While using .env file in mongodb then it shows me error-CodePudding

I have installed dotenv while creating the mongodb file. then i got my user and password. to secure that i used .env file like

"${process.env.DB_USER}:${process.env.DB_PASS}"

then it is showing me bad auth. along with that it is showing codeName:

'AtlasError',
  [Symbol(errorLabels)]: Set(1) { 'HandshakeError' } this.

CodePudding user response：

I see you have used "" for the encapsulation and ${} (template literals):

"${process.env.DB_USER}:${process.env.DB_PASS}"

You have to use backticks like below to make this work and not double quotes:

`${process.env.DB_USER}:${process.env.DB_PASS}`

This one's a common problem that's been done by new folks working with JavaScript's new features.
