I am trying to create a simple MongooseJS example program that gets a list of items from a collection, and it's ing back empty every time. Here is the code:

var mongoose = require('mongoose')
  , Schema = mongoose.Schema;

var sampleSchema = new Schema({
    sampleField    : String
});

var db = mongoose.connect('mongodb://localhost:27017/test');

var sampleCollection = mongoose.model('sampleCollection', sampleSchema);

sampleCollection.find({ } , function (err, items) {
    console.log(items); // outputs []
    console.log(err); // outputs null
    items.forEach( function(item) {
        console.log(item); // does not reach this code
    });
});

I have a default instance of MongoDB running, and this is what I've entered in the shell:

> use test
> db.sampleCollection.save({sampleField : "Hello"});
> db.sampleCollection.save({sampleField : "Goodbye"});
> db.sampleCollection.find({});
{ "_id" : ObjectId("4f28944b38b59225012109da"), "sampleField" : "Hello" }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("4f28945138b59225012109db"), "sampleField" : "Goodbye" }

Any idea why my code doesn't return any data?

Thanks for your help, Dave

mongoose will normalize the name of collection to lowercase and pluralzed. Therefore, you should insert into db.samplecollections instead of db.sampleCollection. (Notice the difference of letter c and s here).

to test it:

s = new sampleCollection({sampleField: 'hello'}); // creates a new record
s.save(function(err) { 
  sampleCollection.find({ } , function (err, items) {
      console.log(items); 
      console.log(err); 
      items.forEach( function(item) {
          console.log(item); 
      });
  });
});

and it properly prints:

[ { sampleField: 'hello', _id: 4f28ab4cc9e58f710a000001 } ]
null
{ sampleField: 'hello', _id: 4f28ab4cc9e58f710a000001 }

then in mongo shell:

> show collections
samplecollections          //<<<<<<<<<<<<<< It's all lowercase and pluralized
system.indexes

> db.samplecollections.find()
{ "sampleField" : "hello", "_id" : ObjectId("4f28ab4cc9e58f710a000001") }

While this is true, you can specify the name of the collection in the third argument and it will use the case from that string:

var sampleCollection = mongoose.model('sampleCollection', sampleSchema,'SampleCollection');
