Mongoose find and filter plugin
=========
[](https://nodei.co/npm/mongoose-find-and-filter/)
*mongoose-find-and-filter* plugin is a [mongoose](http://www.mongoose.com) plugin which improves the `find` method with filtering and sorting features. You can also limit or skip results and populate refs.
## Installation
```
npm install mongoose-find-and-filter --save
```
You can use this plugin with specific schema or globally for all schemas.
To use it with specific schema:
```javascript
const mongooseFindAndFilter = require('mongoose-find-and-filter');
const userSchema = new Schema({...});
// attach mongoose-find-and-filter plugin to userSchema
userSchema.plugin(mongooseFindAndFilter);
```
If you want to use the plugin globally for all schemas:
```javascript
const mongoose = require('mongoose');
const mongooseFindAndFilter = require('mongoose-find-and-filter');
mongoose.plugin(mongooseFindAndFilter);
```
After attaching `mongoose-find-and-filter` plugin you will have `Model.findAndFilter(...)` method on your model.
## Usage
*Mongoose find and filter* plugin provides support for both promise style as well as callback style queries. Setup for your backend API server (eg. ExpressJS) might look something like this:
### Promise example
```javascript
const User = require('./user.model.js'); // model
/* this is example of User model instance
{
"_id": "58e0dc934ee10d2f1c2cd0f4",
"username": "johndoe",
"contact": "58e68c594ee10d1870493af1", // ref to Contact model
"updatedAt": "2017-04-05T05:31:00.522Z",
"createdAt": "2017-02-16T08:32:17.959Z",
"job": "58f0ab4e62697f2db41b2e69", // ref to Job model
"age": 10,
"email": "[email protected]",
"surname": "doe",
"firstName": "john",
"password": "sdlkfjldksfjcdslkjdslkfjsdflkdsjkfsdfjsdfkf"
}
*/
let query = { age: { $gte: 1 } }; // default query
let queryParams = req.query; // query params from FE
let protectedKeys = ['email']; // protected keys == not searchable/filterable
let populate = [{
path: 'contact',
model: 'Contact',
populate: {
path: 'city',
model: 'City'
}
},
{ path: 'job', model: 'Job' }
]; // populate refs
User
.findAndFilter(query, queryParams, protectedKeys, populate)
.then((users) => {
// users will be documents with age>1 and further filtered by query sent as query params from FE
res.status(200).json(users);
})
.catch((err) => {
return next(err);
});
```
### Callback example
```javascript
const User = require('./user.model.js'); // model
let query = { age: { $gte: 0 } }; // default query
let queryParams = req.query; // query params from FE
let protectedKeys = ['email']; // protected keys == not searchable/filterable
let populate = [{
path: 'contact',
model: 'Contact',
populate: {
path: 'city',
model: 'City'
}
},
{ path: 'job', model: 'Job' }
];
User
.findAndFilter(query, queryParams, protectedKeys, populate,
(err, users) => {
if (err) return next(err);
// users will be documents with age>1 and further filtered by query sent as query params from FE
res.status(200).json(users);
});
```
Then if you want to query your endpoint send request in one of the following forms:
```javascript
curl http://localhost:5005/api/v1/users // all users will be returned
curl http://localhost:5005/api/v1/users?username=johndoe // only docs with username=johndoe will be returned
curl http://localhost:5005/api/v1/users?username=johndoe&select=age username // only docs with username=johndoe will be returned and only age and username keys will be selected
curl http://localhost:5005/api/v1/users?username=johndoe&limit=5 // max 5 docs will be returned
curl http://localhost:5005/api/v1/users?username=johndoe&sort=_id // only docs with username=johndoe sorted by _id in ASC order will be returned
curl http://localhost:5005/api/v1/[email protected] // request will respond with 400 bad request as email is protected key
curl http://localhost:5005/api/v1/users?_id=58e0dc934ee10d2f1c2cd0f4 // only doc with _id=58e0dc934ee10d2f1c2cd0f4 will be returned
```
