How to solve TypeError: person.save is not a function - what is wrong?

Person Model:

const mongoose = require('mongoose');

const personSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
    name: {
        type: String,
        required: true,
        trim: true,
        minLength: 3
    }
});

const Person = mongoose.model('person', personSchema);
module.exports = Person;

Sever.js

const express = require('express');
const mongoose = require('mongoose')
let Person = require('./model/Person')

mongoose.connect(process.env.DATABAS_URL,
{ useNewUrlParser: true, useUnifiedTopology: true }, 
() => {
    console.log('DB Ok!')
})

const app = express();

app.use(express.json());

app.post('/add', async (req, res) => {
    const person = new Person({ name: req.body.name })
    console.log('/add route');
    console.log(req.body);
    try {
        console.log(`try`);
        const newPerson = await person.seve();
        res.json(newPerson);
        console.log(`end try:  ${newPerson}`)
    } catch (err) {
        res.status(500).json({"err" : err});
        console.log(`catch: ${err}`);

    }
});


const PORT = process.env.PORT || 3000;
app.listen(PORT, () => console.log(`Server run on port ${PORT}`));

and here is my console:

Server run on port 3000
DB Ok!
/add route
{ name: 'Mohsen Rasouli'}
try
catch: TypeError: person.seve is not a function

and Postman App return:

{
    "err": {}
}

so... I don't now where is the problem and how can I solve it? I'm new with express and mongoose.

Answer 1

const newPerson = await person.save();

Answer 2

Try to use method save instead seve.
