i using passport authentication , here inserting new user. tried print out users doing

user.find({}, function(err, users){                 console.log(users);             }); 

just try see new user inserted.. , see users log... however, if go command line mongo , db.user.find(), don't see anything.. thanks!

this how people create collection mongoose

var user = mongoose.model("user",userschema ); 

this create collection in mongoose called users. make first letter lowercase ie: "u" , add "s". can check data db.users.find() hope helps. don't know if know information.

it says here compiling first model.

the first argument singular name of collection model for. mongoose automatically looks plural version of model name.

this might help
