const express = require('express');

const User = require('./models/User'); // your User model

const app = express();
app.use(express.json());

    try {
        const user = await User.findOne({ email });

        if (!user) {
            return res.status(400).send({ message: 'User with this email does not exist' });
        }

        const token = crypto.randomBytes(32).toString('hex');
        user.resetToken = token;
        user.resetTokenExpire = Date.now() + 3600000; // token expires after one hour

        await user.save();

        const resetUrl = `http://localhost:3000/reset-password/${token}`; // your reset password page

        // configure your email here
        let transporter = nodemailer.createTransport({

        let mailOptions = {

            subject: 'Password Reset',
            text: `You are receiving this email because you (or someone else) have requested the reset of the password for your account. Please click on the following link, or paste it into your browser to complete the process within one hour of receiving it: ${resetUrl}`,
        };

        transporter.sendMail(mailOptions);

        res.status(200).send({ message: 'Reset password link sent to email' });

    } catch (err) {
        console.error(err);
        res.status(500).send({ message: 'Internal server error' });
    }

app.post('/reset-password/:token', async (req, res) => {

        }

        const hashedPassword = await bcrypt.hash(password, 10);

        user.resetToken = undefined;
        user.resetTokenExpire = undefined;

        await user.save();

const PORT = process.env.PORT || 3000;

app.listen(PORT, () => {
    console.log(`Server running on port ${PORT}`);
});
