Usage

Just require the extensions before load your mongoose models:

var mongoose = require('mongoose');
require('mongoose-types-ext')(mongoose);
var YourSchemaDefinition = new mongooseSchema({
    someField: {
        type: String,
        maxLength: 10
    },
    /* (...) */
});
var YourModel = mongoose.model('YourModel', YourSchemaDefinition);

Supported extentions

String

• exactLength: Sets a exact length string validator.

Custom error messages: You can also configure custom error messages and use the special token {EXACT_LENGTH} which will be replaced with the invalid value. Ex:

var rule = [4, 'The length of path `{PATH}` ({VALUE}) should be equal {EXACT_LENGTH}.'];
var schema = new Schema({ n: { type: String, exactLength: rule })
var M = mongoose.model('Measurement', schema);
var s= new M({ n: 'teste' });
s.validate(function (err) {
    console.log(String(err)); // ValidationError: The length of path `n` (test) should be equal 4.
})

Number

• exclusivemin: Sets a minimum number validator not including the configurated value.

Custom error messages: You can also configure custom error messages and use the special token {EXCLUSIVE_MIN} which will be replaced with the invalid value. Ex:

var rule = [10, 'The value of path `{PATH}` ({VALUE}) should be greater than ({EXCLUSIVE_MIN}).'];
var schema = new Schema({ n: { type: Number, exclusivemin: rule })
var M = mongoose.model('Measurement', schema);
var s= new M({ n: 10 });
s.validate(function (err) {
    console.log(String(err)); // ValidationError: The value of path `n` (10) should be greater than 10.
});
