Mongoose Schema secured field

Question

Short and clear: is there any way to prevent setting a schema field but allowing to get the value?

I\'ve been around the Mongoose Documentation but can\'t find what

Answer 1

You can just return from set the same value as the default value, no need to reference the _this document:

var schema = new Schema({
  securedField: {
    type: String,
    default: 'Forever',
    set: () => 'Forever'
});
