Why Findrandom() Mongoose For Node.js Method Doesn't Work?

Schema: var random = require('mongoose-random'); var productSchema = new mongoose.Schema(...) productSchema.plugin(random, {path: 'r'}); var products = mongoose.model('sportsStor

Solution 1:

And probably solution could be here - see the comments on npm page mongoose-random example .

// if you have an existing collection, it must first by synced.// this will add random data for the `path` key for each doc.

Try

productSchema.syncRandom(function (err, result) {
   console.log(result.updated);
});

Solution 2:

Try to change the line

productSchema.plugin(random, {path: 'r'});

To

productSchema.plugin(random());

Wasn't tested, but should work.
