.decrypt()

Decrypt any auto-encrypted attributes in the records returned for this particular query.

usage
query.decrypt()

Usage

This method doesn't accept any arguments.

Example

To retrieve user records with ssn decrypted:

javascript
await User.find({fullName: 'Finn Mertens'}).decrypt();
// =>
// [ { id: 4, fullName: 'Finn Mertens', ssn: '555-55-5555' } ]

If the records were retrieved without .decrypt(), you would get:

javascript
await User.find({fullName: 'Finn Mertens'});
// =>
// [ { id: 4, fullName: 'Finn Mertens', ssn: 'YWVzLTI1Ni1nY20kJGRlZmF1bHQ=$F4Du3CAHtmUNk1pn$hMBezK3lwJ2BhOjZ$6as+eXnJDfBS54XVJgmPsg' } ]
