i had this issue replace db with mongo.collections.db and its good to go
Distinctively lack of info out there on this issue. Not sure if you're still dealing with this issue.
Along the same lines as @ghaedi93, you have to access the correct object in mongo version >= 3.0
This is what I ended up with:
var acl = require('acl');
const mongodb = require('mongodb');
const databaseURI = `mongodb://localhost:27017/acldb`;
mongodb.connect(databaseURI, {useNewUrlParser: true, useUnifiedTopology: true}, function(err, database) {
console.log("Connected successfully to server");
acl = new acl(new acl.mongodbBackend(database.db('acldb'), '_acl'));
acl.allow('guest', 'blogs', 'view')
.then( (result)=> {
console.log(result);
})
.catch( err => {
console.log(err);
})
});
If you replace your db in your mongodbBackend function argument with db.db('dbname') it should work
i am using ACL module with mongodb, i define some roles and their permissions using the acl.allow() function.
I am sure the database is connected, but the code running above gave me an error saying
