Using ObjectId Type
Using the type ObjectId
can be done by defining it as follows:
import mongoose from 'mongoose';
import { prop } from '@typegoose/typegoose';
class FooModel {
@prop()
userId: mongoose.Types.ObjectId;
}
You need to refer to the full length type since defining it as type ObjectId = mongoose.Types.ObjectId
and referencing that will lead to it being an Object
at compile time, meaning Typegoose will translate the property type to Mixed
.
In order to query this model later you should use the type mongoose.Types.ObjectId
.
const FooModel = getModelForClass(FooModel);
FooModel.findOne({ userId: new mongoose.Types.ObjectId('5e997f95d6a35f3a0def3339') });
