We are going to cover how to create a restful api using node.js express and mongodb together with mongoose.
Rest apis help us decouple our backend code from our front end so we can use it across multiple application (mobile apps, web apps, etc).
We are going to learn how to build a simple blog post type api with all the useful methods(GET,POST,DELETE,PATCH).
We use Node.js as our backend language, express.js is going to help us create routes easier and middlewares and we use mongodb together with mongoose to create schemas and models that define how our data looks.
If you are a beginner with nodejs, express or mongodb I hope that this tutorial will give you a good idea of how these technologies work well together.

For people visiting this tutorial recently, some important things to note:
1. MLAB is not in function anymore you have to use mongodb atlas.
2. the cluster by default will not allow write access so you have to set it up in settings.
3. At 44:00, remove function is deprecated so you have to use deleteOne function
Can you tell where we have to change the access exactly?
thank you so much! I was like wtf is going on? ahahahaha thanks a lot
Also id recommend using express.json() as a middleware instead of using body parser, since its built in
I loved your teaching style 😍😍.. Keep it up.. It helps us a lot
@Nikolas Ryker i have another scammers thanks alot
Please don't stop with this tutorials!! Super awesome for beginners like me.
Good luck friend, although I do not think that this specific tutorial is for beginners because if you already know about these techs then you're not a beginner anymore :)
I’m a student studying CS at Ball State University, IN. I am not someone who would comment on a video on youtube because she likes it. This is legit the first time ONLY to tell you that nobody explains it better. All your videos, be it explaining hooks in React, cool animations or CSS, or this tutorial - they are all explained so well! Thank you for your content.
Finally 1080p jesus...
@Jack Rong Nop , I don't think we need that
Nice videos.
Kindly, do a video on MERN
When you init npm add flag -y for standart settings ( npm init -y )
awesome thanks you ed
Just a quick question can we read data from already existing collection in mongo without creating schema?
Since Express 4.16.0, bodyParser is built-in.
```
const express = require("express");
const app = express();
app.use(express.json());
app.use(
express.urlencoded({
extended: true,
})
);
```
Magic!
Hi Ed, what happened to your Github account? Thanks for the great content!
i finally knew your trick after slow it down on 0.25 speed :)
Finally found a developer with humor , nice tutorial man
Let me guess the one dislike on this video is a PHP developer.
😕 I don't think so.. I am PHP developer, but I have always wanted to start with something like this. This guy is a hero for me. I have immediately subscribed and liked this video. I wish he had zero dislikes.
Php devs don't love themselves

I think that it will be cool if U make tutorial for authorization (registration, login) app with some other features (for example,using React for front), and show how to integrate that with backend. Thank u for great explaining.

I'm following along the tutorial but Postman is stuck at "Sending" @ 34:12
It prints console log message but nothing with mongoDB... I see nothing nothing updated in MongoDB atlas too.
Please reply as to what could the solution to the problem be?
Same
Check your DB connection string
same problem. I tried retrieving the connection string again, no luck. seems to be a problem with the promise, or postman not working with the db. my postman console log shows Error: socket hang up on the post requests im sending after they fail - looked online for context/resolution, not much help.. only thing i could find that might help is about making sure the proxy is configured correctly. thats outside my wheelhouse, i just made sure to turn off any proxy in postman via settings>proxy, still no luck.
Hi. I am facing the same issue. Do u guys able to find a solution?
I had the same issue. It took me hours to catch the issue.. I spelled mongoose with a capitial "M" as in const mongoose = require('Mongoose') thus all of my db operations timed out.
Love this tutorial! Though, I'm stuck at the postman : POST (34:00)
It seems that since mlab switched to atlas mango db, the server connection is way slower (proper 2 minutes) (or I did something wrong setting it up lol) - hence the postman just gives up on the request. I don't really know what to do, would love some guidance here
bro use mongodb atlas...The whole process is same just made it with atlas
Captain Macintosh Pubg alright safe ! Is your database connecting fast ? I’ll try again
Deffo not working, I get a « could not get any response » from postman
@@Maxonepiece mine works fast
I have the same issue.. tried debugging, gets stuck in post.save() in posts.js.. let me know if you or anybody knows the fix
I really love people that teach code with character, it's so much engaging than being stiff and plain, thank you! Also you can use Yarn instead of npm haha
somehow this syntax at 29:13 worked for Ed but not for me...

"Good job package.json, you're doing your job!"
I spat my coffee laughing LOL
at 34:16 when i send the post, postman times out and gives warning "Warning: This request did not get sent completely and might not have all the required system headers". I followed the postman recommended fixes and nothing. I can view the post on "get" but i cant seem to post. Any ideas?

