BUG: Recipies dont get populated when starting fresh

[sadath2001]

Is there an existing issue raised for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Describe your issue

Hi,
I found a bug recently.
When i create a new account, and then i login, initially there would be no recipies.
When i try adding the recipie, it shows internal error.

Steps to reproduce

1. Create a new account
2. Add a new recipie
3. You could see an error

What was the expected result?

The recipie shouldve been added succesfully

Proposed solution

i could see that there is a slight issue in the code:
const lastDocument = await Recipe.findOne().sort({ _id: -1 });
const unique = lastDocument._id.toString()

 the above code would fetch the last documentid to generate a unique id.

Since there is no last document, it throws an error.

I have to try and check by testing to fix this issue.

Kindly assign this to me

@sadath2001 does this issue still exists?
Not able to repro it on prod, it's working fine

[sadath2001]

@sadath2001 , yes, it does, only when we start fresh, i.e there are no existing recipes at all in the application. In which case, i will point to undefined.

@sadath2001 I tried to repro this issue using a new account but it works fine.
Can you present some video to confirm this is a valid bug.

Its no longer an issue, since i applied the fix to this in the recipie validation PR. so i believe this can be closed.

Okay then closing this issue.
