Connecting to a Database

It is recommended to initialize a database connection in the subscription.service file in your PUBSUB_ROOT_DIR. Insert your database connection logic in the init method.

/pubsub/subscription.service.ts

import * as PubSub from '@honestfoodcompany/pubsub';

import mongoose from 'mongoose';

import { SubscriberOptions } from '@honestfoodcompany/pubsub';

export default class SubscriptionService extends PubSub.SubscriptionService {

/**

* This function is called when the subscription server starts.

*/

static async init(): Promise<void> {

/**

* This is a good place to initialize a database connection

*/

await mongoose.connect();

}

}
