Create and save

Tell us what’s happening:
it is timing out

/** 1) Install & Set up mongoose */
let mongoose = require('mongoose'); 
mongoose.connect("mongodb+srv://Brian:<password>@cluster0-i4hoz.mongodb.net/test?retryWrites=true&w=majority", { useNewUrlParser: true, useUnifiedTopology: true }); 

// Add mongodb and mongoose to the project's package.json. Then require 
// mongoose. Store your Mongo Atlas database URI in the private .env file 
// as MONGO_URI. Connect to the database using the following syntax:
//
// mongoose.connect(<Your URI>, { useNewUrlParser: true, useUnifiedTopology: true }); 



/** # SCHEMAS and MODELS #
/*  ====================== */
const Schema = mongoose.Schema;
const personSchema = new Schema({
  name: { type: String, required: true },
  age: Number,
  favoriteFoods: [String]
});
/** 2) Create a 'Person' Model */

// First of all we need a **Schema**. Each schema maps to a MongoDB collection
// and defines the shape of the documents within that collection. Schemas are
// building block for Models. They can be nested to create complex models,
// but in this case we'll keep things simple. A model allows you to create
// instances of your objects, called **documents**.

// Create a person having this prototype :

// - Person Prototype -
// --------------------
// name : string [required]
// age :  number
// favoriteFoods : array of strings (*)

// Use the mongoose basic *schema types*. If you want you can also add more
// fields, use simple validators like `required` or `unique`, and set
// `default` values. See the [mongoose docs](http://mongoosejs.com/docs/guide.html).

// <Your code here >

const Person = mongoose.model("Person", personSchema);

// **Note**: Glitch is a real server, and in real servers interactions with
// the db are placed in handler functions, to be called when some event happens
// (e.g. someone hits an endpoint on your API). We'll follow the same approach
// in these exercises. The `done()` function is a callback that tells us that
// we can proceed after completing an asynchronous operation such as inserting,
// searching, updating or deleting. It's following the Node convention and
// should be called as `done(null, data)` on success, or `done(err)` on error.
// **Warning** - When interacting with remote services, **errors may occur** !

// - Example -
// var someFunc = function(done) {
//   ... do something (risky) ...
//   if(error) return done(error);
//   done(null, result);
// };

/** # [C]RUD part I - CREATE #
/*  ========================== */

/** 3) Create and Save a Person */

// Create a `document` instance using the `Person` constructor you build before.
// Pass to the constructor an object having the fields `name`, `age`,
// and `favoriteFoods`. Their types must be conformant to the ones in
// the Person `Schema`. Then call the method `document.save()` on the returned
// document instance, passing to it a callback using the Node convention.
// This is a common pattern, all the **CRUD** methods take a callback 
// function like this as the last argument.

// - Example -
// ...


  var p = new Person;
  p.name = "Brian ";
  p.age = 18;
  p.favoriteFoods = ["eggs", "pizza"];
    var createAndSavePerson = function(done){
      p.save(function(err, data){
      if (err){
        return done(err);
      }
      return done(null, data);
    });
  };

I’ve edited your post for readability. When you enter a code block into a forum post, please precede it with a separate line of three backticks and follow it with a separate line of three backticks to make it easier to read.

See this post to find the backtick on your keyboard. The “preformatted text” tool in the editor (</>) will also add backticks around text.

Note: Backticks are not single quotes.
