How to Connect Node.js App to MongoDB | Node.js & MongoDB Tutorial

Hey guys, welcome back! In this video, I will be showing you how you can connect your Node.js application to MongoDB. I'll be walking you through signing up, creating a cluster, and connecting your application to the cluster.
If you don't know what MongoDB is, MongoDB is a document-oriented database that stores data in JSON-like documents with dynamic schemas. It is most commonly used in the back-end for web applications and is the leading NoSQL database and can be used in many different ways, from a simple key-value store to a complex full-text search engine.
If you don't know what Node.js is, Node.js is a platform built on Chrome's JavaScript runtime for easily building fast, scalable network applications. Node.js uses an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model that makes it lightweight and efficient, perfect for data-intensive real-time applications that run across distributed devices.

[@himo5666]

Would it be any different if you installed mongodb locally on your computer and used it as an application rather than through the website (cloud)?

While connecting to cluster why can't I see myFirstDatabase option in the connection string?

[@ArpanNeupaneProductions]

Do you mean the connection string in the video or the connecting string that's shown on the webpage?

[@Xxxsorrow]

Yeah it's different for me, too. There is no database name in my string when I copy it from the website.

[@ArpanNeupaneProductions]

@@Xxxsorrow What is the name that you chose for the database?

[@loyal_believers8707]

how can we develop a log in registration form and authenticate it ?

[@ArpanNeupaneProductions]

If you're using Node and another frontend library (React, Angular, etc), you can use JWT authentication. If you're just using Node and HTML, you can use sessions.

[@johnrhunor4383]

if you get the DeprecationWarning that means you're working in the latest mongodbversion like me so what you do is in the line inside the async function async function connect(){ try{ mongoose.set('strictQuery', true); await mongoose.connect(uri); // await mongoose.connect(uri); console.log("connected to mongoDB"); }catch(error){ console.error(error); } } connect();
