Updating multiple fields in a document with MongooseJS
Let's say I have an ABC diagram that looks like this:
ABC = mongoose.Schema ({
name: String
, x: String
, y: String
, z: String
});
I want to update the x and y fields if the name is the same. Is this possible with MongooseJS API?
I tried the following and didn't work:
ABC = mongoose.createConnection(uri).model('ABC', ABC)
...
ABC.findOne({'name': abc.name}).exec(function(err, found) {
if(found) {
ABC.update({'name':abc.name}, {'x':abc.x, 'y':abc.y}).exec();
}
...
});
Even if possible, is it better to just update the ABC object and use ABC.save (abc) instead? I read on another thread that updating is better than saving because it is stored. It's true?
Any advice is appreciated!
