How can I configure postgreSQL in the Nestjs way? - javascript

So I'm in the process of learning NestJs ways. I have a small NestJs backend with only a few routes. Some of them call postgreSQL. I don't want to use any ORM and directly use pg package.
So my next step is learning how to use ConfigService. I have successfully used it to configure all env vars in the backend, but I'm struggling to use it in a small file I use to configure postgreSQL. This is the configuration file (pgconnect.ts):
import { Pool } from 'pg';
import configJson from './config/database.json';
import dotenv from 'dotenv';
dotenv.config();
const config = configJson[process.env.NODE_ENV];
const poolConfig = {
user: config.username,
host: config.host,
database: config.database,
password: config.password,
port: config.port,
max: config.maxClients
};
export const pool = new Pool(poolConfig)
database.json is a json file where I have all connect values divided by environment. Then in service classes I just:
import { Injectable } from '#nestjs/common';
import { Response } from 'express';
import { pool } from 'src/database/pgconnect';
#Injectable()
export class MyService {
getDocumentByName(res: Response, name: string) {
pool.query(
<query, error treatment, etc>
});
}
<...> more queries for insert, update, other selects, etc
}
So how could I use ConfigService inside my configuration file ? I already tried to instance class like this:
let configService = new ConfigService();
and what I would like to do is:
const config = configJson[configService.get<string>('NODE_ENV')];
but it didn't work. You have to pass .env file path to new ConfigService(). And I need to use NODE_ENV var to get it, because it depends on environment. To get NODE_ENV without using ConfigService I would have to use dotenv, but if I'm going to use dotenv I don't need ConfigService in the first place.
So then I tried to create a class:
import { Injectable, HttpException, HttpStatus } from '#nestjs/common';
import { ConfigService } from '#nestjs/config'
const { Pool } = require('pg');
import configJson from './config/database.json';
#Injectable()
export class PgPool {
constructor(private configService: ConfigService) { };
config = configJson[this.configService.get<string>('NODE_ENV')];
poolConfig = {
user: this.config.username,
host: this.config.host,
database: this.config.database,
password: this.config.password,
port: this.config.port,
max: this.config.maxClients
};
static pool = new Pool(this.poolConfig);
}
export const PgPool.pool;
But this doesn't work in several ways. If I use non-static members, I canĀ“t export pool member which is the only thing I need. If I use static members one can't access the other or at least I'm not understanding how one access the other.
So, the questions are: How do I use ConfigService outside of a class or how can I change pgconnect.ts file to do it's job ? If it's through a class the best would be to export only pool method.
Also if you think there's a better way to configure postgreSQL I would be glad to hear.

What I would do, if you're going to be using the pg package directly, is create a PgModule that exposes the Pool you create as a provider that can be injected. Then you can also create a provider for the options specifically for ease of swapping in test. Something like this:
#Module({
imports: [ConfigModule],
providers: [
{
provide: 'PG_OPTIONS',
inject: [ConfigService],
useFactory: (config) => ({
host: config.get('DB_HOST'),
port: config.get('DB_PORT'),
...etc
}),
},
{
provide: 'PG_POOL',
inject: ['PG_OPTIONS'],
useFactory: (options) => new Pool(options),
}
],
exports: ['PG_POOL'],
})
export class PgModule {}
Now, when you need to use the Pool in another service you add PgModule to that service's module's imports and you add #Inject('PG_POOL') private readonly pg: Pool to the service's constructor.
If you want to see an overly engineered solution, you can take a look at my old implementation here

