mongodb填充方法不起作用

标签: node.js mongodb model populate auto-populate

这是我的模型代码

var postSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
created_by: {type: Schema.ObjectId, ref:'User', autopopulate: true },       //should be changed to ObjectId, ref "User"
created_at: {type: Date, default: Date.now},
text: String
});

var userSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
    username: String,
    password: String, //hash created from password
    created_at: {type: Date, default: Date.now}
});

下面是我如何插入数据并尝试使用populate方法检索它的代码。

Post.create({text: 'farheen123',created_by: '5587bb520462367a17f242d2'}, function(err, post){
if(err) console.log("Farheen has got error"+err);
else console.log(post);
});

// 5587f5556e6f2b38244d02d1:已创建用户的_id

        Post
        .findOne({ _id: '5587f5556e6f2b38244d02d1' })
        .populate('created_by')
        .exec(function (err, story) {
          if (err) return handleError(err);
          console.log('The creator is %s', story);
          // prints "The creator is Aaron"
        });

我得到的结果如下。它为created_by提供numm引用,而不是提供该id的用户名和密码。

The creator is { _id: 5587f5556e6f2b38244d02d1,
  text: 'farheen123',
  created_by: null,
  __v: 0,
  created_at: Mon Jun 22 2015 17:15:25 GMT+0530 (IST) }

创建Post模型的实例时,需要将_id作为ObjectId分配给用户,而不是字符串:

var ObjectId = require('mongoose').Types.ObjectId; 
Post.create({
    text: 'farheen123',
    created_by: new ObjectId('5587bb520462367a17f242d2')
}, function(err, post) {
   if(err) console.log("Farheen has got error"+err);
   else console.log(post);
});
