How to write a Mongoose model in ES6 / ES2015

Question

I want to write my mongoose model in ES6. Basically replace module.exports and other ES5 things wherever possible. Here is what I have.

import mongo         


        

Answer 1

Why would you want to do it? mongoose.Schema is not expected to be used in this way. It doesn't use inheritance.

mongoose.Schema is a constructor that takes an object as the first parameter both in ES5 and ES6. No need for ES6 classes here.

Thus even with ES6 the proper way is to have:

const Blacklist = mongoose.Schema({
  type: String,
  ip: String,
  details: String,
  reason: String,
});
