Fuzzy Searching with Mongodb?

by

I believe that to do “fuzzy” search you will need to use regex. This should accomplish what you’re looking for (escapeRegex function source here): function escapeRegex(text) { return text.replace(/[-[\]{}()*+?.,\\^$|#\s]/g, “\\$&”); }; router.get(“https://stackoverflow.com/”, function(req, res) { if (req.query.search) { const regex = new RegExp(escapeRegex(req.query.search), ‘gi’); Jobs.find({ “name”: regex }, function(err, foundjobs) { if(err) { console.log(err); } … Read more

ISODate is not defined

The mongodb blog has an excellent post detailing how to implement user authentication. http://blog.mongodb.org/post/32866457221/password-authentication-with-mongoose-part-1 The following is copied directly from the link above: User Model var mongoose = require(‘mongoose’), Schema = mongoose.Schema, bcrypt = require(‘bcrypt’), SALT_WORK_FACTOR = 10; var UserSchema = new Schema({ username: { type: String, required: true, index: { unique: true } }, … Read more

MissingSchemaError: Schema hasn’t been registered for model “User”

by

I got the same problem when I am trying the MEAN tutorial.

getting schema attributes from Mongoose Model

by

Yes, it is possible. Each schema has a paths property, that looks somewhat like this (this is an example of my code): paths: { number: [Object], ‘name.first’: [Object], ‘name.last’: [Object], ssn: [Object], birthday: [Object], ‘job.company’: [Object], ‘job.position’: [Object], ‘address.city’: [Object], ‘address.state’: [Object], ‘address.country’: [Object], ‘address.street’: [Object], ‘address.number’: [Object], ‘address.zip’: [Object], email: [Object], phones: [Object], tags: … Read more

How do I get the objectID after I save an object in Mongoose?

This just worked for me: var mongoose = require(‘mongoose’), Schema = mongoose.Schema; mongoose.connect(‘mongodb://localhost/lol’, function(err) { if (err) { console.log(err) } }); var ChatSchema = new Schema({ name: String }); mongoose.model(‘Chat’, ChatSchema); var Chat = mongoose.model(‘Chat’); var n = new Chat(); n.name = “chat room”; n.save(function(err,room) { console.log(room.id); }); $ node test.js 4e3444818cde747f02000001 $ I’m on … Read more