I normally have my own pg module handling the pool with either an additional config file (json) or via processing a .env file:
node-pg-sql.js:
/* INFO: Require json config file */
const fileNameConfigPGSQL = require('./config/pgconfig.json');
/* INFO: Require file operations package */
const { Pool } = require('pg');
const pool = new Pool(fileNameConfigPGSQL);
module.exports = {
query: (text, params, callback) => {
const start = Date.now()
return pool.query(text, params, (err, res) => {
const duration = Date.now() - start
// console.log('executed query', { text, duration, rows: res.rowCount })
callback(err, res)
})
},
getClient: (callback) => {
pool.connect((err, client, done) => {
const query = client.query.bind(client)
// monkey patch for the query method to track last queries
client.query = () => {
client.lastQuery = arguments
client.query.apply(client, arguments)
}
// Timeout of 5 secs,then last query is logged
const timeout = setTimeout(() => {
// console.error('A client has been checked out for more than 5 seconds!')
// console.error(`The last executed query on this client was: ${client.lastQuery}`)
}, 5000)
const release = (err) => {
// calling 'done'-method to return client to pool
done(err)
// cleat timeout
clearTimeout(timeout)
// reset query-methode before the Monkey Patch
client.query = query
}
callback(err, client, done)
})
}
}
pgconfig.json:
{
"user":"postgres",
"host":"localhost",
"database":"mydb",
"password":"mypwd",
"port":"5432",
"ssl":true
}
If you prefer processing a .env file:
NODE_ENV=develepment
NODE_PORT=45500
HOST_POSTGRESQL='localhost'
PORT_POSTGRESQL='5432'
DB_POSTGRESQL='mydb'
USER_POSTGRESQL='postgres'
PWD_POSTGRESQL='mypwd'
and process the file and export vars:
var path = require('path');
const dotenvAbsolutePath = path.join(__dirname, '.env');
/* INFO: Require dotenv package for retieving and setting env-vars at runtime via absolute path due to pkg */
const dotenv = require('dotenv').config({
path: dotenvAbsolutePath
});
if (dotenv.error) {
console.log(`ERROR WHILE READING ENV-VARS:${dotenv.error}`);
throw dotenv.error;
}
module.exports = {
nodeEnv: process.env.NODE_ENV,
nodePort: process.env.NODE_PORT,
hostPostgresql: process.env.HOST_POSTGRESQL,
portPostgresql: process.env.PORT_POSTGRESQL,
dbPostgresql: process.env.DB_POSTGRESQL,
userPostgresql: process.env.USER_POSTGRESQL,
pwdPostgresql: process.env.PWD_POSTGRESQL,
};

ConnectionNotFoundError: Connection "default" was not found. Can someone help me? [duplicate]

