Mongoose Path "." is required - problem with PostmanMocking? - mongodb

Question

i am testing my mongoose (for MongoDB) schema, and I encountered an validation issue. After making POST verb I am getting en error:
"message": {
"errors": {
"number": {
"message": "Path `number` is required.",
"name": "ValidatorError",
"properties": {
"message": "Path `number` is required.",
"type": "required",
"path": "number"
},
"kind": "required",
"path": "number"
}
},
"_message": "eventArrayModel validation failed",
"message": "eventArrayModel validation failed: number: Path `number` is required.",
"name": "ValidationError"
}
This is my mocked json in Postman:
JSON mocked file
{
"arrayName": "displayedEvents",
"number": "4"
}
And this is my mongoose schema:
const mongoose = require("mongoose");
const eventSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
title: {
type: String,
// required: true,
},
start: {
type: Date,
// required: true,
},
end: {
type: Date,
// required: true,
},
allDay: {type: Boolean, default: true},
resource: {
type: String,
// required: true,
},
});
const eventArrayModel = mongoose.model("eventArrayModel", {
arrayName: {
type: String,
required: true,
},
array: {type: [eventSchema]} ,
number: {
type: Number,
required: true,
}
});
module.exports = eventArrayModel;
And the get router:
router.get('/', async (req,res)=> {
try{
const posts = await eventArrayModel.find();
res.json(posts);
}catch(err){
res.json({message: err});
}
});
I can't see anything wrong about this code. It works fine without number field.

Okey I found it, this part of code
router.post('/', async(req,res)=>{
const post = new eventArrayModel({
arrayName: req.body.arrayName
});
try {
const savedPost = await post.save();
res.json(savedPost);
}catch(err){
res.json({message: err});
}
});
Should looks more like this:
router.post('/', async(req,res)=>{
const post = new eventArrayModel({
arrayName: req.body.arrayName,
array: req.body.array,
myNumber: req.body.myNumber
});
try {
const savedPost = await post.save();
res.json(savedPost);
}catch(err){
res.json({message: err});
}
});