Thank you so much buddy, Only left to learn for me was backend and you made it so easy. Now i can move on to my journey on becoming a full stack developer on flutter lessgo .. Love you man.
Ive watched many Node, Express tutorials. This is, by far, the best one Ive seen. Thank you!
hi i hope u can help me
why middlewares not working ?
app.use not working for me
If you are watching in 2021, you have to use mongoDB Atlas, it's the same process, jus create your account and create a database, then in the section clusters you have an interface, just click in coneection and click in conecct aplication, and they will give you a link and you can keep the process with ed, it's just the same
And about creating an user, just go to the section database access and create your user
And if you have a problem in the connection stuff, just copy this right after the data base variable
{
useNewUrlParser: true,
useUnifiedTopology: true,
dbName: "Rest-Api-Tutorial"
}
And put whatever name you want to put !
And sorry for my poor english, and have a good day working !
Hey man, I need help. I am totally new to Express+Mongo, I have done exactly what you have showed. Its getting connected to database too. But when I am trying to post(save) data to database, its not showing any result( res.json(data) is not coming up in postman). What I think is happening is I have not mentioned the collection name. Do we need to specify the collection name too in Schema. if yes, could you please provide me with full details. Thanks in advance
Did you manage to fix this??
@@chanellesesh4977 yes. We need to pass the collection name as a parameter if the collection is already created in the database. In my case, I wanted to use one of the collection already provided in Mongo Db Atlas. So I just pass the name of the collection as a parameter in the Schema. That's it.
@ yeah sure
const GradesSchema = mongoose.Schema({
recrd : {
type : String
},
vesslterms : {
type : String
},
feature_type :{
type : String
},
chart :{
type : String
},
latdec :{
type : Number
},
londec :{
type : Number
},
gp_quality :{
type : String
},
depth :{
type : String
},
sounding_type :{
type : String
},
history :{
type : String
},
quasou : {
type : String
},
watlev: {
type : String
}
}, {collection : 'shipwrecks'});
The 'shipwrecks' being the collection name.
@ are you giving the right database name in the connection url? Change the 'test' part with your database name in the connection url
{ useNewUrlParser: true, useUnifiedTopology: true }, add this to your app.js file inside mongoose.connect
best course to learn about node js for beginners . Don't search for any other course just continue his technique it's worth a time.
You are a really good teacher. You don´t just code away but actually take your time to explain what´s happening with each line of code. It makes it so much easier to understand!

Got an error trying to create a post document, i console logged the whole thing:

