Nextjs + MongoDB question code

Backend Development

So I am trying to use this piece of code here to extract information from MongoDB and pass it down the line from getStaticProps into the rest of the code…

import { managerdb } from "../utils/connect";

export const getStaticProps = async () => {
  const { db } = await managerdb.connect();

  const data = await db
    .collection("parts")
    .find({})
    .sort({})
    .limit(1000)
    .toArray();
  return {
    props: {
      data: JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(data)), // why?
    },
    revalidate: 60,
  };
};

Then… from my utils folder I got something like this:

import { MongoClient } from "mongodb";

const createConnection = () => {
  // let current = null;
  const client = new MongoClient(process.env.MONGODB_URI);

  return async function run() {
    await client.connect();
  };
};

export const managerdb = createConnection();

the .env string is good… but I am getting eror…
TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'startsWith')

Would anybody know what could possibly be wrong?

Look at the example here (pages and lib)

Have connect return the promise and then await it inside getServerSideProps