I use TypeORM with NestJS and I am not able to save properly an entity.
The connection creation works, postgres is running on 5432 port. Credentials are OK too.
However when I need to save a resource with entity.save() I got :
Connection "default" was not found.
Error
at new ConnectionNotFoundError (/.../ConnectionNotFoundError.ts:11:22)
I checked the source file of TypeORM ConnectionManager (https://github.com/typeorm/typeorm/blob/master/src/connection/ConnectionManager.ts) but it seems that the first time TypeORM creates connection it attributes "default" name if we don't provide one, which is the case for me.
I setup TypeORM with TypeOrmModule as
TypeOrmModule.forRoot({
type: config.db.type,
host: config.db.host,
port: config.db.port,
username: config.db.user,
password: config.db.password,
database: config.db.database,
entities: [
__dirname + '/../../dtos/entities/*.entity.js',
]
})
Of course my constants are correct. Any ideas ?
You are trying to create a repository or manager without the connection being established.
Try doing this const shopkeeperRepository = getRepository(Shopkeeper); inside a function. it will work
the upvoted answer is not necessarily correct, if you not specify the connection name it will default to "default".
const manager = getConnectionManager().get('your_orm_name');
const repository = manager.getRepository<AModel>(Model);
If anyone else has this problem in the future, check this out just in case:
I accidentally did "user.save()" instead of "userRepo.save(user)".
(And of course above initializing the connection like this:
const userRepo = getConnection(process.env.NODE_ENV).getRepository(User)
We are using lerna and using code from library A in package B.
The problem was that both TypeOrm versions in each package differ.
Solution is to make sure that you have exactly the same version installed in each package.
To be on the safe side, delete your node_modules directory and reinstall everything again with yarn install or npm install
Check your yarn.lock for multiple entries of typeorm and make sure there is only one.
If anyone using Express Router with getRepository(), check the code below
const router = Router();
router.get("/", async function (req: Request, res: Response) {
// here we will have logic to return all users
const userRepository = getRepository(User);
const users = await userRepository.find();
res.json(users);
});
router.get("/:id", async function (req: Request, res: Response) {
// here we will have logic to return user by id
const userRepository = getRepository(User);
const results = await userRepository.findOne(req.params.id);
return res.send(results);
});
Just make sure to call getRepository() in every route just like Saras Arya said in the accepted answer.
I follow the below approach creating the Database class. If the connection doesn't exist then it creates the connection else return the existing connection.
import { Connection, ConnectionManager, ConnectionOptions, createConnection, getConnectionManager } from 'typeorm';
export class Database {
private connectionManager: ConnectionManager;
constructor() {
this.connectionManager = getConnectionManager();
}
public async getConnection(name: string): Promise<Connection> {
const CONNECTION_NAME: string = name;
let connection: Connection;
const hasConnection = this.connectionManager.has(CONNECTION_NAME);
if (hasConnection) {
connection = this.connectionManager.get(CONNECTION_NAME);
if (!connection.isConnected) {
connection = await connection.connect();
}
} else {
const connectionOptions: ConnectionOptions = {
name: 'default',
type: 'mysql',
host: 'localhost',
port: 3306,
username: 'root',
password: 'password',
database: 'DemoDb',
synchronize: false,
logging: true,
entities: ['src/entities/**/*.js'],
migrations: ['src/migration/**/*.js'],
subscribers: ['src/subscriber/**/*.js'],
};
connection = await createConnection(connectionOptions);
}
return connection;
}
}
If you are using webpack the make sure entities are imported specifically & returned in array.
import {User} from 'src/entities/User.ts';
import {Album} from 'src/entities/Album.ts';
import {Photos} from 'src/entities/Photos.ts';
const connectionOptions: ConnectionOptions = {
name: 'default',
type: 'mysql',
host: 'localhost',
port: 3306,
username: 'root',
password: 'password',
database: 'DemoDb',
synchronize: false,
logging: true,
entities: [User, Album, Photos],
migrations: ['src/migration/**/*.js'],
subscribers: ['src/subscriber/**/*.js'],
};
Finally
const connectionName = 'default';
const database = new Database();
const dbConn: Connection = await database.getConnection(connectionName);
const MspRepository = dbConn.getRepository(Msp);
await MspRepository.delete(mspId);
For those of you looking for another answer, check this out.
In my case, the issue was because I was passing name in my db config.
export const dbConfig = {
name: 'myDB',
...
}
await createConnection(dbConfig) // like this
As a result, the only connection server knows is myDB not default.
At the same time, in my service, repository was injected without name which will fallback to default. (Service will looking for default connection as a result)
#Service() // typedi
export class Service {
constructor(
// inject without name -> fallback to default
#InjectRepository() private readonly repository
) {}
}
As a fix, I removed name property in my db config.
Or you can pass myDB as a parameter for InjectRepository like #InjectRepository('myDB'), either way works.
In my own case, the actual problem was that my index file imports my router file which imports my controllers which then import my services (where the call to getRepository was made). So the imports were resolving (and thus the call to getRepository) before the connection was established.
I considered implementing Sarya's answer but it's going to leave my code more verbose.
What I did was create a function to connect to the DB in a db/index.ts file
import { createConnection } from "typeorm";
export const getDBConnection = async () => {
const dbConnection = await createConnection();
if (!dbConnection.isConnected) await dbConnection.connect();
return dbConnection;
}
