Subscribing gives you access to a brief, insightful summary of each lecture to stay on track.
00:00:02 Today, we'll be working on the profile page.
00:00:05 It has quite a lot of details.
00:00:08 And finally, we'll be able to learn a bit more about the users that use our application.
00:00:12 So back in our editor, let's head over to our actions, this time to our user.action.ts file.
00:00:20 where I will collapse all of the current functions we have right now.
00:00:24 And instead of getting all the users, now we just want to fetch the details of a single user.
00:00:29 Now keep in mind that this page has to be public as we want to be able to see everyone's profiles.
00:00:34 So we'll have to pass the user ID to our server action instead of getting the currently logged in user from our action malware.
00:00:41 So first things first, let's head over into the action.d.ts file where we can define the props I'll call it interface get user params.
00:00:53 And we simply want to accept a user ID of a type string.
00:00:58 We're going to also head over into validations.ts and at the bottom of that file, I'll export const a new get user schema,
00:01:10 which will be equal to z.object.
00:01:13 where we'll have a user ID of a type string min1 character.
00:01:18 And then we can create that server action that allow us to fetch the user.
00:01:23 So let's follow the structure we have right here.
00:01:26 Export async function getUser.
00:01:29 It'll accept params of a type getUser params and it'll return a promise.
00:01:38 That'll contain the action response and specifically in this action response, we will return an object where user will be equal to the user interface.
00:01:49 We'll also return the number of total questions for that user, which will be equal to a number.
00:01:56 And we'll also return a number of total answers provided by that user, which will be a number.
00:02:02 Make sure to import this user from the database.
00:02:04 So right here at the top, and then we can close this right here and open up a function block.
00:02:10 Now within it, we can first call our action by saying const validation result is equal to await action to which we need to pass over the params.
00:02:24 as well as the schema equal to getUserSchema coming from validations.
00:02:30 You know the drill, if we have the validation result and if it has an error, just return it.
00:02:35 Else, we can destructure the user ID coming from programs.
00:02:41 Then let's open up a try and catch block.
00:02:44 In the catch, we can simply return the handle error as error response.
00:02:49 And in the try, let's go ahead and fetch the user by saying const user is equal to await user.findById to which we're going to pass the user ID.
00:03:03 If there is no user, we can simply throw a new error, user not found.
00:03:09 But if we do have a user, we can fetch the number of total questions by saying const totalQuestions is equal to await questionModel.countDocuments where
00:03:21 the author property matches the user ID of the user we're trying to fetch the details for.
00:03:28 And we can do the same thing for the total answers by using the answers model.
00:03:35 So I'll say answer.countDocuments where the author is the user ID we're trying to get the details for.
00:03:42 Finally, we can return an object where success is true and pass over the data of JSON parse, JSON stringify user, as well as the total questions and total answers.
00:03:55 You see that we are following the same structure we have followed up to this point.
00:03:59 So when I'm writing something, Copilot automatically suggests improvements.
00:04:03 and I know it might seem like I'm going through this fast, but I'm just using my natural pace.
00:04:10 It's just that as this project evolves, we already put structures in place that allow us to just do it without thinking because we know how the structure
00:04:18 looks like.
00:04:19 And thankfully, Copilot follows that and just gives me what I want.
00:04:22 Right here, we have one warning saying that user refers to a value, but it's being used as a type, so you just want to add a type of user right here.
00:04:31 And with that, we have a server action that allow us to fetch the user details.
00:04:36 So let's go ahead and commit it by saying something like implement getUserServerAction, commit it and sync it.
00:04:46 And in the next lesson, we can start implementing the profile page.
