how to update doc instances in mongoose code example
Example 1: mongoose find and update prop
var query = {'username': req.user.username};
req.newData.username = req.user.username;
MyModel.findOneAndUpdate(query, req.newData, {upsert: true}, function(err, doc) {
if (err) return res.send(500, {error: err});
return res.send('Succesfully saved.');
});
Example 2: mongoose save or update
// This will create another document if it doesn't exist
findByIdAndUpdate(_id, { something: 'updated' }, { upsert: true });
