I'm having a problem. When I enter data in an HTML and send it to the MongoDB database, the empty elements are sent to me, that is, the attributes that are saved do not contain the data I enter in the html. Here I show you the example:
addItem = function(req, res) {
console.log('POST');
console.log(req.body.nid);
console.log(req.body.valor);
var myData = new Item({
nid: req.body.nid,
valor: req.body.valor
});
myData.save().then(item => {
res.send("item saved to database");
})
res.send(myData);}
Here you can see my html:
<body>
<h1>Into to Node and MongoDB</h1>
<form method="post" action="/item">
<label>Inserte los datos</label><br>
<input type="text" name="nid" id="nid" placeholder="Enter NID" required>
<input type="text" name="valor" id="valor" placeholder="Enter VALOR" required>
<input type="submit" value="Add Name">
</form>
</body>
The outline of the object I keep in the database is as follows:
var itemSchema = new Schema({
nid: { type: String },
valor: { type: String }
});
On the other hand I have the database created in local and as you can see these are the objects that are saved to me when executing a form sending:
> db.items.find()
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5acca9569b59cf26e7b1e531"), "__v" : 0 }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5acca95a9b59cf26e7b1e532"), "__v" : 0 }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5acca9c5fd2b102aac692f39"), "__v" : 0 }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5accab52e7cc932cb51a67ad"), "__v" : 0 }

I hope that someone can help me, and thanks in advance, any modification or advice on your part will be of great help for me to continue learning and practicing.