Can anyone help me with this?
same error bro
Spent all day looking for someone to teach it in an understandable way, this ended my search. Thank you!
for those who are getting error or say the /posts is not loading then just write
// Middlewares
app.use('/posts', (req, res, next) => {
console.log("hello this is a posts middleware");
next()
});
the next function removes the discontinuation to the get handlers which are below the app.use middleware
Hey Anshuman, thanks for that tip! have you completed many projects in node? Are you a 2021-passout and open to opportunities in web development currently?
First time viewer here. Love the energy, passion and light hearted humor. Keep up the good work! I believe I got here from Brad Traversy recommending your channel.
Hello Ed, i have a connection to the database, but when i click on send (in postman) nothing happens in my mongodb database and i dont get a response in postman. its just still waiting. (min 34). until here everything worked fine!
I am using mongodb, because mlab doesent allow new registrations and i took the option (connect your application to your cluster using mongodb drivers)
What can i do?
ps: very good tutorial, you have my subscribe
fixed it: i took the 2. option (usind drivers) and took version 3, copy pasted the link and did it without any download stuff, just using the link and env
Honestly, I spend 53 minutes and 54 seconds of my life learning something useful. Thank you, Ed. You will have a good love life.
😂 you nailed it
Not sure if anyone will even see this but MongoDB didn't like using a Google Cloud server-I would get "buffering timed out after 10000ms" after Posting. Switching to AWS seemed to solve the issue though.
Also @ 33:42 res.json ( { message:err } ),
it seemed that it should be res.json ( { message:err.message } ) instead.
iam already on AWS, but still iam getting the same error
@@saptarshihore3388 try switching server locations?
This one is cool tutorial. To the point.
Btw, mlab has been acquired by Mongo atlas. So, everything has been changed
Not really, Mongo atlas is almost identical and it is very easy to go along with the tutorial
-For the error after Posting in the minute 33:42:
THE SOLUTION is rewriting your code this way in the moongose connection using ".then()" and ".catch" after ".connect()":
mongoose
.connect(process.env.MONGO_PROD_URI, {
useNewUrlParser: true,
useUnifiedTopology: true,
useCreateIndex: true, })
.then(() => console.log("Database connected!"))
.catch(err => console.log(err));
10:40 "It says to connect use driver blah blah blah blah here" ... This is pretty much how I read documentation..
I'm getting an error named post.save(..).then(..).catch() is not a function can you help me out with this plzzz
1 Year later still the best tutorial. Just started NodeJs and this covered mostly all the concepts i needed to build an API. Keep up the good work!!
5 years later, still the best tutorial :)
I failed at 36:23, I got an empty error message. I guess the problem is with connection, as of June 2022 there's no mlab anymore, so connection string looks a little bit different. Can you make tutorial how to connect with mongoDB selecting "Connect your application" option?
For people having trouble around the 33:00 minute mark when trying to commit a post via Postman I suggest checking your name and password is correct on your mongoDB link.
Its totally correct but still not working
U are right man. It´s a big confusing, but I got it
Thanks.
@@kiranmahajan778 Have you solved ? Commit (save method) is not working and no error message is displayed!
here the solution: check if your ip changed, update your whitelist in the mlab, then it should work
@@robertoradu9965 okay i will try!
there's a lot of using "POST" ....i only understood after several attempts.....please make use of other relative terms instead of using the "POST".....a bit difficult for newbie....but though its a pretty good lecture
YOOOOO lol you made me laugh so hard when you were like "I don't know why you would have a price." The way you gave attention to that was just awesome. "let me get rid of that." OMG laughing so hard.
Please make updated restful app tutorial. Because moab is down and i like to follow everything but now there confusion on 20:00 of the video cuz i cant access localhost:3000/posts
So please updated version
This is awesome! well explained, easy to understand and great tempo!
mLab is now part of the MongoDB family, the configuration seems very different from now. To configure a cluster and connection config, you can check here www.mongodb.com/blog/post/quick-start-nodejs-mongodb--how-to-get-connected-to-your-database
Thank you for making this, most tutorials I come across are difficult to understand or way too slow. Your pace and explanations for this tutorial is perfect. It is exactly what I was looking for.
NOTE: @35:37 res.json(savedPost) will throw an error,
you are passing an object...
change to: res.json( { savedPost } ).
use mongodb atlas instead of mlab, cause is has been acquired, great tutorial
By MongoDB

I am getting error in 34 min .. When I am trying to post with postman my .catch function is running.. please someone help me
I can't manage to update the DB either..
Getting same error
Easy to follow tutorial. However, as is so often the case I am doing this more than 3 years after the video was created and it looks as though MongoDB have changed their web UI and MLab as it appears in this video is no longer there. I have managed to create a database using the new MongoDB interface but it is not clear, to me, what URI, I need to write to it. When I first created my Mongo account I was offered a URI that connects successfully with the code in the tutorial but I was not asked to create a database at that point. If I create the database, again I can get a URI for it but it looks completely different to the first one and the authentication parameters are not there. Sigh. In order to get this tutorial to work I am going to have to spend quite a bit of time figuring out how to use MongoDB.
Oh if I try and use the original URI when the MongoDB account was created I get this error back when I post the data. "Operation `posts.insertOne()` buffering timed out after 10000ms" This doesn't surprise me as that original URI does not reference any particular mongo database. I need to understand how to correctly reference the database in mongo URI.
For anyone doing this now, when you can't just use mlab but have to use Atlas:
You need to click connect your cluster via application, copy and paste that string. In addition, you might have to create a DB for that cluster if you haven't already.
To do this click the collections button on the cluster and then hit add a database.
You are an absolute legend for this! Postman kept returning no data on the post request and I was about to give up
Great video, I have a problem though when trying to post data to my collection. The error is as follows: "MongooseError: Operation `posts.insertOne()` buffering timed out after 10000ms"
Does anybody have a potential solution for this?
Did you solve this issue?
Unfortunately not, I've tried making requests from different computers and networks and I encounter the same error.

