List media by users

To retrieve a list of media uploaded by a specific user, we will set up an API with a route that accepts a GET request at '/api/media/by/:userId'.

mern-mediastream/server/routes/media.routes.js:

router.route('/api/media/by/:userId')         .get(mediaCtrl.listByUser) 

The listByUser controller method will query the Media collection to find media documents that have postedBy values matching the userId.

mern-mediastream/server/controllers/media.controller.js:

const listByUser = (req, res) => {  Media.find({postedBy: req.profile._id})  .populate('postedBy', '_id name')  .sort('-created')  .exec((err, posts) => {    if (err) {      return res.status(400).json({        error: errorHandler.getErrorMessage(err)      })    }    res.json(posts)  })}
