Which SchemaType in Mongoose is Best for Timestamp?

by

Edit – 20 March 2016

Mongoose now support timestamps for collections.

Please consider the answer of @bobbyz below. Maybe this is what you are looking for.

Original answer

Mongoose supports a Date type (which is basically a timestamp):

time : { type : Date, default: Date.now }

With the above field definition, any time you save a document with an unset time field, Mongoose will fill in this field with the current time.
