Inserting data into MongoDB using Node.js is super straightforward! You can use either:

1. ✅ The native MongoDB driver (flexible, low-level)

2. 🪄 Mongoose (ODM – simpler and schema-based)

Let’s see how to do both 👇

✅ 1. Using Native MongoDB Driver

📦 Step 1: Install MongoDB Driver

bash
npm install mongodb

🧾 Step 2: Insert Data

js
const client = new MongoClient(uri);async function insertData() {  try {    await client.connect();    const db = client.db('myDatabase');    const users = db.collection('users');    // Insert one document    const resultOne = await users.insertOne({ name: 'Alice', age: 25 });    console.log('Inserted One ID:', resultOne.insertedId);    // Insert multiple documents    const resultMany = await users.insertMany([      { name: 'Bob', age: 30 },      { name: 'Charlie', age: 28 }    ]);    console.log('Inserted Many IDs:', resultMany.insertedIds);  } catch (err) {    console.error(err);  } finally {    await client.close();  }}insertData();

🪄 2. Using Mongoose (Schema-based)

📦 Step 1: Install Mongoose

bash
npm install mongoose

🧾 Step 2: Insert Documents

js
const mongoose = require('mongoose');mongoose.connect('mongodb://localhost:27017/myDatabase')  .then(() => console.log('Connected to MongoDB!'))  .catch(err => console.error(err));// Define schemaconst userSchema = new mongoose.Schema({  name: String,  age: Number});// Create modelconst User = mongoose.model('User', userSchema);// Insert oneconst user = new User({ name: 'David', age: 22 });user.save().then(() => console.log('One user inserted'));// Insert manyUser.insertMany([  { name: 'Eve', age: 27 },  { name: 'Frank', age: 33 }]).then(() => {  console.log('Multiple users inserted');  mongoose.disconnect();});
