What is the best way to organize logging of data changes with saving to the database in Sails.js?

Question

MongoDB

Hello!

Example:

We make a change to the Client model.
When saving the model, the beforeUpdate() and afterUdate() hooks are available to us .

We also have a Log model, in which we need to write down what and by whom has changed at the moment, the old and new values.



My solution:

In beforeUpdate() we get the new values ​​and make a request to get the old data. Compare what has changed and create a change record.

But I feel it really badly :)

What is the best way to organize such logging?
