-4.columns.sell_pic
p=offer.user_id
a.delete(href="/delete/" + offer._id)="Delete Offer"

There is currently no method called deleteById() in mongoose. However, there is the deleteOne() method with takes a parameter, filter , which indicates which document to delete. Simply pass the _id as the filter and the document will be deleted.
Mongoose | deleteOne() Function The deleteOne() function is used to delete the first document that matches the conditions from the collection. It behaves like the remove() function but deletes at most one document regardless of the single option.
Difference between findOneAndDelete() and findOneAndRemove() This function differs slightly from Model. findOneAndRemove() in that findOneAndRemove() becomes a MongoDB findAndModify() command, as opposed to a findOneAndDelete() command. For most mongoose use cases, this distinction is purely pedantic.
The HTTP verb your using is not correct
use app.delete("/delete/:id", routes.delete_offer);
I think that should work. Cause I don't think there is no del method in the HTTP verb for express.js framework it mostly GET, POST, PUT, DELETE plus a few others.
