Mongoose is an Object Data Modeling (ODM) library for MongoDB and Node. js. It manages relationships between data, provides schema validation, and is used to translate between objects in code and the representation of those objects in MongoDB.
// Create an instance of model SomeModel
var awesome_instance = new SomeModel({ name: 'awesome' });
// Save the new model instance, passing a callback
awesome_instance.save(function (err) {
if (err) return handleError(err);
// saved!
});
// NOTE: methods must be added to the schema before compiling it with mongoose.model()
kittySchema.methods.speak = function speak() {
const greeting = this.name
? "Meow name is " + this.name
: "I don't have a name";
console.log(greeting);
};
const Kitten = mongoose.model('Kitten', kittySchema);
