Unexpected token ')' Nodejs with Couchdb

I am using nodejs 14 and couchdb database 3.1.1 I am trying to connect and display list of couchdb databases using nodejs but following error occur

   const NodeCouchDb = require('node-couchdb');`
 
 
    const couch = new NodeCouchDb();
 
    // node-couchdb instance with Memcached
    const MemcacheNode = require('node-couchdb-plugin-memcached');
    const couchWithMemcache = new NodeCouchDb({
      cache: new MemcacheNode
   });
 
    // node-couchdb instance talking to external service
     const couchExternal = new NodeCouchDb({
     host: 'couchdb.external.service',
     protocol: 'https',
     port: 5984
    });
 
    // not admin party
    const couchAuth = new NodeCouchDb({
        auth: {
           user: 'admin',
          pass: 'godhelp'
       }
    });

      couch.listDatabases()
        .then(
           dbs => dbs.map(...), 
            err => {
           // request error occured 
      });

ERROR After Compiled :

        dbs => dbs.map(...), 
                     ^

I think there is a syntax error in your code, but more fundamentally node-couchdb seems to be an inactive library that has not been updated in more than four years. I would recommend using nano, which is the official Apache CouchDB NodeJS library.

Here's a simple NodeJS script (index.js) using nano to list your databases.

const nano = require('nano')(process.env.COUCH_URL)

const main = async function() {
  const response = await nano.db.list()
  console.log(response)
}

main ()

You will need to create an environment variable called COUCH_URL:

export COUCH_URL="http://user:password@localhost:5984"

and then run the script:

node index.js
