Add a Model

Define a database schema

Model example

Here is a sample model that you can use as a start up

let mongoose = require("mongoose");
let schema = mongoose.Schema({
  title: {
    type: String,
    required: [true, "title must be set"],
  },
  body: {
    type: String,
  },
  category: {
    lowercase: true,
    type: String,
    enum: ["technology", "information", "fashion"],
    default: "technology",
  },
  updated: {
    type: Date,
  },
  date: {
    type: Date,
    default: Date.now(),
  },
});
schema.pre("save", async function (next) {
  this.updated = new Date();
  next();
});
let model = mongoose.model("blogModel", schema);
module.exports = model;
