Mongoose virtual fields included in toJSON by default: schemaOptions.toJSON.virtuals = true; still doesn't include virtual fields by default

I saw in another answer that in order to include the virtual fields you must do like https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/mongoose-orm/HjrPAP_WXYs

var schemaOptions = {
  toJSON: {
    virtuals: true
  }
};

which I've done;

Now in the Schema:

 new Schema({...}, schemaOptions);

But still so, the data doesn't include the virtual.. :s

But like this works:

var docsCallback = function(err, docs){
    var i = docs.length;
    var nDocs = [];
    while(i--){
        nDocs[i] = docs[i].toObject({virtuals: true});
    }
    done(nDocs);
}

For me it worked only after adding getters: true to schema options, as mentioned in mongoose docs, i.e.

var schemaOptions = {
  toObject: {
    getters: true
  },
  toJSON: {
    getters: true
  }
};
