jsdream / mongoose-advanced-encryption Goto Github PK

This plugin has been very useful for my project. One thing I am struggling with currently is that I am trying to encrypt properties of an array but they do not seem to be encrypted at all.

Schema definition is as so - there are many more properties I would like to encrypt inside the array but I'll demonstrate one:

timesheets: [{
    ordinary_total: {
        type: String,
        trim: true,
        required: 'Please fill in <strong>Ordinary Total</strong>!',
        encrypt: true
    }
}]

This results in unencrypted normal data in the array for "ordinary_total". However root level Schema properties are encrypted without issue like so:

ordinary_total: {
    type: String,
    trim: true,
    required: 'Please fill in <strong>Ordinary Total</strong>!',
    encrypt: true
}

Is this because the encryption only works on String schema types? So it doesn't work as it is a String inside an Array?

Any guidance would be great.
Cheers
