I have this schema and whenever i try to post request using postman, it returns me error as basic is of required type "String" but i have defined it as number. I am also having trouble posting array of objects for bonuses and deductable. It is posting empty array. What is the way to post array of objects in postman?
const LevelSchema = new Schema({
name: {
type: String,
required: true
},
description: {
type: String
},
basic: {
type: Number,
required: true
},
bonuses: [
{
name: {
type: String,
required: true
},
amount: {
type: Number,
required: true
}
}
],
deductables: [
{
name: {
type: String,
required: true
},
amount: {
type: Number,
required: true
}
}
],
is_delete: {
type: Number,
default: 0
}
});
You can create a new schema for bonuses and deductables. Because the share all properties, you can even use the same schema for both. For example:
const BonusesDeductableSchema = new Schema({
name: { type: String, required: true},
amount: { type: String, required: true},
});
And then, apply this schema in your LevelSchema:
const LevelSchema = new Schema({
name: {
type: String,
required: true
},
description: {
type: String
},
basic: {
type: Number,
required: true
},
bonuses: [BonusesDeductableSchema],
deductables: [BonusesDeductableSchema],
is_delete: {
type: Number,
default: 0
}
});
I think this should work.
Then, in your postman, something like this:
{
"name": "string",
"description": "string",
"basic": 1,
"bonuses": [
{
"name": "string",
"amount": 1
},
{
"name": "string",
"amount": 1
}
],
"deductables": [
{
"name": "string",
"amount": 1
},
{
"name": "string",
"amount": 1
}
],
"is_delete": 1
}
Hope I helped.
