Mongoose query returns empty

Question

I am trying to create a Node.js API endpoint to return some values for population of a select control.

I have the following document in a collection called projectStatusValues...

{
  "_id": {
    "$oid": "5cab4b2b38802527df2f7ab2"
  },
  "projectStatusDesc": [
    "Complete",
    "Pre-Start",
    "Active"
  ]
}

And my Mongoose model is defined as...

const projStatusModel = mongoose.model("projectStatusValues", {
    "projectStatusDesc": [
        String
    ]
});

The finally, I'm using this code to retrieve the array values...

app.get('/v1/projStatus', async (request, response) => {
    try {
        var status = await projStatusModel.find().exec();
        response.send(status);
    } catch (error) {
        response.status(500).send(error);
    }
});

The endpoint looks good and I get a 200 response but an empty string is returned. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Answer 1

You are missing Schema

const Schema = mongoose.Schema;
const projStatusModel = mongoose.model("projectStatusValues", new Schema ({
    "projectStatusDesc": [
        String
    ]
}));

将集合从projectStatusValues重命名为projectstatusvalues，并且可以正常工作。