Then create an async function to bootstrap my app. I wait on getDBConnection to resolve before instantiating my app then I import my router file after. That way the import resolution only happens after the connection has been established.
routers/index.ts
import { Router } from 'express';
const router = Router();
/* ... route configurations ... */
export default router;
app.ts
const bootstrap = async () => {
try {
// wait on connection to be established
await getDBConnection();
} catch (error) {
// log error then throw
throw error;
}
// create app
const app = express();
// some middleware configuration...
// now import and setup the router
const { default: router } = await import("./routers");
app.use("/api", router);
// some more middleware configuration...
const server = http.createServer(app);
server.listen(3000, () => console.log('app running at port: 3000'));
};
bootstrap();
I got this error while using getConnectionOptions for different environments. Using one database for development and another for testing. This is how I fixed it:
const connectionOptions = await getConnectionOptions(process.env.NODE_ENV);
await createConnection({...connectionOptions, name:"default"});
I usegetConnectionOptions to get the connection for the current environment, in order to do that successfully you have to change ormconfig.json to an array, with keys "name" containing the different environments you want, like so:
[
{
"name" : "development",
"type": "USER",
"host": "localhost",
"port": 5432,
"username": "postgres",
"password": "PASS",
"database": "YOURDB"
},
{
"name" : "test",
"type": "USERTEST",
"host": "localhost",
"port": 5432,
"username": "postgres",
"password": "PASSTEST",
"database": "YOURDBTEST"
}
]
Now connectionOptions will contain the connection parameters of the current environment, but loading it to createConnection threw the error you pointed. Changing connectionOptions name to "default" fixed the issue.
I know it is super weird but someone might need this:
Windows related reason.
I had the same error caused by the current location set with the drive letter in the lower case (d:/apps/app-name/etc).
The problem got fixed once I updated the directory change instruction to use capital D (D:/apps/app-name/etc).
After verifying TypeOrm versions is same in both the packages i.e- external package and consumer repository as mentioned by #InsOp still issue persist then issue could be-
Basically when we create an external package - TypeORM tries to get the "default" connection option, but If not found then throws an error:
ConnectionNotFoundError: Connection "default" was not found.
We can solve this issue by doing some kind of sanity check before establishing a connection - luckily we have .has() method on getConnectionManager().
import { Connection, getConnectionManager, getConnectionOptions,
createConnection, getConnection, QueryRunner } from 'typeorm';
async init() {
let connection: Connection;
let queryRunner: QueryRunner;
if (!getConnectionManager().has('default')) {
const connectionOptions = await getConnectionOptions();
connection = await createConnection(connectionOptions);
} else {
connection = getConnection();
}
queryRunner = connection.createQueryRunner();
}
Above is a quick code-snippet which was the actual root cause for this issue but If you are interested to see complete working repositories (different examples) -
External NPM Package :
Git Repo : git-unit-of-work (specific file- src/providers/typeorm/typeorm-uow.ts)
Published in NPM : npm-unit-of-work
Consumer of above package : nest-typeorm-postgre (specific files- package.json, src/countries/countries.service.ts & countries.module.ts)
In my case was that I have an array of multiple connections, instead of just one. You have 2 alternatives.
To have at least one default named connection, example:
createConnections([
{
name: 'default',
type: 'mysql',
host: 'localhost',
port: 3306,
username: 'root',
password: 'root',
database: 'users',
entities: [`${__dirname}/entity/*{.js,.ts}`],
synchronize: true,
logging: true
}
]);
To be specific when using the connection:
import {getConnection} from "typeorm";
const db1Connection = getConnection("db1Connection");
// you can work with "db1" database now...
I had this same problem with the following code:
import { HttpException, Inject, NotFoundException } from "#nestjs/common";
import { Not } from "typeorm";
import { Transactional } from "typeorm-transactional-cls-hooked";
import { TENANT_CONNECTION } from "../tenant/tenant.module";
import {Feriados} from './feriados.entity';
export class FeriadosService {
repository: any;
constructor(
#Inject(TENANT_CONNECTION) private connection)
{
this.repository = connection.getRepository(Feriados)
}
#Transactional()
async agregar(tablaNueva: Feriados): Promise<Number> {
const tablaAGuardar = await this.repository.create(tablaNueva)
return await this.guardar(tablaAGuardar)
}
#Transactional()
async actualizar(tablaActualizada: Feriados): Promise<Number>{
const tablaAGuardar = await this.repository.merge(tablaActualizada);
return await this.guardar(tablaAGuardar)
}
async guardar(tabla:Feriados){
await this.repository.save(tabla)
return tabla.id
}
I fixed it by removing the 2 #Transactional()
I hope someone helps.
In typeorm v0.3 the Connection API was replaced by the DataSource API. NestJS adapted this change as well, so if you relied on the old API (e.g. getConnection method) you might see the Connection "default" was not found error.
You can read about the changes and the new API in the release notes: https://github.com/typeorm/typeorm/releases/tag/0.3.0
If you used getConnection you can use app.get(DataSource) instead.
In the new version of Typeorm, 0.3.7, a solution to this problem is next:
In the app.module.ts, change the constructor of the AppModule class and create a method to return Datasource:
export class AppModule {
constructor(private dataSource: DataSource) {}
getDataSource() {
return this.dataSource;
}
}
Then, in the file you need to use add:
const repository = app
.get(AppModule)
.getDataSource()
.getRepository('Entity_name');
Although Saras Arya has provided the correct answer, I have encountered the same error
ConnectionNotFoundError: Connection "default" was not found.
due to the fact that my typeORM entity did have an #Entity() decorator as well as that it had extended BaseEntity.
The two can't live together.

