Mongoose expand default validation

I want to build \"minLength\" and \"maxLength\" in the mongoose schema validation rules, the current solution is:

var blogSchema = new Schema({
  title: { re         


        

Answer 1

Check out the library mongoose-validator. It integrates the node-validator library for use within mongoose schemas in a very similar way to which you have described.

Specifically, the node-validator len or min and max methods should provide the logic you require.

Try :

var validate = require('mongoose-validator').validate;

var blogSchema = new Schema({
 title: {
    type: String,
    required: true,
    validate: validate('len', 8, 32)
 }
});
