require("mongojs").connect is undefined

Question

I just started to learn mongodb. I tried the following code in my app.js

var databaseUrl = "localhost:27017/pixelmargin"; // "username:password@example.com/mydb"
var collections = ["pages"]
var mongojs = require("mongojs");
var db = mongojs.connect(databaseUrl)

But I get the following error:

Uncaught TypeError: undefined is not a function ' error occurs on line 'var db = mongojs.connect(databaseUrl)

Answer 1

According to the documentation there is no .connect()

You select the db via the following:

var mongojs = require("mongojs");
var db = mongojs("dbname");

Answer 2

That works for me :

var db = require('mongojs').connect('localhost:27017/dbName');
