I want to modify the validation of my collection using collmod command. but when I call the runCommand() function it gives me error runCommand is not a function. I am trying to connect using nodejs driver

const uri = "mongodb://localhost:27017";
const client = new MongoClient(uri);
client.db('E-commerce').runCommand({collmod:'category',categorySchema})

Try `client.getSiblingDB('E-commerce').runCommand` – Wernfried Domscheit Jan 25 '22 at 11:51
I have tried using getSiblingDB but it shows getSiblingDb is not a function – kanz Jan 26 '22 at 12:17
`getSiblingDB` or `getSiblingDb`? Perhaps `client.db.getSiblingDB('E-commerce').runCommand` – Wernfried Domscheit Jan 26 '22 at 15:03
nope it is also not working. Same error. I have created using createCollection instead of using collmod. I thing this works for only mongosh – kanz Jan 27 '22 at 16:13
