     },
     isFirstAuth: {
          type: 'boolean',
     },
};

export default UserSchema;
```

#### Specific module with .env settings

```ts
@Module({
     imports: [NeodeModule.forFeature({ User: UserSchema })],
     controllers: [UserController],
     providers: [UserService],
})
export class UserModule {}
```

#### Specific module with connection settings

```ts
@Module({
 imports: [
  NeodeModule.forFeature (
   { User: UserSchema }, 
   { host: 'bolt://localhost', port: 7689, username: 'name', password: '1234' }
 )],
     controllers: [UserController],
     providers: [UserService],
})
export class UserModule {}
```

#### User interface

Example User interface

```ts
export interface UserInterface {
     id: string;
     name: string;
     email: string;
     password: string;
     avatar: string;
     isFirstAuth: boolean;
}
```

---

#### Create user dto

Dto example if you are using rest api.
The decorator validation `@IsEmail` refer to `class-validator`

```ts
export class CreateUserDto implements Partial<UserInterface> {
     @IsNotEmpty()
     avatar!: string;

     @IsEmail()
     @IsNotEmpty()
     email!: string;

     @IsString()
     @IsNotEmpty()
     name!: string;

     @IsNotEmpty()
     @IsString()
     password!: string;
}
```

#### Service class

You can get connection by injected `Connection`. It returns a Neode instance

The word `'User'` is the same you have used to inject on `{ User: UserSchema }` if you use same different word as not `User` you must to use it.

```ts
@Injectable()
export class UserService {
     constructor(@Inject('Connection') private readonly neode: Neode) {}

     async createUser(dto: CreateUserDto): Promise<void> {
          // note that on example my interface has id and isFirstAuth attributes, and my Dto not.
          // Generate id
          const id: string = uuid();
          // Set isFirstAuth
          const isFirstAuth: boolean = true;

          await this.neode.merge('User', { ...dto, id, isFirstAuth });
     }

     async getUsers(): Promise<UserInterface[]> {
          const users = await this.neode.all('User');
          return (await users.toJson()) as UserInterface[];
     }
}
```
