Create a mongoDB Database User from NodeJS-CodePudding

i am trying to create a new User from my mongo Database from Nodejs. I know you can create a user via the cli like that:

db.createUser({
  user: 'USERNAME',
  pwd: passwordPrompt(),
  roles: [{
    role: 'readWrite',
    db: 'DATABASE'
  }]
})

But that is not what i am looking for, is there any way to create a User for the Database from within nodejs? Is there any libary to do such a thing or is there an api to create a new User?

CodePudding user response：

In MongoDb node driver, the createUser is not available, instead you will have to use addUser

db.addUser('username', 'password' , {
 roles
})

You can refer to this api documentation provided by the official MongoDb node driver.
