Mongoose date field - Set default to date.now + N days

You can add 7 days converted to milliseconds to current date like this

default: new Date(+new Date() + 7*24*60*60*1000)

or even like this

default: +new Date() + 7*24*60*60*1000

UPDATE

Please check the @laggingreflex comment below. You need to set function as default value:

default: () => new Date(+new Date() + 7*24*60*60*1000)

default: () => Date.now() + 7*24*60*60*1000

This will be enough
