Using MongoDB with Node.js is the fourth title in Wes Higbee's explanation of all things Node. This course details how to store data - as documents - coming from your JavaScript apps into MongoDB. There are two popular approaches to interacting with MongoDB: The native driver and Mongoose. In this video, you'll learn about both of these, when to pick one over the other, and something else equally important (and often neglected): How to write maintainable asynchronous MongoDB communications code. Web app developers with a strong command of JavaScript, those wanting to incorporate server-side programming into their development, and those wanting to better understand NoSQL database technology will appreciate this step-by-step guide to using MongoDB with Node.js. Working files are included, allowing you to follow along with the author throughout the lessons. Understand how the native Node.js MongoDB driver works Learn to use the Mongoose ODM to communicate with a MongoDB serverCompare asynchronous coding styles: callbacks, promises, generators and async/await Learn how to serialize JS objects to documents stored in MongoDB. Explore basic CRUD operations with MongoDB. Practice debugging, error handling, logging, and monitoring. Show and hide more Publisher resources Download Example Code
