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
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.
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 :)
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! Subbed.
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 :)
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.
I put this on for 10 minutes of background noise while I made my morning coffee and ended up transfixed for the whole thing. Your style is incredibly engaging, I laughed out loud a bunch of times and I could listen to your accent all day. Thanks a lot!
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
Whenever I want to learn something from youtube I search that Keyword and starts watching that videos, but if I don't understand that, I just search for your channel and find that topic, and that's it. thank you for making these educational videos. ♥♥♥
Your teaching style never gets me bored. If I can only Subscribe on your channel for a thousand times I'll do it. Keep it up and may you never runs out of energy doing this.
I was doing an online course on node js and would always freak out when it comes to connecting with Mongo db. Literraly stopped continuing on that paid course to return to RUclips and learn it so well from this video. No wonders, you are a great teacher and have bright future. My best wishes and blessings for a great love life as well. Keep up the great work with the same passion and you will see miracles happening in your life. Thanks again. God bless you.
Dude, you're saving my life. Explained that even I understood whole flow and what each line of code is doing. You definetely should compete for a Nobel Prize or something. Thanks mate!
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.
guys can some one share working code please (github) devE's link for github in description doesent exist i am having issue writing data to database but i am not getting any errors couldn't figure out trying very hard
Just created my first API with this tutorial. And, most important, not just copied your code but understood every step. Lott'a loving from Argentina man.
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
SIR This has got to be the most clear, concise and well made programming tutorial that I have EVER seen. Please keep making videos in this format. I can't express in words how helpful this video is for me. THANK YOU
Awesome tutorial here, been looking for this RESTAPI with async await, it just came at the right time. I would like to see you go in depth with user auth and bcrypt. You just saved a soul
Before, I was a PHP Developer. I want to improve my skills in the Back-End area. After a long time of pondering, I want to move to NodeJS. Thank you for making this great video. I can understand your explanation very easily. Greetings from Indonesia~
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.
After investing money on udemy courses and countless hours of navigating through complicated documentation and tutorials accross the web, I was finally able to build my first REST Api with the help of this video and not only did I built it, I also grasped the fundamental architecture of the implementation of REST in Node.js world. Thanks a lot for making my day. Liked, shared and subscribed! 😊♥
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.
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.
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?
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.
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 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.
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.
i used to watch this video and yet couldnt understand(because i was really beginner at coding) and recently learnt how to build an api with GO, and its actually easy, and now i come back again watch this video, and finally understood what those code do, i mean thankyou for video, ts great. and for people who struggle with JS, Go is trully beginner friendly. thanks
Hi, I'm having problem with postman. Its returning me "could not get any response" when posting "my first post" but prior to that it is showing in the terminal. What could be wrong?
Hey I'm getting error on the time interval of 33:47 to 35:54 were there is new (first) data generate for the mongoose with post. For me its just going into the ".catch" instead of the ".then"
@@kristboshnjaku135 Try this out and also one more thing make sure you have your ip address connected to the altas mongo db because when you run on localhost it won't with just db user and password you will need to config the ip address.
You are great. The way you are teaching is awesome. This is the first time I watched a whole tutorial video. Thank you for teaching all these in a simple way!
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
@@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.
You are one of best teacher i had ever seen ... I myself also educator ..on serious note the way you explain is really simple connecting ... Its easy to understand and covers every major concept... Thanx sir for this contribution ... Looking forward to get more and more knowledge from you sir . 🙏
😕 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.
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.
I'm new to all of this. I have been taking courses on these very topics, Node.js, MongoDB, and API creation, and maintenance. I'm not done taking courses, but this has definitely helped me better understand how I can create my own website.
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.

