Connect to Mlab with mongoose

Question

Hi i'm trying to make a simple connection

mongoose.connect('mongodb://JFalcon:john2522@ds119476.mlab.com:19476/hidonshabat', {useMongoClient: true}, function(err){
    if(err) {
        console.log('Some problem with the connection ' +err);
    } else {
        console.log('The Mongoose connection is ready');
    }
})

As you can see this is the url! Please help me

So, what is the problem? Also, when you post questions like this remember to remove your password from the connection string ie `john2522` in this case :D. — Pramesh Bajracharya, Nov 23 '17 at 13:10

Please correct as follows

mongoose.connect('mongodb://<dbuser>:<dbpassword>@ds119476.mlab.com:19476/hidonshabat', 
    {useNewUrlParser: true },function(err)=>{
    {
        if(err) {
            console.log('Some problem with the connection ' +err);
        } else {
            console.log('The Mongoose connection is ready');

mongoose.connect('mongodb://localhost:27017/myapp', **{useNewUrlParser: true}**);

From official docs:

useNewUrlParser - The underlying MongoDB driver has deprecated their current connection string parser. Because this is a major change, they added the useNewUrlParser flag to allow users to fall back to the old parser if they find a bug in the new parser. You should set useNewUrlParser: true unless that prevents you from connecting. Note that if you specify useNewUrlParser: true, you must specify a port in your connection string, like mongodb://localhost:27017/dbname. The new url parser does not support connection strings that do not have a port, like mongodb://localhost/dbname.

var Mongoose=require("mongoose");
var dbURI='mongodb://JFalcon:john2522@ds119476.mlab.com:19476/hidonshabat';
Mangoose.connect(dbURI,function(err){    
    if(err){
    console.log('Some problem with the connection ' +err)   
    } 
    else {
    console.log('The Mongoose connection is ready')  
    }

})
module.exports={Mongoose};
