noSchema does not exist

[jameshfisher]

The intros at http://www.learnboost.com/mongoose/ and http://labs.learnboost.com/mongoose/ reference mongoose.noSchema. It doesn't exist:

node> sys.puts(sys.inspect(mongoose));
{ _config: { log: true }
, _models: {}
, _connections: 
   { 'mongodb://localhost/test': 
      { base: [Circular]
      , uri: [Object]
      , name: 'test'
      , _compiled: {}
      , _collections: {}
      , db: [Object]
      , _events: [Object]
      , _connected: true
      }
   }
, connect: [Function]
, model: [Function]
, _open: [Function]
, _onError: [Function]
, _lookup: [Function]
, set: [Function]
, enable: [Function]
, disable: [Function]
, super_: 
   { emit: [Function]
   , addListener: [Function]
   , removeListener: [Function]
   , removeAllListeners: [Function]
   , listeners: [Function]
   }
, prototype: { constructor: [Circular] }
}

Are those docs out of date?

as far as i can tell they are out of date. i ran into the same question as well. i would say only refer to the documentation here in the helpme.md http://github.com/LearnBoost/mongoose#readme

This is a big one for me. It's preventing me from using mongoose at all.

I'd be willing to offer a patch if someone could give me some direction on the code in question.

[cginzel]

you can always look at the older code base. the archive at this link still has some of this original code... http://github.com/LearnBoost/mongoose/downloads

noSchema being gone doesn't mean mongoose is not schema-free. If you don't need a "model schema", then you can access mongodb-native directly through _collection()

[smtlaissezfaire]

That seems like a strange, intentionally hidden interface. If it should be used, should it be named collection()?
