Let's say I have some sort of game. I have a buyItem function like this: buyItem: function (req, res) { // query the users balance // deduct user balance // buy the item } If I spam that route until the user balance is deducted (the 2nd query) the user's balance is still positive. What I have tried: buyItem: function (req, res) { if(req.session.user.busy) return false; req.session.user.busy = true; // query the users balance // deduct user balance // buy the item } The problem is req.session.user.busy will be undefined for the first ~5 requests. So that doesn't work either. How do we handle

Any idea of how to integrate swagger , swagger-ui with a sails js project? Where can i found information about it, or about another way to comment an api generated with sails? Thanks! I was searching for a solution for this a little over a week ago, but I found the information scattered a bit. Here's how I integrated swagger and swagger-ui with my sails 0.11.x project. 1. Install sails-swagger npm install --save sails-swagger This provides a hook that will dynamically generate the swagger document. Unfortunately, it's only compatible with sails 0.12.x (which is an rc at the time of this post).

For example, I have a page /locations/map which I need to include Google Map library, and include a .js file (e.g. location.js) specifically for this page only. I want to inject these 2 files to after <!--SCRIPTS END--> this line Is it possible to do this? NOTE: I was using Sails.js v0.10 Sails uses ejs-locals in its view rendering, so you can accomplish what you want with blocks. In your layout.ejs file, underneath the <!--SCRIPTS END--> , add (for example): <%- blocks.localScripts %> Then in the view you're serving at /locations/map , call the block with your script tag, for example: <%

I'm converting an app of mine from Express to sails.js - is there a way I can do something like this in Sails? From my app.js file in Express: var globals = { name: 'projectName', author: 'authorName' }; app.get('/', function (req, res) { globals.page_title = 'Home'; res.render('index', globals); }); This let me access those variables on every view without having to hardcode them into the template. Not sure how/where to do it in Sails though. ataman You can create your own config file in config/ folder. For example config/myconf.js with your config variables: module.exports.myconf = { name:

I'm using a Bulk.unOrderedOperation as I'm also performing a single insert. And I want to do everything in one operation againast DB.

I am trying to improve my code in node.js / sail.js and I am fighting server response in promisses. When you look at the first .then function you can see that method returns false in case of forbidden access or notFound . Then, in the next .then functions I must check if the return type is === false to skip to section and avoid sending http headers twice. Can this be improved somehow, to skip all next .then methods in case of failure? I can throw an Exception to go in the last .catch but then there must be a case to switch between all possible states. (i.e. forbidden, serverError or even not
