Azure Cosmos DB for MongoDB client library samples for JavaScript

Getting started

This repo has a devcontainer environment making it easy to get started.

Run the app

Configure your Azure Cosmos DB credentials as environment variables.

export COSMOS_ENDPOINT="<cosmos-account-URI>"
export COSMOS_KEY="<cosmos-account-PRIMARY-KEY>"

💡 TIP: If you don't have an Azure Cosmos DB account, create a free account.

Run the quickstart sample app using the mongodb package from NPM.

cd 001-quickstart/
npm install mongodb
npm run start

Validate any changes you make

If you change the code, run the linter.

cd ./
npm install eslint-config-standard --no-save

cd ./001-quickstart/
npx eslint .

Troubleshooting certificate errors

If you use a self-signed certificate (emulator, Docker, etc.), you may need to disable Node's validation:

const client = new MongoClient(
  ...,
  { tlsAllowInvalidCertificates: true }
)
