QUick QUESTION: Why are my ids showing as Null when I call them in mongo. They do have an id when i see them in the data base but when i call them through the app they show as null.
console response:
Mongoose: mpromise (mongoose's default promise library) is deprecated, plug in your own promise library instead: http://mongoosejs.com/docs/promises.html
{ _id: 58c76e48f339ce0d322f59a5,
name: 'bob',
email: 'bob@bob.com',
__v: 3,
posts: [ null, null, null ] }
My code:
post.create({ //create a post with following data
title:"working code",
content:"Ive cracked this part"
},function(post) { //give that post a callback function
mongoose.model("user").findOne({name:"bob"},function(err,foundUser){ //that finds one user model with name bob
if(err){console.log(err)}
else{ //if found push in the post that was created
foundUser.posts.push(post);
foundUser.save(function(err,saved){ //and save bobs new details
if(err)
{console.log(err)}
else
{console.log(saved)}
})
}
})
})
mongoose.model("user").findOne({name:"bob"}).populate("posts").exec(function(err,user){
if(err){console.log(err)}
else{console.log(user, user.posts.id)}});
-----------I attach a post to a user once i find a user with name bob.. Here is bobs user schema
var userSchema= new mongoose.Schema({
name:String,
email:String,
posts:[{
type:mongoose.Schema.Types.ObjectId, //posts attribute looks for an id in a mongoose schema
ref:"post" // THe schema reference is post
}]
});
THE IDS of these things DO EXIST.. but when I call them in the app they show as null.. WHY!!!???
