Setting Up Mongoose
To begin, let’s set up a basic Node.js application that connects to a MongoDB database using Mongoose.
1. Create a Node.js Project
Initialize a new Node.js project and install Mongoose as shown above.
2. Create a Connection to MongoDB
const mongoose = require("mongoose");
const url = 'mongodb+srv://Abdullah:Abdullah123@cluster0.ihx3lfc.mongodb.net/node?retryWrites=true&w=majority'
mongoose.connect(url)
.then((result) => {
console.log('connected to Mongodb');
}).catch((err) => {
console.error(err);
});
module.exports = mongoose;
Note:Replace ‘mongodb://localhost:27017/mydatabase‘ with the connection URL to your MongoDB database.
