how to query sails-disk in sailsjs - database

Question

I have generated the api in sailsjs using
sails generate api testAPI
and I have been able to create data using the command
http://localhost:1337/testAPI/create?username=f1&password=123
and i can get the result
but when I want to customize the route
for get - http://localhost:1337/testAPI/1
i am using the code
module.exports = {
findOne:function(req,res){
res.ok('overridden');
}
};
in testAPIController.js for the overriding
and when I go the route http://localhost:1337/testAPI/1 I am able to see overriden displayed there.
but how do I query the data and show a customized view there?
to customize and query the data I am using this code and it doesnt work
says that testAPI not defined
module.exports = {
findOne:function(req,res){
var results = testAPI.find()
res.ok(results);
}
};
so, what am I doing wrong here?

Answer 1

The model you created should be used with the first capital letter (TestAPI.find());
Also, you should consider the assync factor when fetching data. See code bellow
module.exports = {
findOne:function(req,res){
TestAPI.find().then(function(results) {
return res.ok(results);
});
}
};
