Description

Builds on earlier issue #12069 where Document and InferSchemaType does not infer timestamp fields into Typescript types.

Renamed timestamp fields are not extracted using Document and InferSchemaType.

Steps to Reproduce

import { Schema, InferSchemaType, Document } from 'mongoose';

const MySchema = new Schema({ 
  username: String,
}, {
  timestamps: {
    createdAt: "date_joined",
    updatedAt: false,
  },
});

export type MyType = Document & InferSchemaType<typeof MySchema>;

Expected Behavior

We expect MyType to be:

type MyType = {
  username: String,
  date_joined: Date,
};

We get:

type MyType = {
  username: String,
};

Note how not even createdAt is on the type. Looking at the actual Document, we will see a type that looks like our expected type (with username, date_joined, and no updatedAt field).

We'll add support for this in the future. But, in the meantime, I recommend you add date_joined to your schema manually as follows.

const MySchema = new Schema({ 
  username: String,
  date_joined: Date,
}, {
  timestamps: {
    createdAt: "date_joined",
    updatedAt: false,
  },
});

The way I added my timestamps is as follows:

const MySchema = new Schema({ username: String, date_joined: Date, }, { timestamps: true });
