Can I nest objects?

I'm looking at a node/express/mongoose tutorial where you could do this

var Images = new Schema({
    kind: { 
        type: String, 
        enum: ['thumbnail', 'catalog', 'detail', 'zoom'],
        required: true
    },
    url: { type: String, required: true }
});

var Product = new Schema({
    title: { type: String, required: true },
    images: [Images],
});

Is there a way to do something similar with jugglingdb?

Re: enum: ['thumbnail', 'catalog', 'detail', 'zoom'],

It could be handled on adapter level, i mean sql/mongodb adapters with specific implementation on data definition. But it you need enum for validation this is bad idea to list it in schema, use validations instead.

Re: images: [Images]

Yes, we are close to this. And again - it's adapter specific, but in jugglingdb we have a List class, which allows to use [] as type (untyped for now), it serialized as json now (I need it for redis and mysql), for mongodb it could be used as nested document, but IMO nested documents in mongo isn't really good practice (in common sense), i might be wrong, feel free to suggest implementation notes in that case.

That's actually THE Mongo way. I personally prefer ArangoDB
