meanjs route to server controller - angularjs

Question

i am trying to add a new method to my controller "matches.server.controller" names listTeams.
I have added a new route to the matches.server.route.js file like this
'use strict';
/**
* Module dependencies.
*/
var users = require('../../app/controllers/users.server.controller'),
matches = require('../../app/controllers/matches.server.controller');
module.exports = function(app) {
// Match Routes
app.route('/matches/listTeams') <-- new route added here !!
.get(matches.listteams);
app.route('/matches')
.get(matches.list)
.post(users.requiresLogin, matches.create);
app.route('/matches/:matchId')
.get(matches.read)
.put(users.requiresLogin, matches.hasAuthorization, matches.update)
.delete(users.requiresLogin, matches.hasAuthorization, matches.delete);
// Finish by binding the matches middleware
app.param('matchId', matches.matchByID);
};
this is the method in my server controller:
exports.listteams = function(req, res) {
res.json(1);
};
In matches.client.controller i call the method like this:
$scope.listteams = function(){
$scope.teams = Matches.get('matches/listTeams').success(function(data){
var d = data;
}).error(function(data){
var d = data;
});
however when i debug i always come in the list method of matches and not in listTeams method
What am i doing wrong?

Answer 1

Maybe it's because you are duplicating the path name
All parameters that goes after '/matches/' is handling by
app.route('/matches/:matchId')
.get(matches.read)
.put(users.requiresLogin, matches.hasAuthorization, matches.update)
.delete(users.requiresLogin, matches.hasAuthorization, matches.delete);
and perceiving like argument of'/:matchId'
In your case: find me team with id "listTeams"
Try to rename your path from matches to smth else like
module.exports = function(app) {
// Match Routes
app.route('/smthelse_not_matches/listTeams') <-- new route added here !!
.get(matches.listteams);
