Building Mongoose Schema with indeterminate number of nested objects -

1. sample dashboard menu data:

const dashboards = [   {"dashboard": "sample",     "items": [       { "title": "title 1" },       { "title": "title 2",         "items": [           { "title": "title 2-1",             "items": [               { "title": "title 2-1-1" },               { "title": "title 2-1-2" }             ]           },           { "title": "title 2-2" }         ]       },       { "title": "title 3",         "items": [           { "title": "title 3-1" },           { "title": "title 3-2",             "items": [               { "title": "title 3-2-1" },               { "title": "title 3-2-2" }             ]           }         ]      },       { "title": "title 4",         "items": [           { "title": "title 4-1" },           { "title": "title 4-2",             "items": [               { "title": "title 4-2-1" },               { "title": "title 4-2-2",                 "items": [                   { "title": "title 4-2-2-1" },                   { "title": "title 4-2-2-2" }                 ]                             }             ]           }         ]             }   ]} ]; 

2. schema attempt:

    const dashboardmenuschema = new schema({       title: {type: string},       items: [{         title: string       }]     }, { _id: true });      dashboardmenuschema.add({ items: [dashboardmenuschema.items] });

my schema not working expected.

what proper approach satisfy , indeterminate number of menu items?

thanks in advance help.

turns out pretty straight forward ....

const itemschema = new mongoose.schema({   title: {type: string}, });   export const dashboardmenuschema = new mongoose.schema({   title: {type: string},   items: [itemschema] }, { _id: true });  dashboardmenuschema.add({ items: [dashboardmenuschema.items] });
