delete-soft-mongoose v1.0.10

Mongoose Soft Delete Plugin

This Mongoose plugin provides soft deletion functionality for MongoDB, allowing you to mark documents as deleted without physically removing them from the database.

Installation

npm install delete-soft-mongoose

yarn add delete-soft-mongoose

Usage

1. Import the plugin in your Mongoose schema file.

   const softDeletePlugin = require('delete-soft-mongoose');

2. Apply the plugin.

   Apply the plugin To your schema:

   const YourSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
     // ... your schema fields
   });
   YourSchema.plugin(softDeletePlugin);

   Apply the plugin globally.

      const mongoose = require("mongoose");
      const softDeletePlugin = require("delete-soft-mongoose");
      mongoose.plugin(softDeletePlugin)

3. Your schema will now have a deleted field with status, at, and by properties.

   const exampleDocument = new YourModel({
     // ... your document fields
   });
   
   // Soft delete document
   await exampleDocument.softDelete();