This is so fucking easy, I hate PHP right now
Apart from being a pretty interesting teacher, you just make me laugh. You have a great personality and vibe
When logging-in in MLab, it now redirects you to Atlas MongoDB which has a totally different setup with Mlab. With that said, I really can't follow the tutorial. :(
There is basically no difference between those two. Just try again, it's quite easy to adjust
You can still follow along. I'm doing the tutorial currently and have had no issues, other than navigating a different website to find how to grant access and get the string for the mongoDB connection

@@luiscarloshidalgocascante265 you can use google cloud instead of AWS
Thank you for the Tutorial Here is the code :github.com/HarshilShrivastava/Basic-Rest-API.git
I have a question:
I use exactly the same structure like you, but i have multiple routes in my app.js, not only one for posts.
And when I POST something, like creating a new topic in a forum, but the route to forum in my app.js comes before another route like for example a route to accounts, then in MongoDB everything i post will end up in the collection of the last used route in my app.js, so I will have forum posts in my account collection.
Someone knows, why that happens?
like I said, my code is exactly the same, i only use multiple routes
for reference, it looks like this:
//Forum
const forumRoute = require('./Routes/forum');
app.use('/forum', forumRoute);
//Account
const accountRoute = require('./Routes/account');
app.use('/account', accountRoute);
how to connect mongoDB?? My postman cant send POST method..
Just a quick PSA for the complete beginners here: this MLab used in the video is no more, MongoDB now uses Atlas, which is a lot better UX wise and you can follow along with the video quite the same way, just don't go searching to register on MLab because you won't find what you need.
What an awesome tutorial. I literally went from 0 to having a functional REST API with this and no other JS/NodeJS background.
If you cant connect to mongoDB with mongoose (like me!), make sure that your IP is whitelisted under the "Network Access" Tab

I'm only 23 minutes in and i'm already feeling more confident with your explanations. I've read the express documentation before this, and I went and bought a Udemy course from Brad T, and I got my money back after watching for 3 hours...Everything Brad was doing just sucked. He didn't explain anything. So i'm glad I found this resource. I'm coming to find that reading the documentation first on the website, then finding peoples tutorials on here is more valuable than buying a course. At least for some things.
I am taking my first steps into junior development.
I was tasked by my mentor to create an API with only 1 Route.
He asked for just a 2 tier database architecture as 3 might have been difficult for me to comprehend.
After a few hours of searching the internet, I stumbled across this video among other older videos.
This was the only tutorial that fundamentally taught me everything i needed to know and more.
Thank you so much for your help!
I cannot wait see what else I can learn in programming :)
thanks for this! much appreciated I learned several new concepts I hadn't seen before: the dotenv (which is extremely useful) for example...the dependency to get around the CORS policy error...all very informative.
@Dev Ed hello, thank you so much for wonderful tutorial. Does anyone know how do I do the following: my Server.js file is located in Server folder. How do I get "start" from package.json to go one level up and then access that nodemon server.js ... so that when I type: npm start, it runs the server.js that is in server folder. I tried ../server nodemon server.js , but it didn't work
Great vid. I just hope the Async and Await is explained a little more. I'm a new subscriber.
BTW, are you able to share the code for this activity? Thanks
35:04 your solution didn't work for me. I had to use below
post.save(function (err) {
if (err) {
console.log(err);
} else {
console.log("success");
}
});
Also in cloud.mongo > Network Access Given Access to everybody 0.0.0.0/0 (includes your current IP address)

npm init -y to auto accept all the options in the initial package file
34:24 I'm actually stuck here. My model doesn't get saved. The post operation on insomnia is just waiting and the document never gets saved. I'm pointing to the right database. Do I need to point to a specific collection of the database as well?
NOTE: It works if I specify the collection. Weird.
hey man how do you do that? i have the same problem
@@idowork23 Add another argument to the function (string) and specify the collection. It works without specifying the collection if database and collection names are different.
@@TigasFMS can you show us the code you used?
Great turotial! Btw, for whom watches the video today - remove() is deprecated. Insted use deleteOne() method.
17:35 "hope you still with me, cause I'm lost already, I'm tired" oh man... I feel that. I'm tired too, but I'm still here
:S at 34:13 I'm getting an error that says "Post is not a constructor" Please help! Thanks
I debugged this. but now it's just not working :/ postman isn't getting a response.
Any idea what I can do?
@@jefflaub12 nope! might actually use SQL/php..
This is tutorial perfect, this is what I have been looking for for a long time. Thank you from VietNam !
I'm getting an error named post.save(..).then(..).catch() is not a function can you help me out with this plzzz
can you specify the dependency in the video description for next time bcos it is not comfortable for ppl like out of internet connection when they are working. and BIGGGG Thanks
really great this course for the beginners but short ;-)
Great video. Thanks heaps. The entire video was both entertaining and instructional but, to me, the cherry on the cake was the little CORS bit. Many a time I had the feeling that dealing with CORS issues was an obscure arcane practice. Who’d have known the problem was so easy to solve? Thank you and regards from Brazil.
Your teaching technics are just amazing. Sorry to say your fingers are too big. Don't shake it's looking like a spider. :D
