# Mongoose Soft Delete Plugin

Mongoose plugin that enables soft deletion of Models/Documents.

This plugin is based on the work of [Yi](https://github.com/yi).

## What's Different

In the original plugin, models were deleted with a date reference only. This version takes that and uses a Boolean flag to to mark models deleted/restored. Adds `deletedAt` field to record when a document was deleted. Additionally, it removes a lot of overhead from the original code and doesn't use Coffeescript.

Also checkout [Mongoose Delete](https://github.com/dsanel/mongoose-delete) by [Sanel Deljkic](https://github.com/dsanel).

## License

This plugin is licensed under the MIT license and can ve viewed in the LICENSE file.

## Installation

Install using [npm](https://npmjs.org)

```

npm install mongoose-softdelete --save

```

## Tests

IMPORTANT: You need to have MongoDB running to run tests

```

npm test

```

## Usage

**models/test.js**

```js

const mongoose = require('mongoose'),

    Schema = mongoose.Schema,

    soft_delete = require('mongoose-softdelete');

const TestSchema = new Schema({

  somefield: { type: String, default: 'Hello World!' },

});

TestSchema.plugin(soft_delete);

mongoose.model('Test', TestSchema);

```

**controllers/test.js**

```js

const Test = mongoose.model('Test');

const test = new Test();

test.softdelete(function (err, newTest) {

  if (err) {

    callback(err);

  }

  callback(null, newTest);

});

test.restore(function (err, newTest) {

  if (err) {

    callback(err);

  }

  callback(null, newTest);

});

// chainable query method

// defaults to true unless specified

Test.find().isDeleted(false).exec();

```

## Typescript

```ts

import { Schema, model } from 'mongoose';

import softdelete, { ISoftDeletedDocument } from 'mongoose-softdelete';

interface ITestDocument extends ISoftDeletedDocument {

    somefield: string;

}

const TestSchema = new Schema({

    somefield: { type: String, default: 'Hello World!' }

});

TestSchema.plugin(softdelete);

const Test = model('Test', TestSchema);

const test1 = new Test();

test1.softdelete(function (err, newTest: ITestDocument) {

    // ...

});

// chainable query method

// defaults to true unless specified

(Test.find({}) as unknown as ISoftDeletedDocumentQuery).isDeleted(false)

```
