I am new to Node.js, mongodb and mongoose. I want to pass some parameter in creating a new document. For example, that is the typical example of creating a new document:

var animalSchema = new Schema({ name: String, type: String });
var Animal = mongoose.model('Animal', animalSchema);
var dog = new Animal({ type: 'dog' });

And I want do something like this:

var dog = new Animal( Array );

So I want to create custom constructor for a new document. But I dont know where and how I can set a custom constructor like that in mongoose.

I have a stackoverflow post with a similar name but it seems not be something that I want: Custom constructor function in Mongoose schema/models

Maybe I make a silly mistake. Welcome to any ideas.

Thanks
