How do you ref other models? about adonis-mongoose-model HOT 4 CLOSED

Idk why it's saying about overriding the User model, cause it's not involved on that file it seems.

Try to debug it by logging each step, so you'll now if something is trying to redefine the User.
Maybe the problem is not with this file?

Also you could use schemaOptions to define the toObject and to JSON

static get schemaOptions() {
  return {
    toObject: { virtuals: true },
    toJSON, { virtuals: true }
  }
}

@juampi92 Sorry I left the last line which builds the model (that exists at the end of each model)

from adonis-mongoose-model.

I seem to have fixed it by changing the last line on the required models to:

module.exports = require('mongoose').models.Account || Account.buildModel('Account')

and

module.exports = require('mongoose').models.User || Account.buildModel('User')

from adonis-mongoose-model.

Mmm but that does not make sense. It seems that you have to check if mongoose has already defined.
You shouldn't.

If it throws an error is because the model is being defined somewhere else, and you need to know that.
You shouldn't build a model without doing Account.buildModel('Account').

Check for a duplicated definition of buildModel('User')
