Mongoose Delete TS Plugin

mongoose-delete-ts is simple and lightweight plugin that enables soft deletion of documents in MongoDB. This code is based on plugin mongoose-delete. But completely re-written in TypeScript and using mongoose query helpers.

Build Status

Installation

Install using npm

npm install mongoose-delete-ts

Before you get started

This plugin uses $equal: true for improved query performance. If you are adding this plugin to an existing project, make sure to manually update all existing documents with deleted=false

Usage

We can use this plugin with or without options.

Simple usage

import mongooseDelete, { Deleted, DeletedQueryHelpers, DeletedMethods, DeletedStaticMethods } from 'mongoose-delete-ts';

type Pet = { name: string } & Deleted;
type PetQueryHelpers = DeletedQueryHelpers<Pet>;
type PetStaticMethods = DeletedStaticMethods<Pet, PetQueryHelpers>;
type PetModel = Model<Pet, PetQueryHelpers, DeletedMethods> & PetStaticMethods;

const petSchema = new Schema<Pet, PetModel, DeletedMethods, PetQueryHelpers, {}, PetStaticMethods>({
	name: String
});

petSchema.plugin(mongooseDelete);

const PetPetModel = mongoose.model<PetModel>('Pet', petSchema);

const fluffy = new PetModel({ name: 'Fluffy' });

await fluffy.save();
// mongodb: { name: 'Fluffy', deleted: false }
await fluffy.delete();
// mongodb: { name: 'Fluffy', deleted: true }
await fluffy.restore();
// mongodb: { name: 'Fluffy', deleted: false }

const examplePetId = mongoose.Types.ObjectId("53da93b16b4a6670076b16bf");

const petDocument = await PetModel.deleteById(examplePetId);
// mongodb: { _id: '53da93b1...', name: 'Fluffy', deleted: true }

Deleted at timestamp

import mongooseDelete, { Deleted, DeletedAt DeletedQueryHelpers, DeletedMethods, DeletedStaticMethods } from 'mongoose-delete-ts';

type Pet = { name: string } & Deleted & DeletedAt;
type PetQueryHelpers = DeletedQueryHelpers<Pet>;
type PetStaticMethods = DeletedStaticMethods<Pet, PetQueryHelpers>;
type PetModel = Model<Pet, PetQueryHelpers, DeletedMethods> & PetStaticMethods;

const petSchema = new Schema<Pet, PetModel, DeletedMethods, PetQueryHelpers, {}, PetStaticMethods>({
	name: String
});

petSchema.plugin(mongooseDelete, { deletedAt: true });

const PetModel = mongoose.model<Pet, PetModel>('Pet', petSchema);

const fluffy = new PetModel({ name: 'Fluffy' });

await fluffy.save();
// mongodb: { name: 'Fluffy', deleted: false }

await fluffy.delete();
// mongodb: { name: 'Fluffy', deleted: true, deletedAt: ISODate("2014-08-01T10:34:53.171Z")}

await fluffy.restore();
// mongodb: { name: 'Fluffy', deleted: false }

Deleted by user

import mongooseDelete, { Deleted, DeletedBy DeletedQueryHelpers, DeletedMethods, DeletedStaticMethods } from 'mongoose-delete-ts';

type Pet = { name: string } & Deleted & DeletedBy<Types.ObjectId>;
type PetQueryHelpers = DeletedQueryHelpers<Pet>;
type PetStaticMethods = DeletedStaticMethods<Pet, PetQueryHelpers> & DeletedByStaticMethods<Pet, Types.ObjectId, PetQueryHelpers>
type PetModel = Model<Pet, PetQueryHelpers, DeletedMethods & DeletedByMethods<Types.ObjectId>> & PetStaticMethods;

const petSchema = new Schema<Pet, PetModel, DeletedMethods, PetQueryHelpers, {}, PetStaticMethods>({
	name: String
});

petSchema.plugin(mongooseDelete, { deletedBy: true });

const PetModel = mongoose.model<Pet, PetModel>('Pet', petSchema);

const fluffy = new PetModel({ name: 'Fluffy' });

await fluffy.save();
// mongodb: { name: 'Fluffy', deleted: false }

const idUser = mongoose.Types.ObjectId("53da93b16b4a6670076b16bf");

await fluffy.deleteByUser(idUser);
// mongodb: { name: 'Fluffy', deleted: true, deletedBy: ObjectId("53da93b16b4a6670076b16bf")}

await fluffy.restore();
// mongodb: { name: 'Fluffy', deleted: false }

The type for deletedBy does not have to be ObjectId, you can set a custom type, such as String.