Next.js middleware Module not found: Can't resolve 'fs'

Getting this error in Next.js _middleware file when I try to initialize Firebase admin V9. Anyone know how to solve this issue?
./node_modules/#google-cloud/storage/build/src/bucket.js:22:0
Module not found: Can't resolve 'fs'
../../firebase/auth-admin
import * as admin from "firebase-admin";
if (!admin.apps.length) {
admin.initializeApp({
credential: admin.credential.cert({
projectId: process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_FIREBASE_PROJECT_ID,
clientEmail: process.env.FIREBASE_CLIENT_EMAIL,
privateKey: process.env.FIREBASE_ADMIN_PRIVATE_KEY,
}),
});
}
const firestore = admin.firestore();
const auth = admin.auth();
export { firestore, auth };
Calling it in my _middleware
import { NextFetchEvent, NextRequest, NextResponse } from "next/server";
import { auth } from "../../firebase/auth-admin";
export default async function authenticate(
req: NextRequest,
ev: NextFetchEvent
) {
const token = req.headers.get("token");
console.log("auth = ", auth);
// const decodeToken = await auth.verifyIdToken(token);
return NextResponse.next();
}
I saw a solution here by customizing webpack but this does not fix it.
/** #type {import('next').NextConfig} */
const nextConfig = {
reactStrictMode: true,
webpack: (config, { isServer, node }) => {
node = {
...node,
fs: "empty",
child_process: "empty",
net: "empty",
tls: "empty",
};
return config;
},
};
module.exports = nextConfig;
The Edge Runtime, which is used by Next.js Middleware, does not support Node.js native APIs.
From the Edge Runtime documentation:
The Edge Runtime has some restrictions including:
Native Node.js APIs are not supported. For example, you can't read or write to the filesystem
Node Modules can be used, as long as they implement ES Modules and do not use any native Node.js APIs
You can't use Node.js libraries that use fs in Next.js Middleware. Try using a client-side library instead.
I wasted a lot of time tying to get this to work. The weird thing is that this will work in the api itself.
So instead of calling firebase-admin action in the _middleware file. Call it in the api itself like:
import type { NextApiRequest, NextApiResponse } from 'next'
import { auth } from "../../firebase/auth-admin";
export default async function handler(req: NextApiRequest, res: NextApiResponse) {
const authorization = req.headers.authorization
console.log(`Handler auth header: ${authorization}`)
if (!authorization) {
return res.status(401).json({ message: 'Authorisation header not found.' })
}
const token = authorization.split(' ')[1]
if (!token) {
return res.status(401).json({ message: 'Bearer token not found.' })
}
console.log(`Token: ${token}`)
try {
const {uid} = await auth.verifyIdToken("sd" + token)
console.log(`User uid: ${uid}`)
res.status(200).json({ userId: uid })
} catch (error) {
console.log(`verifyIdToken error: ${error}`)
res.status(401).json({ message: `Error while verifying token. Error: ${error}` })
}
}
A workaround to make this reusable is to create a wrapper function.
If anyone knows how to make this work in a _middleware file, I would be really grateful.
Edit: Gist for the wrapper middleware function:
https://gist.github.com/jvgrootveld/ed1863f0beddc1cc2bf2d3593dedb6da
make sure you're not calling firebase-admin in the client
import * as admin from "firebase-admin";
I've recently released a library that aims to solve the problem: https://github.com/ensite-in/next-firebase-auth-edge
It allows to create and verify tokens inside Next.js middleware and Next.js 13 server components. Built entirely upon Web Crypto API.
Please note it does rely on Next.js ^13.0.5 experimental "appDir" and "allowMiddlewareResponseBody" features.

