Mongoose delete other objects after update-CodePudding

I'm having trouble with my update query on mongoose. I'm not sure why other objects get deleted after I update a specific object. the code works when I update but after that, the rest of the objects inside the array are getting deleted/removed. Literally, all of the remaining objects get deleted after the update request.

export const updateProduct = async (req,res) => {
     const { id } = req.params;
 
     try {
         if(!mongoose.Types.ObjectId.isValid(id)) return res.status(404).json({ message: 'Invalid ID' });
 
         await OwnerModels.findOneAndUpdate({'_id': id, store:{$elemMatch: {productname: req.body.store[0].productname }}},
             {$set: 
                 {
                     store: 
                         {
                             productname: req.body.store[0].productname,
                             price: req.body.store[0].price,
                             quantity: req.body.store[0].quantity,
                             categoryfilter: req.body.store[0].categoryfilter,
                             description: req.body.store[0].description,
                             timestamp: req.body.store[0].timestamp                        
                         }
                 }
         }, // list fields you like to change
         {'new': true, 'safe': true, 'upsert': true});
 
     } catch (error) {
         res.status(404).json(error)
     } }

Because you are updating the whole object and it will replace the existing store array of object in the database,

You need to use arraFilters, and upsert is not effective in array of object updated, so i have commented,

await OwnerModels.findOneAndUpdate(
    {
        '_id': id, 
        store:{
            $elemMatch: {
                productname: req.body.store[0].productname 
            }
        }
    },
    {
        $set: {
            store: {
                "store.$[s].productname": req.body.store[0].productname,
                "store.$[s].price": req.body.store[0].price,
                "store.$[s].quantity": req.body.store[0].quantity,
                "store.$[s].categoryfilter": req.body.store[0].categoryfilter,
                "store.$[s].description": req.body.store[0].description,
                "store.$[s].timestamp": req.body.store[0].timestamp
            }
        }
    },
    {
        'arrayFilters': [
            { "s.productname": req.body.store[0].productname }
        ],
        'new': true, 
        'safe': true, 
        // 'upsert': true
    }
);
