Running a pure Mongo command within Node/Express/Mongoose?

How do I run the following command within my Node application?

db.users.update(
    { "username": "steve" },
    {  $push: 
        { 
            likes: [ { "user_id": "3" } ]
        } 
    } 
)

I have a schema setup via Mongoose but I'm not sure if it's possible to run this raw Mongo command.

Updating docs using Mongoose should help you. The following should help you update docs using mongoose:

Model.update(
    {"username":"steve"},
    {$push: {
            likes: [ { "user_id": "3" } ]
        }
    },
    //if you have any options mention here(options),
    //A callback comes here (optional)
)

Here is the syntax of update command using Mongoose for your reference:

var conditions = { name: 'borne' }
  , update = { $inc: { visits: 1 }}
  , options = { multi: true };

Model.update(conditions, update, options, callback);

function callback (err, numAffected) {
  // numAffected is the number of updated documents
})
