can't connect to mongdb nodejs

Question

i'm facing some issue when trying to connect to mongodb using my nodejs app. heres the code

const { MongoClient } = require("mongodb");

async function main() {
  const uri =
    "mongodb+srv://xxxx:xxxx@xxxx.uj545.mongodb.net/xxxx?retryWrites=true&w=majority";
  const client = new MongoClient(uri);
  await client.connect();
  await listDatabases(client);
  try {
    await client.connect();
    await listDatabases(client);
  } catch (e) {
    console.error(e);
  } finally {
    await client.close();
  }
}

main().catch(console.error);

and heres the Output:

Error: queryTxt ETIMEOUT xxxx.uj545.mongodb.net
    at QueryReqWrap.onresolve [as oncomplete] (dns.js:203:19) {
  errno: undefined,
  code: 'ETIMEOUT',
  syscall: 'queryTxt',
  hostname: 'xxxx.uj545.mongodb.net'
}

But when I tried to do a test connection with Mongodb Compass, I got the same problem.

then I tried Mongodb Compass using Windows VPS from the Google Cloud Platform, and it worked,

then, where did it go wrong?

the device that I use is Macbook Air early 2015 with MacOs mojave

Answer 1

I would recommend you not to use raw connection instead you can use mongoose as an ODM to work with it here is the ref link

Answer 2

If you create the db in mongodb cloud, you need to configure the ip address in Network Access in the mongodb cloud panel.

use 0.0.0.0/0 if you want to allow access from any ip, or enter your ip.
