Mongoose VS TypeScript

To manage user auth we need to create a user account - identification. So, let's install mongoose and jsonwebtoken to handle JWT authentication - an alternative to creating a user session when a user logs in

If your application uses MongoDB's Node.js driver or Mongoose ODM, occasionally you may observe errors such as querySrv ECONNREFUSED _mongodb._tcp.cluster0.abcde.mongodb.net or Error: querySrv ETIMEOUT _mongodb._tcp.cluster0.abcde.mongodb.net being thrown. The MongoDB Atlas documentation outlines several methods to troubleshoot connection issues, including how to handle "Connection Refused using SRV Connection String" scenarios, but why does this happen in the first place?

If you use Sequalize, TypeORM or for MongoDB, we have Mongoose these types of ORM tools, then you are safe by default because these help us against the SQL query injection attacks by default.

Mongoose

Now that we have created a new MongoDB deployment and saved the connection string in .env file, we would enter the code below to connect to MongoDB database through mongoose. Then, open db.js and enter this code:

Mongoose is a popular JavaScript library used with MongoDB, a NoSQL database. It provides an elegant and user-friendly way to interact with MongoDB from Node.js applications. Mongoose offers several key benefits:

To simplify this process, Cerbos developers have come up with adapters for popular Object-Relational Mapping (ORM) frameworks. You can check out for more details on the query plan repo - which also contains adapters for Prisma and SQLAlchemy - as well as a fully functioning application using Mongoose as its ORM.

After importing the mongoose module, use the [mongoose.connect()](https://mongoosejs.com/docs/api/mongoose.html#mongoose_Mongoose-connect) function to connect to the database. The first argument is the connection string, and the second argument is an object that contains the options, which are used to configure the connection. The above code logs the message, MongoDB connection is established successfully! 🎉, once the connection is successful.

Helmet helps “sanitise” the input, which might not have come from the UI directly. Mongoose is what is known as an Object Document Modelling (ODM), which defines a structure (schema) for the stored data, making it easier to manage in Express. These additions have been omitted from our example stack purely to simplify the tutorial and focus on the fundamental tiers and interfaces.

Learning Curve and Developer Tooling sCrypt is an embedded Domain Specific Language (eDSL) based on TypeScript. It is strictly a subset of TypeScript, so all sCrypt code is valid TypeScript. TypeScript is chosen as the host language because it provides an easy, familiar language (JavaScript), but with type safety. There’s an abundance of learning materials available for TypeScript and thus sCrypt, including online tutorials, courses, documentation, and community support. This makes it relatively easy for beginners to start learning. It also has a vast ecosystem with numerous libraries and frameworks (e.g., React, Angular, Vue) that can simplify development and integration with Web2 applications.

As a JavaScript or TypeScript developer, you might have come across the terms type and interface when working with complex data structures or defining custom types. While both serve similar purposes, they have distinct characteristics that influence when to use them. In this blog post, we'll delve into the differences between types and interfaces in TypeScript, providing examples to aid your understanding.

TypeScript helps you in many ways in the context of a JavaScript app. It makes it easier to consume interfaces of any type.

In this guide, we'll be extracting information from Amazon product pages using the power of TypeScript in combination with the Cheerio and Crawlee libraries. We'll explore how to retrieve and extract detailed product data such as titles, prices, image URLs, and more from Amazon's vast marketplace. We'll also discuss handling potential blocking issues that may arise during the scraping process.

Familiarity with TypeScript, React and Next.js

On top of that, Vite’s compiler is super fast, supports Typescript (which we of course used), and built just fine on our host, which was Cloudflare Pages. Cloudflare Pages is a super fast static website hosting service by Cloudflare, which allows your site to take advantage of their global CDN to make sure your site is as close to your users as possible. It supports nearly any JS framework you could want to use for your site, and can even host plan old HTML if you’re of that persuasion.

Popmotion prioritizes simplicity and ease of use in its design. Written in TypeScript and compatible with any API that accepts numerical input, it offers a straightforward API and supports major browsers. Popmotion's architecture powers animations in Framer Motion and can be extended through plugins.
