How to add user in Mongo admin database from NodeJS?

I want to add a super user to admin database from MongoDB using NodeJS. My first try is this:

var Db = require('mongodb').Db,
    MongoClient = require('mongodb').MongoClient,
    Server = require('mongodb').Server;

var db = new Db('admin', new Server('locahost', 27017));

// Establish connection to db
db.open(function(err, db) {
    if (err) { return console.log(err); }

    console.log("Opened database");

    // Add a user to the database
    db.addUser('superuser', '1234', {
        roles: [
            "userAdminAnyDatabase",
            "dbAdminAnyDatabase",
            "clusterAdmin",
            "readWriteAnyDatabase"
        ]   
    }, function(err, result) {
        if (err) { return console.log(err); }
        console.log("Added.");
    });
});

When running the script I got this error:

[Error: failed to connect to [locahost:27017]]

And before this:

How can I fix the script to add the user superuser with password 1234 to admin database from MongoDB?

Your mistake is in this line:

 var db = new Db('admin', new Server('locahost', 27017));

You made a typo. What you mean is localhost.
