Support compound index in @Schema decorator

[GiovanniCardamone]

Is there an existing issue that is already proposing this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe it

Mongo support compound index compound index

and would be nice to declare the compound index directly in the schema decorator

Mongoose already support the compound index creation

Describe the solution you'd like

here is an example

@Schema({
  compounds: [
    [{ name: 1, surname: 1 }, { unique: true }]
  ]
})
class MyCollection {
  @Prop()
  name: string
  
  @Prop()
  surname: string
}

Teachability, documentation, adoption, migration strategy

Documentations:

https://mongoosejs.com/docs/api/schema.html#Schema.prototype.index()

https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/core/index-compound/

What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior?

because make it more readable and i think compund index should be part of Schema definition

You should use YOUR_SCHEMA.index() method for this.

There are no plans to implement it in the foreseeable future.

If you think your request could live outside Nest's scope, we'd encourage you to collaborate with the community on publishing it as an open source package.
