I'm always connecting to the "admin" DB, which is a fixed bug.
Using Mongoose 5.0.6 MongoDb 3.6 and trying to connect to Atlas.
- My question, what driver Mongoose 5.0.6 depend on?
- How can I find out when Mongoose will have that fix?
- On a different direction, is there a way to connect with MongoDB then use this connection with
Mongoose?
Cheers
Basically you should try connecting with your url link, and specify the DB name on the mongoose connect method
so if your cluster link is:
mongodb+srv://userName:Passwrod@clustor.mongodb.net/
and your DB name is:
testDB
then you should call the mongoose.connect method as follows:
mongoose.connect('mongodb+srv://userName:Passwrod@cluster.mongodb.net/', {dbName: 'yourDbName'});
Connection is established when you use this connection string for (MongoShell 3.6+) :
var connDB = "mongodb+srv://<username>:<password>@cluster-fax0w.mongodb.net/test"
However, you will not be able to read/write data without entering the DBName in the mongoose.connect().
mongoose.connect(uri, { dbName: <your DB name> })
.then( () => {
console.log('Connection to the Atlas Cluster is successful!')
})
.catch( (err) => console.error(err));