@Krist Boshnjaku and @Ayesha Shabbir Did you try res.send(console.log(req.body)); INSTEAD OF console.log(req.body); ? That worked for me three months ago.
You need to put const bodyParser = require('body-parser'); ABOVE const app = express(); and it should work - took me 2h to figure it out and it's not in the vid
i get postman to console the first post but when i try to get it in postman it gives me only the error part. i tried with x-www-form-urlencoded, same thing. looked online for other solutions, nothing worked
You are literally my favorite teacher on RUclips. You know how to dumb things down to let everyone understand it. Thank you Ed for making things simple!
just another comment saying how good of a teacher you are... making me laugh while im learning is going to keep my attention longer and you are a part comedian too. thanks so much for your service!
Love your intro sir! I was actually really stressed out about the project my Lecturer gave me regarding these topics and i kinda fed up with it because ive been stuck since forever. Your intro cheered me up and help me see these stuffs in a better way! definitely gonna watch till the end
I dont know how i thank you! you just teach me nodejs , express js, mongoDb. by the way i am an native android developer and flutter developer. from now I am a node js developer to.... thank you DEV
man, I was searching CRUD and everyone making tons of file structure & MVC style, I knew Express has a patch method but no one really used that ...Thanks man
Seriously, I love this channel. It's just refreshing to have interesting/funny full-stack instruction, for a change. It's the first online course that got me excited about coding.
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.
Hi, just ran into this tutorial and you really nailed it. You made it so clear for me to understand. You're a good teacher. I had to quickly subscribe even before finishing the course. Thank you.
Beautiful. I have build my own simple application API in just two hours along following your video. Normally I buid web api with C# . But It's so quick with express and mongoose for simple CRUD API

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
"Good job package.json, you're doing your job!"

for those who are getting error or say the /posts is not loading then just write
// Middlewares
app.use('/posts', (req, res, next) => {

router.post("/", (req, res) => {
console.log(req.body);
});
I have no idea what I'm doing but this worked for me !
did you manage to find the solution to this? im having the same issue.. :(
facing same issue.. i am just getting:
{
"message": {}
}
@Krist Boshnjaku and @Ayesha Shabbir
Did you try
res.send(console.log(req.body));
INSTEAD OF
console.log(req.body); ?
That worked for me three months ago.
Yes I tried res.send at first but it didn't work ..so just for checking I changed it to console.log to see whats happening.
@@Scapben i'll check it again!!
your tutorial is the best I've found, and I want to express my heartfelt thanks for your excellent teaching.
I'm following all the way up until 34:00(ish) for some reason when in postman I can't see the object created with the id, title, desc, etc"
You need to put const bodyParser = require('body-parser'); ABOVE const app = express(); and it should work - took me 2h to figure it out and it's not in the vid
@@mattbra1397 in postman use x-www-form-urlencoded mode dont use raw its work it to me
@@BodrumDrone thanks for the info - we got now two solutions to the issue :)
@@mattbra1397 i follow all information about solution.
i get postman to console the first post but when i try to get it in postman it gives me only the error part. i tried with x-www-form-urlencoded, same thing. looked online for other solutions, nothing worked
You are literally my favorite teacher on RUclips. You know how to dumb things down to let everyone understand it. Thank you Ed for making things simple!
just another comment saying how good of a teacher you are... making me laugh while im learning is going to keep my attention longer and you are a part comedian too. thanks so much for your service!
Love your intro sir! I was actually really stressed out about the project my Lecturer gave me regarding these topics and i kinda fed up with it because ive been stuck since forever. Your intro cheered me up and help me see these stuffs in a better way! definitely gonna watch till the end
I dont know how i thank you! you just teach me nodejs , express js, mongoDb. by the way i am an native android developer and flutter developer. from now I am a node js developer to.... thank you DEV
man, I was searching CRUD and everyone making tons of file structure & MVC style, I knew Express has a patch method but no one really used that ...Thanks man
This tutorial is better than other plenty of hours of videos i've watched... Thanks for making this !!
thanks for explaining middleware concept perfectly in just one minute
I love this guy & his content. He's good at explaining everything and he makes them look like a piece of cake when it's actually the opposite.
I REALLY like that you don't fix typos in words or etc because really, who cares. We're here to learn how things work, not to perfect grammar!
I like your teaching style. It's a very useful video for backend programmers. love from India.
you look sooooooo happy, and it really makes student like me feel relaxed.
entertaining, short, tips and tricks every thing in a single video, thanks devbyED.
Seriously, I love this channel. It's just refreshing to have interesting/funny full-stack instruction, for a change.
It's the first online course that got me excited about coding.

This is the most productive video I’ve seen in RUclips in my entire life
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.
Your love life is great cause you are giving alot of informations to people and they actually love you and your style. Keep it up man!
He made the explanation of middleware so easy, it's actually ridiculous
