const express = require('express');
const bodyParser = require('body-parser');
const { ParseServer } = require('parse-server');
const ParseDashboard = require('parse-dashboard');
const app = express();

// Parse Server initialization
async function startParseServer() {
  const parseServer = new ParseServer({
    databaseURI: 'mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017/test', // MongoDB URI
    cloud: './cloud/main.js',
    fileKey: 'optionalFileKey',
    serverURL: 'http://192.168.1.5:1337/parse', // Server URL
    appId: 'myAppId',
    masterKey: 'myMasterKey', // Keep this key secret!
    encodeParseObjectInCloudFunction: false,
  });

  // Mount Parse Server at '/parse' URL prefix
  app.use('/parse', parseServer.app);

  // Configure Parse Dashboard (optional)
  const dashboard = new ParseDashboard({
    apps: [
      {
        serverURL: 'http://192.168.1.5:1337/parse',

      },
    ],
    // Allow insecure HTTP (for development only)
    allowInsecureHTTP: false,
  });

  // Mount Parse Dashboard at '/dashboard' URL prefix (optional)
  app.use('/dashboard', dashboard);

  // Body-parser middleware to parse incoming request bodies
  app.use(bodyParser.json()); // Parse JSON-encoded bodies


  // Define a GET endpoint to retrieve data
  app.get('/api/data', async (req, res) => {
    try {
      // Example query to retrieve data from a Parse class
      const query = new Parse.Query('MyClass');
      const results = await query.find({ useMasterKey: true });
      res.json(results);
    } catch (error) {
      console.error('Error fetching data:', error);
      res.status(500).json({ error: 'Error fetching data' });
    }
  });


  // Define a POST endpoint to add data with just a 'name' field
  app.post('/api/data', async (req, res) => {
    try {
      const { name } = req.body;

      if (!name) {
        return res.status(400).json({ error: 'Name is required' });
      }

      // Create a new object in a Parse class
      const MyClass = Parse.Object.extend('MyClass');
      const myObject = new MyClass();
      myObject.set('name', name);

      // Save the object to the database
      await myObject.save(null, { useMasterKey: true });

      res.json({ message: 'Data saved successfully', objectId: myObject.id });
    } catch (error) {
      console.error('Error saving data:', error);
      res.status(500).json({ error: 'Error saving data' });
    }
  });

  // Start the server
  const port = 1337;
  app.listen(port, function () {
    console.log(`parse-server-example running on port ${port}.`);
  });
}

// Call the async function to start Parse Server
startParseServer().catch((err) =>
  console.error('Error starting Parse Server:', err)
);

did you get it to work?

Have you tried using localhost instead of 192.168.1.5?

I have tried but can’t find any proper solution.
Yes, I used “localhost” instead of “192.168.1.5”, but the same issue is still there.

so if your parse-server is running properly, the problem might be your settings to connect to parse-server.

check your app settings and make sure you have it the same as your initialization and there’s no typo.

mainly check

appId: 'myAppId',
masterKey: 'myMasterKey',

are the same with whatever you’re using to connect to parse-server. which i think is react-admin-demo

5

app setting and initialization config both are same but still issue is same

6

when you open 192.168.1.5:1337/parse in your browser, do you see

{"error":"unauthorized"} ?

7

Yes when I open 192.168.1.5:1337/parse in browser I get {“error”:“unauthorized”}

@dhyan Hi,

You still don’t start the parse-server, but you are trying to connect the un-started server.

Add this line:

await parseServer.start()

before this :

// Mount Parse Server at '/parse' URL prefix
app.use('/parse', parseServer.app);

@dhyan Did you change according to this?

I wholeheartedly thank you for your help.
