I have this data (json):
var unique =
[
{"name":"John", "number":"4132321234"},
{"name":"Jack", "number":"451232421234"},
{"name":"Maddy", "number":"12314124"},
{"name":"Alex", "number":"213468316"}
]What I want to do, is save this data to my mongoDB collection, with the following schema (using mongoose):
const mongoose = require('mongoose')
const Schema = mongoose.Schema
const nameSchema = new Schema({
name: {
type: String,
required: true,
},
number: {
type: String,
required: true,
},
});
const Name_db = mongoose.model('Name_db', nameSchema)
module.exports = Name_db;I wrote a loop, to attempt to do this:
for (var k = 1; k < unique.length; k++) {
var name_mongo = new Name_db({
name: unique[k].name,
number: unique[k].number,
},
)
console.log(unique[k].name)
} name_mongo.save()
.then(results => {
res.send(results)
})
.catch(err => {
console.log(err);})This doesn't work because right now it is only sending data once to mongo DB, meaning only of the arrays is actually being sent over, instead of all 3 of them being sent to mongoDB.
Would appreciate any help, thank you for the time.
Name_db.insertMany(unique)
.then((result) => console.log("Inserted", result))
.catch((error) console.log(error));
or
const result = await Name_db.insertMany(unique); // remember to decorate the function async
