If I use Mongoose in node.js I need to do:
var mongoose = require('mongoose'); mongoose.connect('mongodb://localhost/myDB');
But what if I just installed mongodb and I don't have any DB at the moment? How can I create a new DB using mongoose in node.js before doing
mongoose.connect('mongodb://localhost/myDB')
? Or if there is no suchmyDB
then it will create a new one? or will throw an error that there is no such a DB?-
