bem-mongodb-connection

library1.0.22jsnpmunverified

A lightweight MongoDB connection helper for Node.js applications. Version 1.0.22 provides a simple wrapper around the native MongoDB driver to establish and manage database connections with minimal configuration. It offers basic connection pooling and URI parsing. Development appears infrequent with no recent updates, and the package lacks documentation. Simpler than Mongoose but without schema validation or middleware.

Code

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

connect

✓ import { connect } from 'bem-mongodb-connection'

✗ const connect = require('bem-mongodb-connection').connect

ESM export; CJS require with destructuring may work

default

✓ import connection from 'bem-mongodb-connection'

✗ const connection = require('bem-mongodb-connection')

Default export returns a connection object; CJS require gives the default

getConnection

✓ import { getConnection } from 'bem-mongodb-connection'

✗ import getConnection from 'bem-mongodb-connection'

Named export, not default

Shows basic connection to MongoDB using environment variable for URI and a findOne operation.

import { connect } from 'bem-mongodb-connection'; async function main() { const uri = process.env.MONGO_URI ?? 'mongodb://localhost:27017/mydb'; try { const db = await connect(uri); console.log('Connected successfully'); // Use db object for operations const result = await db.collection('users').findOne({}); console.log(result); } catch (err) { console.error('Connection failed:', err); } } main();

Debug

Known issues

gotchaPackage has no README or examples; usage based on source inspection.

fix

Review source code in node_modules to understand API

affects: >=1.0.0

deprecatedNo updates in over 2 years; may rely on older MongoDB driver.

fix

Consider using Mongoose or the official MongoDB driver directly

affects: >=1.0.22

gotchaConnection does not handle reconnection automatically; you must implement retry logic.

fix

Wrap in try/catch and reconnect on failure

affects: >=1.0.0

breakingDefault export changed between versions; verify your import pattern.

fix

Use named import { connect } instead of default

affects: <=1.0.20

Errors

Common errors & fixes

Cannot find module 'bem-mongodb-connection'

Package not installed or missing from package.json

fix

npm install bem-mongodb-connection

connect is not a function

Incorrect import style; using default import when named export expected

fix

Use import { connect } from 'bem-mongodb-connection'

TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'collection')

Connection failed or db object null

fix

Check connection URI and handle errors asynchronously
