Created February 19, 2016 00:54 — forked from fnakstad/gist:5383750
Attaches a function called "seed" to Mongoose models, which basically wraps the create function, but returns a promise. This way seeding can be done through a promise chain.
var mongoose = require('mongoose');
mongoose.Model.seed = function(entities) {
var promise = new mongoose.Promise;
this.create(entities, function(err) {
if(err) { promise.reject(err); }
else { promise.resolve(); }
});
return promise;
};
