MongoDB and mongoose schema - mongodb

Question

This is model in models.js
var PatientSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
_id : String,
LastName : String,
MiddleName : String,
PatientIntId : String,
Sex : String,
Address1 : String,
City : String,
State : String,
ZipCode : String,
AccountNumber : String,
Ssn : String
});
var PatientInfoMdl = mongoose.model('PatientInfo',PatientSchema);
exports.PatientInfoMdl = PatientInfoMdl;
and my code for accessing data is :
var dbObj = require('../dataBase');
var config = require('../config');<
var moment = require('moment');
var models = require('../models/models');
var orm = require('orm');
var xml2js = require('xml2js');
var fs = require('fs');
var user = models.user;
var PatientInfoMdl = models.PatientInfoMdl;
exports.DisplayUsers = function (req, res) {
var name = '';
dbObj.connect(config.get('mongo'), function () {
PatientInfoMdl.find()({}, function (err, docs) {
if (err)
res.json(err);
else res.render('index', { Patients : docs });
});
});
}
and I am not getting data and what is my mistake?

Answer 1

My mistake is not following the naming conventions of collections in mongoDB.
Is there a convention to name collection in MongoDB?

Answer 2

For example:
Controller.js
var mongoose = require('mongoose');
var User = mongoose.model('User');
module.exports = {
show: function(req, res) {
User.find({}, function(err, users) {
res.render('main', {users: users});
})
}
}
Models:User.js
// require mongoose
var mongoose = require('mongoose');
// create the UserSchema
var UserSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
name: String
})
// register the schema as a model
var User = mongoose.model('User', UserSchema);
module.exports = {User}
routes.js
// here we load the Quote model that we created on the server.js page
var mongoose = require('mongoose');
var User = mongoose.model('User');
// import users
var users = require('../controllers/users.js');
module.exports = function(app) {
app.get('/', function(req, res) {
res.send("Hello");
})
app.get('/user',function(req,res){
users.show(req,res);
})
}
