How to store object in mongoose schema?

Question

In node.js I have three variables:

var name = 'Peter';
var surname = 'Bloom';
var addresses = [
    {street: 'W Division', city: 'Chicago'},
    {street: 'Beekman', city: 'New York'},
    {street: 'Florence', city: 'Los Angeles'},
];

And schema:

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

var personSchema = Schema({
  _id     : Number,
  name    : String,
  surname : String,
  addresses : ????
});

What type and how do I use it in schema? How is the best way for this?

Solution 1

You must create another mongoose schema:

var address = Schema({ street: String, city: String});

And the type of addresses will be Array< address >

Solution 2

You are actually storing an array.

var personSchema = Schema({
  _id     : Number,
  name    : String,
  surname : String,
  addresses : []
});

Solution 3

The Solution to save array is much simple,Please check below code

Adv.save({addresses: JSON.stringify(addresses)})

Your schema will look like it

var personSchema = Schema({
 _id     : Number,
 name    : String,
 surname : String,
 addresses : String,
});
