# mongoose-throw-unselected

Throws an error whenever you access a field on a mongoose document that is not selected

## Usage

```javascript
const mongooseThrowUnselected = require('mongoose-throw-unselected');
```

# examples

## It throws an error if accessing a field that is not included in the projection

If you explicitly exclude a field (like via `.select()` on a query) and you access that
field, this plugin will throw an error. This plugin adds a custom setter on each field that checks
if the [field is included by checking `isSelected()`](http://mongoosejs.com/docs/api.html#document_Document-isSelected).

```javascript
const schema = new mongoose.Schema({
name: {
first: String,
last: String,
},
age: Number
});

schema.plugin(mongooseThrowUnselected);

const Model = mongoose.model('Person', schema);

return Model.create({ name: { first: 'Valeri', last: 'Karpov' }, age: 28 }).
// Explicitly exclude 'name.first'
then(() => Model.findOne().select({ 'name.first': false })).
then(doc => {
assert.throws(() => doc.name.first);
assert.doesNotThrow(() => doc.name);
assert.equal(doc.name.last, 'Karpov');
assert.equal(doc.age, 28);
});
```
