# --description--
|
||
|
||
In this challenge, you will import the required projects, and connect to your Atlas database.
|
||
|
||
# --instructions--
|
||
|
||
Add `mongodb` and `mongoose` to the project’s `package.json`. Then, require mongoose as `mongoose` in `myApp.js`. Store your MongoDB Atlas database URI in a private `.env` file as `MONGO_URI`. Surround the the URI with single or double quotes, and make sure no space exists between both the variable and the `=`, and the value and `=`. Connect to the database using the following syntax:
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
mongoose.connect(<Your URI>, { useNewUrlParser: true, useUnifiedTopology: true });
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
# --hints--
|
||
|
||
"mongodb" dependency should be in package.json
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
(getUserInput) =>
|
||
$.get(getUserInput('url') + '/_api/file/package.json').then(
|
||
(data) => {
|
||
var packJson = JSON.parse(data);
|
||
assert.property(packJson.dependencies, 'mongodb');
|
||
},
|
||
(xhr) => {
|
||
throw new Error(xhr.responseText);
|
||
}
|
||
);
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
"mongoose" dependency should be in package.json
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
(getUserInput) =>
|
||
$.get(getUserInput('url') + '/_api/file/package.json').then(
|
||
(data) => {
|
||
var packJson = JSON.parse(data);
|
||
assert.property(packJson.dependencies, 'mongoose');
|
||
},
|
||
(xhr) => {
|
||
throw new Error(xhr.responseText);
|
||
}
|
||
);
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
"mongoose" should be connected to a database
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
(getUserInput) =>
|
||
$.get(getUserInput('url') + '/_api/is-mongoose-ok').then(
|
||
(data) => {
|
||
assert.isTrue(data.isMongooseOk, 'mongoose is not connected');
|
||
},
|
||
(xhr) => {
|
||
throw new Error(xhr.responseText);
|
||
}
|
||
);
|
||
```
