getting schema attributes from Mongoose Model

Question

I\'m using Mongoose.js to create models with schemas.

I have a list of models (many) and at times I\'d like to get the attributes/keys that make up a particular mo

Answer 1

Don't have enough rep to comment, but this also spits out a list and loops through all of the schema types.

mySchema.schema.eachPath(function(path) {
    console.log(path);
});

should print out:

number
name.first
name.last
ssn
birthday
job.company
job.position
address.city
address.state
address.country
address.street
address.number
address.zip
email
phones
tags
createdBy
createdAt
updatedBy
updatedAt
meta
_id
__v

Or you could get all Attributes as an Array like this:

var props = Object.keys(mySchema.schema.paths);
