I have a Mongoose schema with a property that holds an array of strings. Something like:
var schema = mongoose.schema({
myProp: [String]
})
mongoose.model('MyModel', schema);
Now, when I load a MyModel
document and check its .myProp
property, I get an empty array (thanks to Mongoose's casting, I think), even if the document in Mongo has no myProp
field.
How can I distinguish from my javascript between the document in mongo having no myProp
field, and having a myProp
field whose value is an empty array, given that doc.myProp
returns an empty array in both cases?
You could always use the lean() option when querying, which returns exactly what is in Mongo without creating an instance of the Mongoose model.
Model.find().lean().exec(function (err, docs) {
// docs should be identical to your mongo collection
});
