mongoose join code example

Example 1: how to get data from multiple tables mongoose

const userSchema = new Schema({  
    nick_name:{type:String},  
    email: {  
        type: String,  
        trim: true,  
        required: '{PATH} is required!',
        index: true,
    },
    comments: [{ type: Schema.Types.ObjectId, ref:'Comment' }],
    posts: [{ type: Schema.Types.ObjectId, ref:'Post' }]
}, {timestamps: true});

mongoose.model('User', userSchema);

Example 2: mongoose reference another model

var mongoose = require('mongoose')
  , Schema = mongoose.Schema

var eventSchema = Schema({
    title     : String,
    location  : String,
    startDate : Date,
    endDate   : Date
});

var personSchema = Schema({
    firstname: String,
    lastname: String,
    email: String,
    gender: {type: String, enum: ["Male", "Female"]}
    dob: Date,
    city: String,
    interests: [interestsSchema],
    eventsAttended: [{ type: Schema.Types.ObjectId, ref: 'Event' }]
});

var Event  = mongoose.model('Event', eventSchema);
var Person = mongoose.model('Person', personSchema);
