Du skal have en separat eksamenssamling til dette.(Det er ligesom den mellemliggende (associative) tabel i relationelle databaser.)
En måde at løse dette på er at bruge virtual populate. Med virtuel populate behøver vi ikke opbevare referencer til eksamenerne, hvilket vil forenkle tingene, når en eksamen tilføjes, opdateres eller slettes. Fordi det kun er eksamenssamlingen, der skal opdateres.
patient.js
const mongoose = require("mongoose");
const patientSchema = new mongoose.Schema(
{
name: String
},
{
toJSON: { virtuals: true }
}
);
// Virtual populate
patientSchema.virtual("examinations", {
ref: "Examination",
foreignField: "patientId",
localField: "_id"
});
module.exports = mongoose.model("Patient", patientSchema);
hospital.js
const mongoose = require("mongoose");
const hospitalSchema = new mongoose.Schema(
{
name: String
},
{
toJSON: { virtuals: true }
}
);
// Virtual populate
hospitalSchema.virtual("examinations", {
ref: "Examination",
foreignField: "hospitalId",
localField: "_id"
});
module.exports = mongoose.model("Hospital", hospitalSchema);
eksamen.js
const mongoose = require("mongoose");
const examinationSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
when: {
type: Date,
default: Date.now()
},
patientId: {
type: mongoose.Schema.Types.ObjectId,
ref: "Patient"
},
hospitalId: {
type: mongoose.Schema.Types.ObjectId,
ref: "Hospital"
}
});
module.exports = mongoose.model("Examination", examinationSchema);
Som du kan se, er vores patient- og hospitalsskemaer meget rene uden nogen undersøgelsesreference.
Lad os få disse eksisterende patienter.

Hvis vi nu ønsker at få information om en patient og hans/hendes undersøgelser, kan vi bruge følgende kode:
app.get("/patients/:id", async (req, res) => {
const result = await Patient.findById(req.params.id).populate("examinations");
res.send(result);
});
Resultatet bliver således:
{
"_id": "5e0f86d0ea3eb831a4845064",
"name": "Patient 1",
"__v": 0,
"examinations": [
{
"when": "2020-01-03T18:27:12.997Z",
"_id": "5e0f878346e50d41d846d482",
"patientId": "5e0f86d0ea3eb831a4845064",
"hospitalId": "5e0f86feea3eb831a4845066",
"__v": 0
},
{
"when": "2020-01-03T18:27:12.997Z",
"_id": "5e0f87a646e50d41d846d483",
"patientId": "5e0f86d0ea3eb831a4845064",
"hospitalId": "5e0f86feea3eb831a4845066",
"__v": 0
},
{
"when": "2020-01-03T18:27:12.997Z",
"_id": "5e0f87c446e50d41d846d484",
"patientId": "5e0f86d0ea3eb831a4845064",
"hospitalId": "5e0f8705ea3eb831a4845067",
"__v": 0
}
],
"id": "5e0f86d0ea3eb831a4845064"
}
Vi kan endda befolke hospitalet sådan her med en indre befolkning:
app.get("/patients/:id", async (req, res) => {
const result = await Patient.findById(req.params.id).populate({
path: "examinations",
populate: {
path: "hospitalId"
}
});
res.send(result);
});
Resultatet vil indeholde hospitalsoplysningerne:
{
"_id": "5e0f86d0ea3eb831a4845064",
"name": "Patient 1",
"__v": 0,
"examinations": [
{
"when": "2020-01-03T18:27:12.997Z",

Med denne viden kan du nu selv implementere genfindingsoperationerne fra hospitalets side.
