javascript - Empty response in MEAN database query -

i trying node.js server communicate database can extend angular front end. have path makes request database should return entire database (5 documents). have connection database can see connect when refresh server.

i try list relevant code below:

loading modules...

var express = require('express'); var morgan = require('morgan'); var mongoose = require('mongoose'); var bodyparser = require('body-parser'); var methodoverride = require('method-override'); var app = express(); 

defining database schema , connecting

// database connection , scheme =================== mongoose.connect('mongodb://localhost/data/');  var schema = mongoose.schema({     date: 'string',     newproofs: [number],     changes: [number],     output: [number] });  var test2014 = mongoose.model('test2014', schema); 

middleware configurations. don't know methodoverride does. believe body parser allows response json?

//  application middleware , configurations ============== app.set('view engine', 'ejs');  app.use(express.static(__dirname + '/public')); app.use(morgan('dev')); app.use(bodyparser.urlencoded({'extended':'true'}));                    // parse application/x-www-form-urlencoded app.use(bodyparser.json());                                                         // parse application/json app.use(bodyparser.json({ type: 'application/vnd.api+json' }));     // parse application/vnd.api+json json app.use(methodoverride()); 

path making request database.

app.get('/api/test2014', function(req, res) {      // use mongoose weekdays display     test2014.find(function(err, days) {          // if there error retrieving, send error nothing else         if (err)             res.send(err);          res.json(days);     }); }); 

listening...

var server = app.listen(3000, function() {     console.log('listening on port %d', server.address().port); }); 

when refresh page @ http://localhost:3000/api/test2014 see this:

{} 

i expect see (what have in database).

> db.test2014.find().pretty() {         "_id" : objectid("541c377d51b7f5ebbffb7ab1"),         "date" : "09192014",         "newproofs" : 15,         "changes" : 16,         "output" : 17 } {         "_id" : objectid("541c4a4451b7f5ebbffb7ab2"),         "date" : "09182014",         "newproofs" : 7,         "changes" : 8,         "output" : 9 } {         "_id" : objectid("541c4a5651b7f5ebbffb7ab3"),         "date" : "09172014",         "newproofs" : 8,         "changes" : 9,         "output" : 10 } {         "_id" : objectid("541c4a7151b7f5ebbffb7ab4"),         "date" : "09162014",         "newproofs" : 9,         "changes" : 10,         "output" : 11 } {         "_id" : objectid("541c4a8051b7f5ebbffb7ab5"),         "date" : "09152014",         "newproofs" : 10,         "changes" : 11,         "output" : 12 } 

thanks reading!

ps - request header says accepts accept:text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,image/webp,*/*;q=0.8

does json need somewhere in there?

the problem @ following line:

var test2014 = mongoose.model('test2014', schema); 

by default, when pass 2 arguments above function, mongoose assumes collection name being 'test2014s' first argument plus "s".

i see in query below collection name 'test2014'. recommend explicitly pass collection name , try following instead:

var test2014 = mongoose.model('test2014', schema, 'test2014');
