Grommet: TypeError: Cannot read property 'modelSchemas' of undefined

Question

I'm using grommet version 1.3.4 and trying to use mongodb with node js and express. When I run npm install I get the following TypeError:

/home/jorge/Desktop/crud-app/node_modules/mongoose/lib/index.js:373
  if (!this.modelSchemas[name]) {
            ^

[nodemon] app crashed - waiting for file changes before starting...

This is the code I used for the Person schema:

import { Schema, model } from 'mongoose';

const PersonSchema = new Schema({
    name: String,
    lastName: String,
    age: Number,
    gender: String,
    updatedAt: { type: Date, default: Date.now },
    status: Boolean,
});

export default model('Person', PersonSchema);

And babel transpiled it into this:

'use strict';

Object.defineProperty(exports, "__esModule", {
    value: true
});

var _mongoose = require('mongoose');

var PersonSchema = new _mongoose.Schema({
    name: String,
    lastName: String,
    age: Number,
    gender: String,
    updatedAt: { type: Date, default: Date.now },
    status: Boolean
});

exports.default = (0, _mongoose.model)('Person', PersonSchema);
//# sourceMappingURL=person.model.js.map

Apparently it is failing at the last line where I export the model. I'm not very familiar with either mongodb and grommet, so any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?

Answer 1

apparently import { Schema, model } from 'mongoose'; doesn't work... I had to use this instead:

import mongoose from 'mongoose';

const PersonSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
    name: String,
    lastName: String,
    age: Number,
    gender: String,
    updatedAt: { type: Date, default: Date.now },
    status: Boolean,
});

export default mongoose.model('Person', PersonSchema);
