Installations

First, we need to include a few packages for our Nodejs application.

npm install express --save

Express allows us to set up middlewares to respond to HTTP Requests.

npm install body-parser --save

If you want to read HTTP POST data , you have to use the “body-parser” node module.

npm install mongoose --save

Mongoose is an object document mapping (ODM) layer which sits on the top of Node’s MongoDB driver.

app.js

This is the main executable application file

app.js




var express=require("express");
var bodyParser=require("body-parser");
 
const mongoose = require('mongoose');
mongoose.connect('mongodb://localhost:27017/gfg');
var db=mongoose.connection;
db.on('error', console.log.bind(console, "connection error"));
db.once('open', function(callback){
    console.log("connection succeeded");
})
 
var app=express()
 
 
app.use(bodyParser.json());
app.use(express.static('public'));
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({
    extended: true
}));
 
app.post('/sign_up', function(req,res){
    var name = req.body.name;
    var email =req.body.email;
    var pass = req.body.password;
    var phone =req.body.phone;
 
    var data = {
        "name": name,
        "email":email,
        "password":pass,
        "phone":phone
    }
db.collection('details').insertOne(data,function(err, collection){
        if (err) throw err;
        console.log("Record inserted Successfully");
             
    });
         
    return res.redirect('signup_success.html');
})
 
 
app.get('/',function(req,res){
res.set({
    'Access-control-Allow-Origin': '*'
    });
return res.redirect('index.html');
}).listen(3000)
 
 
console.log("server listening at port 3000");

Start the MongoDB. Run app.js file

node app.js

Go to the browser and open http://127.0.0.1:3000/

Fill the above form

This will add a record named “David Smith” in MongoDB. Let’s have a check in MongoDB for the same record. The record is now saved in the “gfg” database in “details” collection.
