#### Usage

If you execute the bellow code, it will create a new register "Michael Jordan 23" into your mongo database

`
const findOrCreate = require("findorcreate_mongoose5.x")
var instance = new mongoose()

const schema = instance.Schema({
name: String,
surname: String,
number: Number
});

schema.statics.findOrCreate = findOrCreate

var yourModel = instance.model('findOrCreate', schema);

yourModel.findOrCreate({name: 'Michael', surname: 'Jordan'}, {name: 'Michael', surname: 'Jordan', number: 23})
.then((record) => {
console.log(record.document, record.created);
})
.catch(error) => {
console.error(error);
});
`

If you execute again the code with other values, for example:

`
yourModel.findOrCreate({name: 'Michael', surname: 'Jordan'}, {name: 'Michael', surname: 'Jordan', number: 00})
`

This will return "Michael Jordan 23" again because it already exists. Great!

You can use async/await too

`
try{
let record = await yourModel.findOrCreate({name: 'Michael', surname: 'Jordan'}, {name: 'Michael', surname: 'Jordan', number: 23})
console.log(record.document, record.created);
}
catch(error){
console.error(error);
}
