Location in mongoose, mongoDB

Question

Whenever I try to store a location in my mongodb it doesn\'t show, so I guess I\'m doing something wrong. I can\'t find any documentation on how to store a location in mongo

Looks like your comment is correct (maybe), but the syntax for the index schemetype

here: http://mongoosejs.com/docs/api.html#schematype_SchemaType-index

It only accepts Object, Boolean, String

The correct syntax should be I think

var eventSchema = new Schema({ 
        location: { type: [Number], index: { type: '2dsphere', sparse: true}}
)

based on the example in the docs.
