mongoose-types's Introduction

mongoose-3x-types - Useful types and type plugins for Mongoose

This library is a fork of mongoose-types, updated to work both with mongoose 2.x and 3.x.

It is meant to be used as an interim solution while waiting for the upstream version to be updated.

Types include:

  • Email
  • Url

Plugins include:

  • useTimestamps Adds createdAt and updatedAt date attributes that get auto-assigned to the most recent create/update timestamp.

Installation

npm install mongoose-3x-types

Setup

To include all of the defined types:

var mongoose = require("mongoose");
var db = mongoose.createConnection("mongodb://localhost/sampledb");
var mongooseTypes = require("mongoose-3x-types");
mongooseTypes.loadTypes(mongoose);

You can also specify that you only want to load and use a limited subset of the types provided:

var mongoose = require("mongoose");
var db = mongoose.createConnection("mongodb://localhost/sampledb");
var mongooseTypes = require("mongoose-3x-types");
// Only load the email type
mongooseTypes.loadTypes(mongoose, "email");

Using the types

Once you are setup, you can begin to use the new types.

Mongoose 2.x and 3.x

When on mongoose 3.x use mongoose.Schema.Types, otherwise if you're on mongoose 2.x use mongoose.SchemaTypes.

Keep this in mind when reading the following examples.

Email

var Email = mongoose.Schema.Types.Email;
var UserSchema = new Schema({
  email: {
      work: Email
    , home: Email
  }
});

Url

var Url = mongoose.Schema.Types.Url;
var VisitSchema = new Schema({
    url: Url
  , referer: Url
});

Using the plugins

The useTimestamps plugin

var mongoose = require("mongoose");
var db = mongoose.createConnection("mongodb://localhost/sampledb");
var mongooseTypes = require("mongoose-3x-types")
  , useTimestamps = mongooseTypes.useTimestamps;
var UserSchema = new Schema({
    username: String
});
UserSchema.plugin(useTimestamps);
mongoose.model('User', UserSchema);
var User = db.model('User', UserSchema);

var user = new User({username: 'Prince'});
user.save(function (err) {
  console.log(user.createdAt); // Should be approximately now
  console.log(user.createdAt === user.updatedAt); // true

  // Wait 1 second and then update the user
  setTimeout( function () {
    user.username = 'Symbol';
    user.save( function (err) {
      console.log(user.updatedAt); // Should be approximately createdAt + 1 second
      console.log(user.createdAt < user.updatedAt); // true
    });
  }, 1000);
});
