All I want to do is create fixtures for my application doing:
1. Retrive an "profile" from a mongo db collection
2. Create a new empty object object and fill it with some data from the
above profile
3. "export" the object, in this case a "Message"
The module that needs a Message instance is a library called
'pow-mongoose-fixtures'. It searches a "fixtures" folder and creates
fixures using alle the files it finds in this folder provided each of these
files export a Mongoose instance. My problem is just that the "Message"
instance that I am created depends on the results of a profile instance.
Was this a bit clearer? How can I create an Instance and delay passing it
to exports?
Thanks
