1)

var http = require('http');

myDateTime = function () {

return Date();

};

//create a webserver.js:

http.createServer(function (req, res) {

res.write('Name: Sam '); //write a response to the client

res.write("\nThe date is " + myDateTime());

res.end(); //end the response

}).listen(8080); //the server object listens on port 8080

2)

var MongoClient = require('mongodb').MongoClient;

var url = "mongodb://localhost:27017/";

MongoClient.connect(url, function(err, db) {

if (err) throw err;

var dbo = db.db("mydb"); //Databasename

var myobj = [

{ name: 'Pete', contact: '912-555-6666'},

{ name: 'Sam', contact: '912-111-3333'},

{ name: 'Marry', contact: '678-111-1111'},

{ name: 'April', contact: '912-690-1111'}

];

//it creates collection f not created else insert into existing one

dbo.collection("members").insertMany(myobj, function(err, res) {

if (err) throw err;

console.log("Number of documents inserted: " + res.insertedCount);

db.close();

});
