[forest] 🌳🌳🌳 Cannot customize your collection named "users" properly. about forest-express-mongoose

[arnaudbesnier]

The new option will be:

app.use(require('forest-express-mongoose').init({
    modelsDir: __dirname + '/models',  // Your models directory.
    configDir: __dirname + '/my/forest/custom/directory',  // Your Forest Smart implementation directory.
    envSecret: config.forest.env_secret,
    authSecret: config.forest.auth_secret,
    mongoose: mongoose // The database connection.
}));

Hey @GautierT

Thanks for your issue! Can you check if your collection name (not your mongoose model name) is users?

You're right, you don't have to require the file manually.

@GautierT any news on this issue?
Did you eventually manage to customize your users collection?

[GautierT]

Yes but with a workaround thanks to a skype with @SeyZ.
The problem is the same that in this issue : ForestAdmin/forest-express#6
And i still can't put my admin to production because of this.

The feature is now in code review and will be released soon.