How can I localize routes with the nextJs and next-i18next like an URL alias?

I'm using NextJs 10.0.5 with next-i18next 8.1.0 to localize my application. As we all know nextJs 10 has subpath routing for internationalized routing. In addition, I need to change the page names by language. For example, I have a contact-us file inside the pages folder. When I change the language to Turkish, I have to use localhost:3000/tr/contact-us. However, I want to use localhost:3000/bize-ulasin to access the contact-us page when the language is Turkish. So there are two URLs and only one page file.
It works when I use custom routing with express js in the server.js file. However, when I want to access the "locale" variable within the getStaticProps function in the contact-us file, I cannot access it. The getStaticProps function returns undefined for "locale" variable when I use localhost:3000/bize-ulasin URL.
server.js
const { createServer } = require("http");
const { parse } = require("url");
const next = require("next");
const app = next({ dev: process.env.NODE_ENV !== "production" });
const handle = app.getRequestHandler(app);
app.prepare().then(() => {
createServer((req, res) => {
const parsedUrl = parse(req.url, true);
const { pathname, query } = parsedUrl;
if (pathname === "/bize-ulasin") {
app.render(req, res, "/contact-us", query);
}else{
handle(req, res, parsedUrl);
}
}).listen(3000, (err) => {
if (err) throw err;
console.log("> Ready on http://localhost:3000");
});
});
/pages/contact-us-file
import { Fragment } from "react";
import Head from "next/head";
import { useTranslation } from "next-i18next";
import { serverSideTranslations } from "next-i18next/serverSideTranslations";
const ContactUs = () => {
const { t } = useTranslation("common");
return (
<Fragment>
<Head>
<title>Contact-Us</title>
</Head>
</Fragment>
);
};
export const getStaticProps = async ({ locale }) => {
console.log(locale); // When I use the URL localhost: 3000/bize-ulasin, it returns undefined.
return {
props: {
...(await serverSideTranslations(locale, ["common"])),
},
};
};
export default ContactUs;
How can I access the "locale" variable with getStaticProps? Or, how can I use the following URLs with the same page file?
->localhost:3000/contact-us
->localhost:3000/bize-ulasin
I also faced the same problem today. That's how I solved the issue.
First of all, delete the server.js file. With Next.JS 10, using server.js will create conflict with the i18n routes and you won't be able to get the locale data in getStaticProps.
NextJS has a beautiful method named rewrites. We will use that instead of our server.js file. For example, if you have a page named contact-us-file, we can rewrite our next.config.js file as
const { i18n } = require('./next-i18next.config')
module.exports = {
i18n,
async rewrites() {
return [
{
source: '/contact-us',
destination: '/en/contact-us-file',
},
{
source: '/bize-ulasin',
destination: '/tr/contact-us-file',
},
]
},
}
As you are already using Next-i18next, I hope you are familiar with the file that I am importing.
Now If you try to navigate localhost:3000/contact-us and localhost:3000/bize-ulasin you should be able to access your contact us page.

