Model.find() returning null json object in mongoose (mongodb) on node

Question

Here's the relevant code:

app.get('/all', function(req,res) {
  Party.find({},[],function(p) {
    console.log(p);
  });

  res.redirect('/');
});

should return all collections from the database - returns null in the console.

var mongoose = require('mongoose');
var db = mongoose.connect('mongodb://localhost/impromptu');
var Schema = mongoose.Schema, ObjectId = Schema.ObjectId;

general stuff about initialization

var PartySchema = new Schema({
what    : String,
when    : String,
where   : String
});

mongoose.model('Party',PartySchema);

// Models

var Party = db.model('Party');

schema

I have everything else for it setup properly, I can save collections just fine, can't retrieve all for some reason...

Checked /var/log/mongodb.log and it is indeed connecting.

Any ideas?

Assuming you're using mongoose after v1.0 that null is the err argument to your callback (there are two ... first the error then the results) ... Try this:

Party.find({},[],function(err,p) {
  console.log(p);
});
