I’m trying to connect my function with my mongodb database (also on digitalocean) but I can’t. I already tried it with Mongoose and MongoDB, here are the codes:
Mongoose:
try {
// await mongoose.connect('mongodb+srv://my-digital-ocean-url');
mongoose.connect('mongodb+srv://my-digital-ocean-url', (err) => {
if (err) throw new Error(err);
console.log(`MongoDB Connection: ${mongoose.connection.readyState}`);
});
// console.log(`MongoDB Connection: ${mongoose.connection.readyState}`);
return {
body: { 'MongoDB Connection': mongoose.connection.readyState },
};
} catch (error) {
return {
body: { Connected: false },
};
}
I’ve tried both methods: using await, the function returns a timeout error, even if I set the timeout to 30 seconds in project.yml; using .then in the parameters, I always get a “connecting” status.
const client = new MongoClient('mongodb+srv://my-digitalocean-url');
try {
await client.connect();
// console.log(`Connected`);
return { connected: true };
} catch (e) {
console.error(e);
return {
body: { connected: false },
statusCode: 400,
};
} finally {
await client.close();
}
Using mongodb, i always get a timeout error.
But the weird thing is: the exact same code works using the node command on my machine (that’s what the console.log is for). I literally used ctrl+c ctrl+v on this, what did I do wrong?

Hi there,
Do you have Trusted Sources enabled for your MongoDB database cluster? If this is the case you would need to either:
Deploy your function as part of an App to the App Platform as described here:
https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/functions/how-to/deploy-to-app-platform/
That way you will be able to add your App to the trusted sources list for your managed database
Disable the trusted sources for your database cluster, this is not recommended if you are using a production database
Hope that this helps!
Best,
Bobby
