MERN Stack Tutorial #4 - MongoDB Atlas & Mongoose 

Man, you are the best dev teacher, what others take 10 hours, you teach in 8 min video :D love you

I will admit I have tried before following say 7-hour mern stack tutorials but still, I was struggling with simple things. This series is different, I'm now able to digest everything and watch every piece come together. Even the basic REST CRUD operations in video #3 are so concise that I now fully got the concept. Hopefully, I will be able to code a simple to-do app using the knowledge I will acquire from this series. Thank you so much NetNinja

You just gained a subscriber man. By now I've watched a 60h udemy course and a few other courses on RU-vid, most of them around 6-10h. However, it was you who cleared my concepts properly. They did teach a lot more and dug deep into every concept and im sure that it'll only help in the long run but for someone who's beginning their journey, id certainly prefer concise to the point explanations with a very high level overview of the subject. We will learn more about it along the journey. That's why I loved your tutorial. Thank you. Sure, watching those previous videos certainly did help in grasping your code faster and so to anyone reading this comment and is a beginner like me, please watch as many videos as possible. You never know what clicks for you. This one did for me.

The course is going well and I'm finally learning the MERN the real and comprehensive way. Thanks so much my Ninja. Much love bro, you're the best.

Can't wait for the full tutorial and the Authentication tutorial too. Learning simplified 👌🏽. Thank you Netninja.

This dude is great! He literally taught me what a bootcamp tried to teach, but they confused me more, the crazy part is, he does it for FREE! I subscribed and joined his group, definitely deserves the support yall!

super excited for this series, I've been searching forever for a good MERN course and i can't believe i found you starting a new one

Had a problem with the connection DB, because my password for DB contained the symbol '@' . Do not use it!🙂 Thank you a lot for the tutorial!

I'm so glad I found this! Learning has never been this interesting and easy. Thank you so much!!!!!!!

What you have done for us it is amazing! and we really like your Mern Stack videos. Please don't stop teaching. We are looking forward to your lesson! Thanks a lot! Ninja dev

Thank u for this awesome series..love the way you explain things...plz upload 2 videos in a day if possible

You people are just doing great work.👌 Don't stop.

Thanks man,i've been having issues connecting to mongo this helped me

To those now trying out this, the Mongoose v7 allows for strict connection to db. A simple way around this is by setting mongoose.set(): mongoose.set('strictQuery',false); mongoose.connect("mongodb uri") .then(() => { ................... }) .catch(() => { ....................... } ) This helped me avoid errors. Hope this helps

Cool! I absolutely loved this tutorial!

Wow.. U posted the course just when I needed it.. Thank you very muchh...

thank you Net Ninja! -from a student from a third world country

You saved me a lot of head banging, thanks alot

you make things '' easy peasy lemon squeezy ''

Ow yes. Thanks shaun!

Great tutorial, thank you. 😊

Wow, your videos are great, keep up the great work! Quick question, how would I host something like this in the end (ideally for free)? Could I use something like Vercel, or does that not allow express? And would you you MongoDB Atlas for production, and then host everything else (frontend and express part of backend) on something else? Thanks!

You're the best, i subscribed you right away, ser

Hi Shaun … are you able to say when will you be adding the user model so we can save a workout per user I guess using the objectID ? I am really looking forward to that 🤲

Thanks sensei. PLZ consider Prisma.

Hi, I'm running through your tutorials. I'm getting the following error. Any ideas of what to do? I believe I need to change my version of one of the packages but I'm not sure where to go from there. (node:38660) [DEP0040] DeprecationWarning: The `punycode` module is deprecated. Please use a userland alternative instead. (Use `node --trace-deprecation ...` to show where the warning was created) MongoServerError: bad auth : authentication failed

Net ninja please tell vue.js vs angular what should be choosen only one between these two to learn!!

Fire!!!!!!

thanks , like always simple and clear explanation

Thanks sensei !!

Thank you !

thanks so muck ninja

All love ❤

awesome! Thank u

going so well

I would request you to do some Python, like Django or Flask or FastAPI. Would be really cool if you do Mongodb with Flask or FastAPI :)

can u tell me how to use local mongodb as well, as that is what we need to do in projects

Thanks sir i have a problem when create any name for cluster i get "this project has already another free cluster

Awesome What about nestJs

Stuck on connecting to mongodb atlas with error: queryTxt ETIMEOUT

thanks

So I'm getting this error every time I try to run your built code: MongooseError: The `uri` parameter to `openUri()` must be a string, got "undefined". Make sure the first parameter to `mongoose.connect()` or `mongoose.createConnection()` is a string. I thought it was something I did wrong in coding so I built the code on your GitHub and I still got it. I've checked my .env file multiple times and it seems to be right.

Sir I face an issue whenever I start the server, I get warning to add mongoose.set('strictQuery', true);

MongooseServerSelectionError: unable to get local issuer certificate at Connection.openUri i have this err when trying to connect to mongodb can you help me?

I am getting an error when try to connect to mongodb. When I run the server it gives etimeout error in console..my internet is fine and have installed latest version of node js but getting this etimeout error.. Kindly help..thanks

Question: Does anybody know can we use mongoDB Atlas free tier (sandbox cluster that ninja showed us) for commercial purposes? I am planning on making a startup and all I would need is save the appointment data on some cloud.

now we have many players they all throw errors to god knows where and we access to those errors by saying catch I assume there is like a global object on the background and we use its catch method. and I guess curly braces are creating a nested hierarchy to catch the error or it may be completely different I am just speculating because these are all new to me and honestly I do not like dealing with errors I dont like try catch it confuses md

Awesome video ++++++++++++++++++ 🙂

I had tio get hte 6.8.0 of mongoose to get this working

Can we see later mevn stack please ?

mongose doesnt recognize the connect method

I am note getting any errors, but the MongoDB is not getting connected and the collection is not getting created. Can anybody help??

mongonetworkerror :(

Dated on 2 February 2023 For me, I had to write "// connect to db 2 times" and also add "mongoose.set('strictQuery', false);" at the top. I don't know how it works but it works for me !! server.js File: require('dotenv').config() const express = require('express') const mongoose = require('mongoose') mongoose.set('strictQuery', false); const workoutRoutes = require('./routes/workouts') // express app const app = express() // middleware app.use(express.json()) app.use((req, res, next) => { console.log(req.path, req.method) next() }) // routes app.use('/api/workouts', workoutRoutes) // connect to db mongoose.connect(process.env.MONGO_URI) .then(() => { // listen to port app.listen(process.env.PORT, () => { console.log('listening for requests on port', process.env.PORT) }) }) .catch((err) => { console.log(err) }) mongoose.connect(process.env.MONGO_URI) .then(() => { app.listen(process.env.PORT, () => { console.log('listening for requests on port', process.env.PORT) }) }) .catch((err) => { console.log(err) })

Thanks
