Design Basic User Collection Schema

MongoDB

Node.js

Technical Specification

Design a basic user document structure for MongoDB including name, email, passwordHash, roles, createdAt.

Input/Output Samples

Input:User signup

Output:{ name, email, passwordHash, roles: ['user'], createdAt }

Optimal Logic Path

// Example shape (no strict schema in MongoDB)
{
  name: "Happy",
  email: "happy@example.com",
  passwordHash: "hashed_password_here",
  roles: ["user"],
  createdAt: new Date(),
}

Architectural Deep-Dive

MongoDB stores flexible JSON-like documents, so we define a consistent shape for user documents.
