Strapi / Nuxt - Can't find custom route - authentication

Question

I've used this to setup auth in strapi and nuxt:
Auth with Strapi and Nuxt
I'm currently trying to retrieve the items specific to a authenticated user (already checked out this strapi - restrict user to fetch only data related to him). To do this I created a custom route in Strapi (/api/routine/config/routes.json):
{
"method": "GET",
"path": "/routines/me",
"handler": "Routine.me",
"config": {
"policies": []
}
}
and a custom controller (/api/controllers/Routine.js):
module.exports = {
me: async (ctx) => {
const user = ctx.state.user;
if (!user) {
return ctx.badRequest(null, [{ messages: [{ id: 'No authorization header was found' }] }]);
}
const data = await strapi.services.routine.find({user:user.id});
if(!data){
return ctx.notFound();
}
ctx.send(data);
},
};
I already gave permission through Strapi admin for authenticated users to access 'me'. When I hit the endpoint from Nuxt:
const routines = await axios.get(http://localhost:1337/routines/me)
I get this error:
GET http://localhost:1337/routines/me 404 (Not Found)
Why is the custom route not found? Am I using the wrong endpoint?

Answer 1

Maybe you have already solved it, but it seems like you forget to send the authentication header with the request.
const routines = await axios.get(
'http://localhost:1337/routines/me', {
headers: {
Authorization:
this.$auth.getToken('local'),
},
}

Answer 2

It was a fault in my Strapi routes config. Answer was provided through the amazingly helpful Strapi forums:
403 forbidden when calling custom controller from Nuxt
Here is the problem:
{
"method": "GET",
"path": "/routines/:id",
"handler": "routine.findOne",
"config": {
"policies": []
}
},
{
"method": "GET",
"path": "/routines/me",
"handler": "routine.me",
"config": {
"policies": []
}
So basically you are hitting the first route right now and it assumes that
me is actually an :id. Koa is making the verifications with regex so in this case it takes the first matched route. Move the route with /me above that one with /:id
