TypeError: db.collection is not a function

Using the mongodb library version 3.1.1 Gives the above error while performing any of the database transactions

not a package error

Thanks for this awesome project and youtube series... Question, I downloaded the zip file for the repository and after cd to .../nodejs-basics-tutorial-master/09-mongodb/ , attempted to run sudo npm install package.json and get npm ERR! not a package response.

I updated npm to the latest version also, thinking that might be the issue.

What do I need to change in package.json so its recognized as a valid package?

assertionError

AssertionError [ERR_ASSERTION]: Task function must be specified , what to do now

I found an error like expressValidator is not a function

Here, It's my error...
