Guys I am decently new to backend and I have been trying to run my application but it just doesn't work, It was working at first but I tweaked it somewhere? could someone this knowledge help?
this is the error
Error connecting to MongoDB: MongooseError: The uri parameter to openUri() must be a string, got "undefined". Make sure the first parameter to mongoose.connect() or mongoose.createConnection() is a string.
this is my server.js code (pls let me know if I need to add more):
// server.js
require('dotenv').config();
const express = require('express');
const app = express();
const cors = require('cors');
const PORT = process.env.PORT || 5001 ;
const blogRoutes = require('./routers/blogRoutes'); // Import your blogRoutes
const mongoose = require('mongoose');
// Import the Blog model (from models/Blog.js)
const Blog = require('./models/Blog'); // Make sure this is the correct path
app.use(cors());
app.use(express.json());
mongoose.connect(process.env.MONGO_URI, {
useNewUrlParser: true,
useUnifiedTopology: true,
})
.then(() => {
console.log('Connected to MongoDB');
})
.catch((error) => {
console.error('Error connecting to MongoDB:', error);
});
app.use('/blogs', blogRoutes); // Use the routes for handling blog posts
app.listen(PORT, () => {
console.log(`Server is successfully running on port ${PORT}`);
});
I think their is something wrong with my uri in my env but it is perfectly find and good?