import mongooseDelete, { Deleted, DeletedBy DeletedQueryHelpers, DeletedMethods, DeletedStaticMethods } from 'mongoose-delete-ts';

type Pet = { name: string } & Deleted & DeletedBy<string>;
type PetQueryHelpers = DeletedQueryHelpers<Pet>;
type PetStaticMethods = DeletedStaticMethods<Pet, PetQueryHelpers> & DeletedByStaticMethods<Pet, string, PetQueryHelpers>
type PetModel = Model<Pet, PetQueryHelpers, DeletedMethods & DeletedByMethods<string>> & PetStaticMethods;

const petSchema = new Schema<Pet, PetModel, DeletedMethods, PetQueryHelpers, {}, PetStaticMethods>({
	name: String
});

petSchema.plugin(mongooseDelete, { deletedBy: { type: String } });

const PetModel = mongoose.model<Pet, PetModel>('Pet', petSchema);

const fluffy = new PetModel({ name: 'Fluffy' });

await fluffy.save();
// mongodb: { deleted: false, name: 'Fluffy' }

const userName = 'John Doe';

await fluffy.deleteByUser(userName)
// mongodb: { name: 'Fluffy', deleted: true, deletedBy: 'John Doe' }

await fluffy.restore()

TypeScript support

Document types

Type Adds property
Deleted document.deleted
DeletedAt document.deletedAt
DeletedBy<TUser> document.deletedBy

Method types

Type Adds method
DeletedMethods document.delete(), document.restore()
DeletedByMethods<TUser> document.deleteByUser(user: TUser)

Static types

Type Adds static methods
DeletedStaticMethods<DocType> Model.restoreOne(...), Model.restoreMany(...)
DeletedByStaticMethods<DocType, TUser> Model.deleteOneByUser(user: TUser, ...), Model.deleteManyByUser(user: TUser, ...)

Query helper types

Type Adds query helpers
DeletedQuery<T> allDocuments(), deletedDocuments()

Bulk delete and restore

// Delete multiple object
PetModel.deleteMany({});
PetModel.deleteMany({ age:10 });
PetModel.deleteManyByUser(idUser, {});
PetModel.deleteManyByUser(idUser, { age: 10 });

// Restore multiple object
PetModel.restoreMany({});
PetModel.restoreMany({ age: 10 });

Method overridden

By default, all standard methods will exclude deleted documents from results, documents that have deleted = true. To override this behavior use allDocuments() or deletedDocuments() query helper functions or simply specify the deleted attribute manually.

only non deleted documents only deleted documents all documents
countDocuments() countDocuments().deletedDocuments() countDocuments().allDocuments()
find() find().deletedDocuments() find().allDocuments()
findById() findById().deletedDocuments() findById().allDocuments()
findOne() findOne().deletedDocuments() findOne().allDocuments()
findOneAndUpdate() findOneAndUpdate().deletedDocuments() findOneAndUpdate().allDocuments()
findByIdAndUpdate() findByIdAndUpdate().deletedDocuments() findByIdAndUpdate().allDocuments()
updateOne() updateOne({ deleted: true }) updateOne({ deleted: { $in: [true, false] } })
updateMany() updateMany({ deleted: true }) updateMany({ deleted: { $in: [true, false] } })
aggregate() aggregate([{ $match: { deleted: true }}]) aggregate([{ $match: { deleted: { $in: [true, false] } }}])

Examples how to override one or multiple methods

// Override all methods (default)
petSchema.plugin(mongooseDelete, { overrideMethods: true });

// Overide only specific methods
petSchema.plugin(mongooseDelete, { overrideMethods: ['countDocuments', 'find', 'findOne'] });

Example of query helpers

// will return only NON DELETED documents
const documents = await PetModel.find();

// will return only DELETED documents
const deletedDocuments = await PetModel.find().deletedDocuments();

// will return ALL documents
const allDocuments = await PetModel.find().allDocuments();

Disable model validation on delete

// By default, validateBeforeDelete is set to true
petSchema.plugin(mongooseDelete);
// the previous line is identical to next line
petSchema.plugin(mongooseDelete, { validateBeforeDelete: true });

// To disable model validation on delete, set validateBeforeDelete option to false
petSchema.plugin(mongooseDelete, { validateBeforeDelete: false });

This is based on existing Mongoose validateBeforeSave option

Create index on fields

// Index only specific fields (default)
petSchema.plugin(mongooseDelete, { indexFields: ['deleted'] });
// or
petSchema.plugin(mongooseDelete, { indexFields: ['deleted', 'deletedAt'] });

// Index all field related to plugin (deleted, deletedAt, deletedBy)
petSchema.plugin(mongooseDelete, { indexFields: true });

Custom field names or schema type definition

type Pet = { name: string; deleted_by?: string; deleted_at?: Date };
type PetQueryHelpers = DeletedQueryHelpers<Pet>;
type PetStaticMethods = DeletedStaticMethods<Pet, PetQueryHelpers> & DeletedByStaticMethods<Pet, string, PetQueryHelpers>
type PetModel = Model<Pet, PetQueryHelpers, DeletedMethods & DeletedByMethods<string>> & PetStaticMethods;

const petSchema = new Schema<Pet, PetModel>({
	name: String
});

// Add a custom name for each property, will create alias for the original name (deletedBy/deletedAt)
petSchema.plugin(mongooseDelete, { deletedBy: 'deleted_by', deletedAt: 'deleted_at' });

// Use custom schema type definition by supplying an object
petSchema.plugin(mongooseDelete, { deletedBy: { name: 'deleted_by', type: String }, deletedAt: { name: 'deleted_at' } });

Expects a Mongoose Schema Types object with the added option of name.
