Node.js CouchDB and Nano 'error happened in your connection'-CodePudding

I have been looking around for well over 2 hours now trying to find SOMETHING that would give me any kind of direction with this issue but simply cannot find it.

I am using Node.js and CouchDB with docker-compose. I am also using express and nano. I have stripped my server.js file down to nearly nothing and still keep getting this

Error:

/usr/src/app/node_modules/nano/lib/nano.js:137
        reject(new Error('error happened in your connection'))
                ^
 
Error: error happened in your connection
    at responseHandler (/usr/src/app/node_modules/nano/lib/nano.js:137:16)
    at /usr/src/app/node_modules/nano/lib/nano.js:427:13
    at processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:96:5)
 
Node.js v17.0.1

I have tried about 10 different ways of laying out the url but just cannot get any kind of indication as to why it just will not work. I have tried using curl -X PUT admin:[email protected]:5984/posts/"001" -d '{"name":"Conner"} ' and it gets inserted without and issue.

server.js

'use strict';

const express = require('express');
var nano = require('nano')('http://admin:[email protected]:5984');
var posts = nano.use('posts');

const app = express();
const bodyParser = require("body-parser");

const cors =require('cors');
app.use(cors());

app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ 
    extended: true 
}));
 
const PORT = 8080;
const HOST = '0.0.0.0';


async function asyncCall() {
  const response = await posts.insert({_id: "001"}, 'rabbit')
  return response
}
asyncCall();

app.use('/', express.static('public'));
console.log('up and running');


app.listen(PORT,HOST);

CodePudding user response：

Since CouchDB is running in its own container and not on localhost, your connection string needs to point to the other container instead of 127.0.0.1 (localhost).

Since you called the CouchDB service "couchdb1", the connection string should instead be;

admin:admin@couchdb1:5984
