Usage

var mongoose = require('mongoose');
var Schema = mongoose.Schema;
var validId = require('mongoose-valid-id');

var Page = new Schema({
    title : { type : String, required : true},
    content : { type : String, required : true },
    path : { type : String, required : true},
    tags : [String],

    lastModified : Date,
    created : Date
});

Page.plugin(mongoose-valid-id);
