--description--
Recent versions of Mongoose have methods to simplify documents updating. Some more advanced features (i.e. pre/post hooks, validation) behave differently with this approach, so the classic method is still useful in many situations. findByIdAndUpdate()
can be used when searching by id.
--instructions--
Modify the findAndUpdate
function to find a person by Name
and set the person's age to 20
. Use the function parameter personName
as the search key.
Note: You should return the updated document. To do that, you need to pass the options document { new: true }
as the 3rd argument to findOneAndUpdate()
. By default, these methods return the unmodified object.
--hints--
findOneAndUpdate an item should succeed
(getUserInput) =>
$.post(getUserInput('url') + '/_api/find-one-update', {
name: 'Dorian Gray',
age: 35,
favoriteFoods: ['unknown']
}).then(
(data) => {
assert.equal(data.name, 'Dorian Gray', 'item.name is not what expected');
assert.equal(data.age, 20, 'item.age is not what expected');
assert.deepEqual(
data.favoriteFoods,
['unknown'],
'item.favoriteFoods is not what expected'
);
assert.equal(
data.__v,
0,
'findOneAndUpdate does not increment version by design!'
);
},
(xhr) => {
throw new Error(xhr.responseText);
}
);
