Data not inserted into mongodb

I'm on my local Ubunto machine and following a tutorial to learn node/mongodb. Here is the code:

const MongoClient = require('mongodb').MongoClient;

MongoClient.connect('mongodb://localhost:27017/TodoApp', (err, db) => {
  if (err) {
    return console.log('Unable to connect to MongoDB server');
  }
  console.log('Connected to MongoDB server');

  db.collection('Todos').insertOne({
    text: 'Something to do',
    completed: false
  }, (err, result) => {
    if (err) {
      return console.log('Unable to insert todo', err);
    }

    console.log('data inserted');
    console.log(JSON.stringify(result.ops, undefined, 2));
  });

  db.close();
});

My driver version: "mongodb": "^2.2.5" My mongodb version v3.2.20

I can see Connected to MongoDB server is being printed out but I don't get the result json in the terminal, nor the data inserted alert. What is wrong here? How can I fix it?

I think you close connection too early, try to move close() into insertOne callback:

console.log('data inserted');
console.log(JSON.stringify(result.ops, undefined, 2));
db.close();
