尝试使用 PUT 路由更新字幕 (node.js/express)

Question

I'm trying to update the caption column in my post table through using a form on an update.ejs page.

For some reason, it just redirects me back to my index.ejs page without updating my database. Can anyone spot anything wrong with my routes or ejs page?

Here are my update routes:

app.get('/update', (req, res) => {
  console.log(res.locals.alerts);
  res.render('update', { alerts: res.locals.alerts });
});

// update caption
app.put('/update', isLoggedIn, (req, res) => {
  console.log('--- PUT route ---');
  // console.log(req.body.id)
  // const id = req.body.id
  db.post.update({
    caption: req.body.caption
  }, {
    where: { id: req.body.id }
  }).then(() => {
    res.redirect('/')
  })
})

Here is the update.ejs :

<form action="/update?_method=put" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">
    <input type="text" value="<%= post.id %>" name="caption" placeholder="New Caption:" id="updatePostText" >
    <input type="submit" class="btn btn-primary" id="postSubmit" value="Update">
</form>

Your submitting an html form using the http method POST , in your express-app you are using .put for your route, so you should change the latter to:

app.post('/update', isLoggedIn, (req, res) => { ... }
