finally, i am so happy because im about to deploy my first express app yey!
i choose heroku and already follow step by step guidance to deploy nodejs application but none of those steps shows me how to import database because at this moment i am coding my express app in my laptop with mongodb installed, i expect in heroku there is mongodb then i can import my mongodb data to it as i do it in PHP + mysql. i have read some articles on google but still confuse.
to sum up my question :
Where should i store my documents on mongodb when deploy ?
Please give us some recommended tips to deploy express app with mongodb.
Thank you.
For importing database ,you have to use mlab (mLab's MongoDB hosting platform is the fastest growing cloud Database-as-a-Service in the world).
https://mlab.com/ , just change the address in your app from local db to mlab db.

I'd like to know how to implement MongoDB to Angular 9 for Inserting, Deleting and updating data. I heard it can be done using Node JS.
I need some sample code for an academic project.
This link is a great step towards learning NodeJS express and Mongo DB connection with CRUD operations.
The author has mentioned step by step procedure for DB operation with Node.
And to combine it with Angular, you can create something to call CRUD APIs of your Node application which will handle the DB connection.
I have a fundamental question about Reactjs and Mongodb. I want to build a react app which has a "search" feature that shows results from the database. However, I have an issue on understanding how to implement the connection between the react app and the database.
Sorry for the general question. Every help or hint on how to proceed will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
React is completely back-end agnostic. Which means you would have to implement the connection yourself.
The regular way is, you setup MongoDB and a Node.js server (or whatever back-end you like) then you connect the Node.js server to MongoDB (via MongoDBs JavaScript SDK) and your React client, which runs in the browser to your Node.js server (via HTTP, express framework could help here).
Browser -> Node.js -> MongoDB.
But MongoDB also has a REST interface you could use directly via the browser, like it's mentioned in the following answer:

Would probably be okay for small proof of concepts or experiements,.
Today i started migrating from firebase to mongoDB,
I used this tutorial and its all up and running http://thejackalofjavascript.com/re-architecting-a-firebase-app-in-node/
When checking the code i see there is a mongolab link connected to the code,
mongodb://admin:admin123#ds061620.mongolab.com:61620/testsync
My question is: can i easily setup my own local database to use instead of this? and what packages i would need to do this?
The main reason for switching to mongo instead of firebase is the pricing, please take this into account.
Yes, of course you can.
First, install mongodb locally, to do that, follow the instructions for the distribution you're working on.
Then, make sure your mongodb service is running.
After that, on your database connection script, change the connection parameters.
I guess that you have something like this on your .js file:
mongodb://admin:admin123#ds061620.mongolab.com:61620/testsync
Just to make a connection test, try to change it to:
mongo://localhost/test
After a successful connection, you can start to manage your database as you want.
As additional information, you don't have to specify user, password and a different port than the mongo's default, because you're using your local configuration, if you want to do so, you have to configure your mongodb server to make it work that way.
I'm working with mongoose ORM to manage a local database, and here's my connection function working.
Mongoose connection to local database
Hope this helps you.
I know this is kind of trivial, but I have been searching on google for a solution to this problem, this here is my first time deploying a mongodb+node.js application, I have succeeded in hosting a node.js application with static data, I have changed it to use a database -mongodb, I have created a mongodb database on mongolab.com,
I have tried connecting but I keep getting this error
Database error
Error details: Error: failed to connect to [subdomain.mongolab.com:10027]
I have been searching over google, did not get a solution, have also contacted the site admin, my database connection and the entire code to fetch from mongodb remotely is
here on github , thanks
I just finished a REST server application in nodejs using express, passport and mongodb
I want to create a meteor app for the LIVE Statistics of that mongodb REST api's , like number of connections, user online etc.
But I can't figure out a way to use custom mongodb with meteor. Basically I want to share the same database with nodejs/express application and meteor.
Is it possible? I am sure it should be, but I can't figure out HOW!
Help please!
Okay, I got here what to do.
While deploying meteor, they have an option to choose the database.
So i created an app on meteor and then deployed it for nodejs
here is how,
meteor bundle myapp.tgz
extracted myapp.tgz and used the command below.
PORT=3000 MONGO_URL=mongodb://localhost:27017/myapp node bundle/main.js
Here is complete doc : http://docs.meteor.com/#deploying
