TypeError: User is not a constructor

Question

I am trying to save a user to mongodb database using post request as follow, but I got the error TypeError: User is not a function. It\'s a pretty simple set up

Answer 1

// models/user.js
var mongoose = require('mongoose');
var Schema = mongoose.Schema;
var UserSchema = new Schema({
    email: {
        type: String,
        unique: true,
        lowercase: true
},
    password: String
});

var User = mongoose.model('User', UserSchema)
module.exports =  { User } <-- capital 'U'
