Question

I create mongoose.js model:

db = mongoose.createConnection(mongoUrl)

model = db.model('Model', schema)

can I get mongoUrl (or server and DB name) from model?

Answer 1

Yeah, you can reference the original DB connection through model.db. So you can get all the connection information you need like this:

console.log(model.db.host); // localhost
console.log(model.db.port); // 27017
console.log(model.db.name); // myDatabase
