I can't find what I'm doing wrong... I'm trying to define sub-docs in mongoose models, but when I split Schema definitions into another file, childrens model aren't respected.
First, defining a Comment schema:
var CommentSchema = new Schema({
"text": { type: String },
"created_on": { type: Date, default: Date.now }
});
mongoose.model('Comment', CommentSchema);
Next, creating another schema by loading from mongoose.model() (like we would loading it from another file
var CommentSchema2 = mongoose.model('Comment').Schema;
Now defining parent schema:
var PostSchema = new Schema({
"title": { type: String },
"content": { type: String },
"comments": [ CommentSchema ],
"comments2": [ CommentSchema2 ]
});
var Post = mongoose.model('Post', PostSchema);
And some tests
var post = new Post({
title: "Hey !",
content: "nothing else matter"
});
console.log(post.comments); // []
console.log(post.comments2); // [ ] // <-- space difference
post.comments.unshift({ text: 'JOHN' });
post.comments2.unshift({ text: 'MICHAEL' });
console.log(post.comments); // [{ text: 'JOHN', _id: 507cc0511ef63d7f0c000003, created_on: Tue Oct 16 2012 04:07:13 GMT+0200 (CEST) }]
console.log(post.comments2); // [ [object Object] ]
post.save(function(err, post){
post.comments.unshift({ text: 'DOE' });
post.comments2.unshift({ text: 'JONES' });
console.log(post.comments[0]); // { text: 'DOE', _id: 507cbecd71637fb30a000003, created_on: Tue Oct 16 2012 04:07:13 GMT+0200 (CEST) } // :-)
console.log(post.comments2[0]); // { text: 'JONES' } // :'-(
post.save(function (err, p) {
if (err) return handleError(err)
console.log(p);
/*
{ __v: 1,
title: 'Hey !',
content: 'nothing else matter',
_id: 507cc151326266ea0d000002,
comments2: [ { text: 'JONES' }, { text: 'MICHAEL' } ],
comments:
[ { text: 'DOE',
_id: 507cc151326266ea0d000004,
created_on: Tue Oct 16 2012 04:07:13 GMT+0200 (CEST) },
{ text: 'JOHN',
_id: 507cc151326266ea0d000003,
created_on: Tue Oct 16 2012 04:07:13 GMT+0200 (CEST) } ] }
*/
p.remove();
});
});
As you can see, with CommentSchema, ids and default properties are correctly set. But with CommentSchema2, the loaded one, it's going wrong.
I've tried to use a 'population' version but it's not what I'm looking for. I don't want to have to use another collection.
Does anyone of you know what's wrong ? Thanks !

Full gist: https://gist.github.com/de43219d01f0266d1adf
The Schema object of a Model is accessible as Model.schema
, not Model.Schema
.
So change line 20 of your gist to:
var CommentSchema2 = mongoose.model('Comment').schema;
