Mongoose Schema #

const restaurantSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
  user: { type: mongoose.Schema.Types.ObjectId, ref: "User" },
  restaurantName: { type: String, required: true },
  city: { type: String, required: true },
  country: { type: String, required: true },
  deliveryPrice: { type: Number, required: true },
  estimatedDeliveryTime: { type: Number, required: true },
  cuisines: [{ type: String, required: true }],
  menuItems: [menuItemSchema],
  imageUrl: { type: String, required: true },
  lastUpdated: { type: Date, default: Date.now },
});

const Restaurant = mongoose.model("Restaurant", restaurantSchema);

Controller 代码 #

const updateMyRestaurant = async (req: Request, res: Response) => {
  try {
    // Log incoming request data
    console.log("Request body before update:", req.body);

    const restaurant = await Restaurant.findOne({ user: req.userId });

    if (!restaurant) {
      return res.status(404).json({ message: "Restaurant not found" });
    }

    // Update fields
    restaurant.restaurantName = req.body.restaurantName;
    restaurant.city = req.body.city;
    restaurant.country = req.body.country;
    restaurant.deliveryPrice = req.body.deliveryPrice;
    restaurant.estimatedDeliveryTime = req.body.estimatedDeliveryTime;
    restaurant.cuisines = req.body.cuisines;
    restaurant.menuItems = req.body.menuItems;
    restaurant.lastUpdated = new Date(); 

    if (req.file) {
      const imageUrl = await uploadImage(req.file as Express.Multer.File);
      restaurant.imageUrl = imageUrl;
    }

    await restaurant.save();
    res.status(200).send(restaurant);
  } catch (error) {
    console.log("Error during restaurant update:", error);
    res.status(500).json({ message: "Something went wrong" });
  }
};

已尝试的排查步骤 #

• 保存文档前显式为lastUpdated赋值new Date()
• 调用save()前打印lastUpdated值，确认已被设置
• 反复检查Schema，确认lastUpdated有默认值且未标记为必填

问题分析与解决建议 #

可能的原因 #

1. 编译后代码未更新：使用TypeScript开发时，修改Schema后未重新编译，导致运行的dist目录仍使用旧Schema（旧Schema可能给lastUpdated设置了required: true）。
2. 数据库文档缺失字段：目标Restaurant文档在数据库中本身没有lastUpdated字段，Mongoose默认值仅在新建文档时自动填充，更新现有文档时不会主动补全缺失字段，若存在隐式必填验证就会触发错误。
3. 中间件干扰：存在未注意到的pre('save')中间件，在保存前将lastUpdated重置为undefined。
4. 字段赋值被覆盖：lastUpdated赋值后，被后续逻辑意外覆盖或清除，导致验证时字段值为undefined。

解决建议 #

1. 重新编译并重启服务：执行tsc编译命令更新dist目录代码，再重启服务，确保最新Schema生效。
2. 检查并补全数据库字段：直接查看MongoDB中目标文档，若lastUpdated缺失，手动添加该字段，或在更新逻辑中先判断字段是否存在再赋值。
3. 替换更新方式：改用findOneAndUpdate替代文档实例的save()方法，直接在更新对象中指定lastUpdated并启用验证：

const updatedRestaurant = await Restaurant.findOneAndUpdate(
  { user: req.userId },
  {
    ...req.body,
    lastUpdated: new Date(),
    ...(req.file ? { imageUrl: await uploadImage(req.file as Express.Multer.File) } : {})
  },
  { new: true, runValidators: true }
);

4. 排查中间件逻辑：检查Restaurant模型的pre('save')钩子，确认是否存在修改lastUpdated的代码。
5. 临时关闭验证排查：在save()时添加{ validateBeforeSave: false }，若能成功保存，说明问题出在验证环节，再针对性排查Schema或字段赋值问题。
