Enum validator for number schema type transpiled from Typescript

[amanfrinati]

I have a problem with the generation of random value of enum (I created an enum in typescript) if I set an enum validator on the mongoose schema, where the enum is this:

export enum TicketStatus {
  CLOSED = 0,
  OPEN = 1
}

I have a mongoose schema like this:

const schema = new Schema(
  {
    status: {
      type: Number,
      default: TicketStatus.OPEN,
      enum: TicketStatus
    },
  ...
})

I expect that the value generated was into [0, 1] but it use a random numeric value. I saw that mongoose add an enumValidator to the schema with the values { 0: "CLOSED", 1: "OPEN", CLOSED: 0, OPEN: 1 }.

I'm using:

• Typescript ^4.2.4
• Mongoose ^5.9.7

Sorry about the late response. I hope u found a workaround. I will eventually fix this bug, but for now, you can use an enum array like below

const schema = new Schema(
  {
    status: {
      type: Number,
      default: 0,
      enum: [0, 1]
    },
  ...
})
