I find myself recreating user models for Mongoose every time I start a new project, so I thought I'd create a generic schema for a user model that can be added to or modified as need be.

This is loosely based on the Meteor user model (using a "profile" sub-object for the user's personal information). It also includes an optional geolocation point for the user, and Mongoose timestamps, as well as a pre("save") function to bcrypt the user password and a comparePassword() function.

Just save this file wherever you store your models and do something like const Users = include('./models/userSchema.js') and you can just use it as a standard Mongoose user model.

The username/email address definitions were copied from this tutorial: https://thinkster.io/tutorials/node-json-api/creating-the-user-model
