javascript - Saving Mongoose nested schema -

i'm having issue saving nested subdocs - not sure if because it's not array or - docs seem suggest nested objects auto saved not in case.

a child schema:

var address = new schema({   phone: string,   name: string,   street: { type: string, required: true } });

main schema:

var order = new schema({   code: {     type: string   },   address: {     type: schema.types.objectid,     ref: "address"   } });

neither of these work.

create doc doesn't throw errors subdoc not saved

var = new address({ phone: 000 });  var o = new order({ address: }).save();

this gives cast objectid failed error:

var o = new order({ address: { phone: 000 } }).save();

the way seems work saving subdocs first i'd avoid have multiple addresses it's bit messy.

it's weird have never encountered issue - ideas?

ok. evidently cannot use subdocs without array. see post embedded document without array? , bug thread explaining reasoning: https://github.com/learnboost/mongoose/pull/585
