mongodb-bluebird

library0.1.2jsnpmunverified

A thin wrapper around the node-mongodb-native driver that returns Bluebird promises instead of callbacks or raw promises. Version 0.1.2 is the latest and only release. It adds convenience methods like findById and automatic ObjectId conversion for _id fields. Not actively maintained; superseded by the built-in promise support in the MongoDB driver (using native Promise or Bluebird via options).

Verified usage

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

mongo

✓ import mongo from 'mongodb-bluebird'

✗ const mongo = require('mongodb-bluebird').default

This package only provides a default export. Do not use named imports; there are no named exports.

mongo (CommonJS)

✓ const mongo = require('mongodb-bluebird')

✗ var mongo = require('mongodb-bluebird').default

In CommonJS, the default export is accessed via require directly; no .default is needed.

mongodb (raw driver)

✓ import { mongodb } from 'mongodb-bluebird'

✗ const mongodb = require('mongodb-bluebird')

The raw driver is available as a named export `mongodb`. Do not confuse with the default export.

Connects to MongoDB, queries all documents from the 'users' collection, logs them, and closes the connection.

import mongo from 'mongodb-bluebird'; const uri = process.env.MONGO_URI ?? 'mongodb://localhost:27017/mydb'; mongo.connect(uri) .then(db => { const users = db.collection('users'); return users.find().then(usersList => { console.log(usersList); return db.close(); }); }) .catch(err => console.error('Connection error:', err));

Debug

Known issues

deprecatedPackage is no longer maintained; use MongoDB driver's native promise support instead.

fix

Use `const MongoClient = require('mongodb').MongoClient;` with `useNewUrlParser` and `useUnifiedTopology` options, and either native promises or Bluebird via `promiseLibrary` option.

affects: *

gotchaThe package does not expose TypeScript typings; all types are any.

fix

Manually define types or use `@types/mongodb` and cast as needed.

affects: *

gotchaAutomatic ObjectId conversion for _id may silently mutate data if _id is not a valid ObjectId string.

fix

Disable ObjectId conversion with `db.collection('users', { ObjectId: false })` or validate _id strings beforehand.

affects: *

gotchaThe package uses an old version of the MongoDB driver (likely 2.x), which has breaking changes from 3.x+.

fix

Upgrade to a modern MongoDB driver with promise support to avoid deprecated API errors.

affects: *

Errors

Common errors & fixes

Cannot find module 'mongodb-bluebird'

The package is not installed or is misspelled.

fix

Run `npm install mongodb-bluebird` and ensure the package name is correct.

TypeError: mongo.connect is not a function

Incorrect import style; used named import instead of default.

fix

Use `import mongo from 'mongodb-bluebird'` or `const mongo = require('mongodb-bluebird')`.
