Multiple populates - mongoosejs

Question

Just a simple query, for example with a double ref in the model.

Schema / Model

var OrderSchema = new Schema({

    user: {
                 


        

Answer 1

UPDATE:
This solution remains for the version 3.x of Mongoose
http://mongoosejs.com/docs/3.8.x/docs/populate.html
but is no longer documented for >= 4.x versions of Mongoose and so the answer from @JohnnyHK is the only valid one for now on.

If you're using Mongoose >= 3.6, you can pass a space delimited string of the path names to populate:

OrderModel.find()
    .populate('user meal')
    .exec(function (err, results) {
         // callback
    });
