Correct MongoDB hierarchy to use?
I am building an app for sharing summaries between students that behaves like a social network.
A signed user will be able to upload summaries and access a feed of uploaded summaries.
The way I have it right now:
user schema:
var userSchema = mongoose.Schema({
username : String,
password : String,
summeries: [mongoose.Schema.Types.ObjectId]
});
summaries schema:
var summerySchema = mongoose.Schema({
title : String,
username : String,
date: Date
});
I want to change it so that summerySchema is embedded to userSchema like this:
var userSchema = mongoose.Schema({
username : String,
password : String,
summeries: [summerySchema]
});
but if do so, how do I query the (let's say) 10 newest summaries from all users? (without going through the entire database? in fear of very long wait time and server overload).
javascript node.js mongodb express mongoose