How to export the instance of the class which is imported dynamically with ES6 module in NodeJS?

I'm reading the book introducing NodeJS with a simple web application example. The requirement in the example is that there are several data store classes in its own module, and we need to adopt the data store dynamically by setting environment variable. The code snippets of the example is something like following:
// memory-store.mjs
// The data store for storing data in memory
export default class MemoryStore {
// Some CRUD operation
}
// fs-store.mjs
// The data store for storing data into file system
export default class FSStore {
// Some CRUD operation
}
// store.mjs
// Provide a async function to import data store dynamically and
// set the instance to variable store, which is exported
let store;
async function load() {
try {
const moduleName = process.env.MODULE_NAME ?? 'memory';
const storeModule = await import(`./${moduleName}-store.mjs`);
const storeClass = storeModule.default;
store = new storeClass();
return store;
} catch(err) {
throw new Error('Something goes wrong...');
}
}
export { load, store };
// app.mjs
// Import the function to load the data store dynamically and
// the exported store for fetching data list
import express from 'express';
import { load, store } from './store.mjs';
const app = express();
load()
.then(store => {})
.catch(err => console.error(`Exception with error: ${err}`));
app.use('/', (req, res, next) => {
const dataList = store.retrieveAll();
res.send(dataList);
});
The code snippets above is not same as the one in the book overall. But the concept is same. It works fine in my local environment, but I'm wondering isn't there any problem if the request is coming and handled before the data store is imported due that the import function is async operation? Are there other solutions which can fulfill the requirement? Or I'm just missing something that the example from the book is just masterpiece? Thanks in advance!
If you want to guarantee that store has been initialized before any requests are handled by your express app, you could set up the express listener after the load promise has resolved. This would be as simple as the following:
import express from 'express';
import { load, store } from './store.mjs';
const app = express();
app.use('/', (req, res, next) => {
const dataList = store.retrieveAll();
res.send(dataList);
});
load()
.then(() => {
app.listen(port, () => {
console.log(`Example app listening at http://localhost:${port}`);

Unable to insert to the MongoDB instance from different files in a single project

I have made a basic skeleton of a typescript project here: https://github.com/xameeramir/instruments-admin
The mongoose connection is made from the index.ts file:
require('dotenv').config();
import express from "express";
const app = express();
const port = 8080; // default port to listen
import routes from "./routes";
import { connectToTheDatabase } from './mongooseUtility';
// define a route handler for the default home page
app.get("/status", (req, res) => {
res.send("Instruments admin functionalities available!");
});
connectToTheDatabase();
app.use(routes);
// start the Express server
app.listen(port, () => {
console.log(`Instruments admin functionalities available at PORT ${port}`);
});
In the all-tradeables.controller.ts, I'm calling InstrumentModel.insertMany.
Now, for some unknown reasons, the insertion is not happening. When I go to the MongoDB instance, I don't see any document inserted.
I have looked around the internet and I don't see any mistake in the code. Can someone please help me understand why the insertion is not working?
Problem was you were returning model without mongo instance.
Solution goes here:
replace all-tradeables.model.ts content with the following:
// import * as mongoose from 'mongoose';
import { Schema, Model, model } from 'mongoose';
const mongooseInstance = require("mongoose");
let connString = 'mongodb://localhost:27017/dbnamegoeshere';
mongooseInstance.connect(connString, {useNewUrlParser: true});
// define Schema
let InstrumentSchema = new Schema({
instrument_token: Number,
exchange_token: Number,
tradingsymbol: String,
name: String,
last_price: Number,
expiry: Date,
strike: Number,
tick_size: Number,
lot_size: Number,
instrument_type: String,
segment: String,
exchange: String
});
// compile schema to model
export const InstrumentModel = mongooseInstance.model('Instrument', InstrumentSchema);
export const storeAllInstruments = (InstrumentsData: any) => {
// return (() => {
return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
})
// })();
}
