A mongoose plugin which adds promise-based population virtual properties to your

Models

## Installation

Install the module with: `npm install mongoose-ref-promises`

Use it by adding it as a plugin to any mongoose.Schema

```javascript

// [...]

var refPromises = require('mongoose-ref-promises');

UserSchema.plugin(refPromises);

// [...]

```

## Examples

The plugin adds virtual properties to each 'ref' property in your schema.

Say we have this setup.

```javascript

var mongoose = require('mongoose'),

    Schema   = mongoose.Schema,

    ObjectId = Schema.ObjectId;

var refPromises = require('mongoose-ref-promises');

var UserSchema = new Schema({

  friends: [{ type: ObjectId, ref: 'User' }],

  bff:      { type: ObjectId, ref: 'User' }

});

UserSchema.plugin(refPromises);

var User = mongoose.model('User', UserSchema);

```

We can than access the virtual properties ```friendsP``` and ```bffP``` of any

'User' document.

*i.e.*

```javascript

// [...]

user.friendsP

  .then(function(friends) {

    // [...]

  });

```

or

```javascript

// [...]

user.bffP

  .then(function(best_friend_forever) {

    // [...]

  });

```
