I am going to connect my project with MongoDB in my local pc not using Vercel.
How should I do?

Hi @shy sparrow. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:

To connect your local project with MongoDB, you can use the following connection string as an example:

datasource db {
  provider = "mongodb"
  url      = "mongodb://USERNAME:PASSWORD@HOST/DATABASE?authSource=admin&retryWrites=true&w=majority"
}

Replace USERNAME, PASSWORD, HOST, and DATABASE with your MongoDB credentials and database details.

Also, since MongoDB is currently in preview, you need to specify the previewFeatures on your generator block:

generator client {
  provider        = "prisma-client-js"
  previewFeatures = ["mongodb"]
}

Please note that this information is extracted from the Vercel template for a fullstack Prisma Next.js blog (https://vercel.com/templates/next.js/fullstack-prisma-nextjs-blog), and it assumes you are using Prisma as your database client. If you are using a different method to connect to MongoDB, the process might be different.

Remember to install all the necessary dependencies and run your project locally. If you encounter any issues, feel free to ask for help or refer to the official MongoDB and Next.js documentation.
