I have this schema:
var UserSchema = new Schema({
documento: []
});
and this types of documents:
var RgSchema = new Schema({
tipo: 'RG',
numero: stringType(),
orgaoEmissor: stringType(),
dataExpedicao: dateType()
});
var CpfSchema = new Schema({
tipo: 'CPF',
numero: stringType()
});
how to set different types of schema (RgSchema or CpfSchema) in the documento: []?
A kind of this:
documento: [RgSchema || CpfSchema]
I do not think you can achieve this in current version of mongoose. The option I would suggest you to have a common schema for the both with tipo as enum.
var CommonSchema = new Schema({
tipo: {type:String, enum: ['RG', 'CPF']}
numero: stringType(),
orgaoEmissor: stringType(),
dataExpedicao: dateType()
});
Other option is to use different ref for different Schema.
var UserSchema = new Schema({
documenRG: [],
documenCPF: []
});
[{RGref:{...}, CPFref:null}, {RGref:null, CPFref:{...}}, {RGref:{...}, CPFref:null}]. The "UserSchema" or "CommonSchema" in @Jayram's answer facilitates this.
