Node.js MongoDB Select Record

The findOne() method is used to select a single data from a collection in MongoDB. This method returns the first record of the collection.

Example

(Select Single Record)

Select the first record from the ?employees? collection.

Create a js file named “select.js”, having the following code:

  var http = require(‘http’);  var MongoClient = require(‘mongodb’).MongoClient;  var url = “mongodb://localhost:27017/MongoDatabase”;  MongoClient.connect(url, function(err, db) {    if (err) throw err;    db.collection(“employees”).findOne({}, function(err, result) {      if (err) throw err;      console.log(result.name);      db.close();    });  });  

Open the command terminal and run the following command:

Node.js Select record 1

Select Multiple Records

The find() method is used to select all the records from collection in MongoDB.

Example

Select all the records from “employees” collection.

Create a js file named “selectall.js”, having the following code:

  var MongoClient = require(‘mongodb’).MongoClient;  var url = “mongodb://localhost:27017/MongoDatabase”;  MongoClient.connect(url, function(err, db) {    if (err) throw err;    db.collection(“employees”).find({}).toArray(function(err, result) {      if (err) throw err;      console.log(result);      db.close();    });  });  

Open the command terminal and run the following command:
