Adding json response to a Map field Mongoose Node - node.js

Question

I'm just starting out whit node and mongoose and I'm trying to create a user, then create a stripe customer with a stripe generated id and save the response in a user Map field stripeDetails.
Here is the schema:
const mongoose = require('mongoose');
const userSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
name: { type: String, required: true },
email: { type: String, required: true },
photoUrl: { type: String, required: true },
phoneNumber: { type: String, required: false },
address: { type: String, required: false },
zipCode: { type: String, required: false },
city: { type: String, required: true },
region: { type: String, required: true },
country: { type: String, required: true },
isVerified: { type: Boolean, required: false, default: false },
lastLogin: { type: Number, required: false, default: Date.now },
stripeDetails: {type: Map, required: false}
},
{ timestamps: true });
module.exports = mongoose.model('User', userSchema, 'Users');
I tried setting the stripeDetails field like
.then(stripeCustomer => {
console.log('Stripe.customer.create', stripeCustomer);
result.set('stripeDetails', stripeCustomer);
result.save();
...
but is not working.. I settle to update the record's field but is a bit messy..
exports.createUser = async (req, res) => {
const user = req.body;
console.log('User is :', user);
/// Creat use in DB
User.create(
user,
function (err, result) {
if (err) {
console.log('Mongoose createUser error: ', err);
res.statut(503).send({ error: "Internal error" });
return;
}
console.log('Mongoose createUser: ', result);
res.status(200).send({
message: "User created successfully!",
data: result
});
/// Create stripe customer
stripe.customers.create({
"address": {
"city": user.city,
"state": user.region,
"country": user.country,
"postal_code": user.zipCode
},
"balance": 0,
"created": Date.now,
"email": user.email,
"name": user.name,
"phone": user.phoneNumber,
"preferred_locales": [],
"shipping": null,
"tax_exempt": "none"
})
.then(stripeCustomer => {
console.log('Stripe.customer.create', stripeCustomer);
// save stripe details to db
//not working..
// result.set('stripeDetails', stripeCustomer);
// result.save();
// working
User.findByIdAndUpdate(
result.id,
{stripeDetails: stripeCustomer},
{ new: true },
function(err, result) {
if (err) {
console.log('Stripe customer not updated to db: ', err);
}
if (result != null){
console.log('Stripe customer updated to DB', result);
} else {
console.log('Stripe customer to update not found in db ');
}
}
);
})
.catch(error => {
console.log('Stripe.customer.create error: ', error);
});
}
);
};
also I can't access the stripeDetails.id value for when I need to delete the user..
exports.deleteUserById = async (req, res) => {
const id = req.params.id;
User.findByIdAndDelete(
id,
function (err, result) {
if (err) {
console.log('Mongoose deleteUserById error: ', err);
res.statur(505).send({ errro: "Internal error" });
}
if (result != null) {
console.log('Mongoose deleteUserById: ', result);
res.status(200).send({
message: "User found!",
data: result
});
console.log('stripe id is: ', result.stripeDetails['id']);
stripe.customers.del(`${result.stripeDetails['id']}`)
.then(stripeCustomer => {
console.log('Stripe.customer.delete', stripeCustomer);
})
.catch(error => {
console.log('Stripe.customer.delete error: ', error);
});
} else {
console.log("Mongoose deleteUserById: user not found");
res.status(404).send({ message: "User not found" });
}
});
}
I could use the mongoose _id as the stripe id but I rather use their own separate id generators and keep the ids separate, and get used to work with maps in mongoose. Can you see what I'm doing wrong with in writing and reading stripeDetails?

Try to change stripeDetails in Schema to be of type Object:
stripeDetails: {type: Object, required: false}
Now you can do this:
.then(stripeCustomer => {
result.stripeDetails.details = stripeCustomer;
User.findByIdAndUpdate(result.id, result).then((result)=>{
console.log('User updated.');
})
})
Note that when you are using Map as a type, you should access the value of a key with .get(). So try to access stripe_id like this:
let stripe_id = result.stripeDetails.get("id");
stripe.customers.del(stripe_id)
.then(stripeCustomer => {
console.log('Stripe.customer.delete', stripeCustomer);
})
.catch(error => {
console.log('Stripe.customer.delete error: ', error);
});
