For more than a month, i've been working with project that involving nodejs. For someone who does not have javascript background like me, it was very tiring. I will tell another story in another post, but now i'll post about module.exports behavior.

Let's check following code

Ther first code

module.exports = function(db) {
    var schema = require('../../config/schema.js').user(db.Schema);

    return db.model('User', schema);
}

The second code

module.exports = function() {
    var db = global.db;
    var schema = require('../../config/schema.js').user(db.Schema);

    return db.model('User', schema);
}

both code have different behavior, the first code will return the model object, the second code will return the function.

Have a nice time.
