running simple mongodb on c9.io but getting error

    var MongoClient = require('mongodb').MongoClient;
    //basic mongodb code 
    // Connect to the db
    //create a new database called test
    MongoClient.connect("mongodb://localhost:27017/exampleDb", function(err, db) {
      if(err) { return console.dir(err); }

      db.collection('test', function(err, collection){
          if(err) console.log(err);
          else console.log(collection);
      });

      db.collection('test', {w:1}, function(err, collection){
          if(err) console.log(err);
          else console.log(collection);
      });

      db.createCollection('test', function(err, collection){
          if(err) console.log(err);
          else console.log(collection);
      });

      db.createCollection('test', {w:1}, function(err, collection){
          if(err) console.log(err);
          else console.log(collection);
      });

    });

The error being shown is:

          throw err;
          ^
