 * **fieldName** (required): name of the field to index. Use the dot notation to index a field in a nested document.
 * **unique** (optional, defaults to `false`): enforce field uniqueness. Note that a unique index will raise an error if you try to index two documents for which the field is not defined.
 * **sparse** (optional, defaults to `false`): don't index documents for which the field is not defined. Use this option along with "unique" if you want to accept multiple documents for which it is not defined.
+* **expireAfterSeconds** (number of seconds, optional): if set, the created index is a TTL (time to live) index, that will automatically remove documents when the system date becomes larger than the date on the indexed field plus `expireAfterSeconds`
 
 Note: the `_id` is automatically indexed with a unique constraint, no need to call `ensureIndex` on it.

 **Note:** the `ensureIndex` function creates the index synchronously, so it's best to use it at application startup. It's quite fast so it doesn't increase startup time much (35 ms for a collection containing 10,000 documents).
