I have a schema in which i have an array Modules, in that array i want to get the element which has the same ModuleID as recieved in req.body.ModId, I get that element, and I want to set the ModuleStatement of that element and save it, but it doesn't save the ModuleStatement in database Here is the schema
var botSchema = new Schema({
Bot_name: String,
UserName:String,
Modules: [{
ModuleStatement: String,
ModuleID: String,
ModuleResponse: [{
Response: String,
TransBotID: String
}]
}]
});
following is the query to get the desired element from Modules array
botSchema.find({Bot_name:req.body.BotName},function(err,bot){
if(err){
throw err;
} else{
//update module here
botSchema.find({'Modules.ModuleID':req.body.ModId},{_id:0,Modules:
{$elemMatch:{ModuleID:req.body.ModId
}}},function(err,data){
if(err){
throw err;
} else{
console.log('module array element');
console.log(data[0]);
data[0].ModuleStatement=req.body.Statement;
console.log('module stateupdated',data[0].ModuleStatement);
data[0].save();
res.send('upgraded');
}
})
}
})
this returns the desired element of Modules array which matches the ModuleID with the ModId of req.body, however when i assign it the statement and save the parent document, the changes are not reflected in database. I thought may be the parent document can save the changed stated of element of array so i called the Save() function on the parent document like bot.save() but it didn't work either.How can i save it?
