#mongoose-regexp

Provides Mongoose support for storing RegExp.

Example:

var mongoose = require('mongoose')
require('mongoose-regexp')(mongoose);

var mySchema = Schema({ reg: RegExp });
var M = mongoose.model('RegExp', mySchema);

var m = new M;
m.reg = /^mongodb/i;
m.save(function (err) {
  M.findById(m._id, function (err, doc) {
    var ok = doc.reg.test("MongoDB allows storing RegExps!");
    console.log(ok); // true
  });
});

install

npm install mongoose-regexp

compatibility with other languages

There are no guarantees that RegExps created and stored using another driver and retreived using this module will compile or behave the same as originally intended. This module works best when it is known that RegExps stored and retrevied were generated in Node.js.
