After installing mongoose module, you can check your mongoose version in command prompt using the command.npm version mongoose
npm version mongoose
After that, you can create a folder and add a file, for example index.js. To run this file you need to run the following command.node index.js
node index.js
Filename: index.js
const mongoose = require('mongoose');  // Database Connectionmongoose.connect('mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017/geeksforgeeks', {    useNewUrlParser: true,    useCreateIndex: true,    useUnifiedTopology: true});  // User modelconst User = mongoose.model('User', {    name: { type: String },    age: { type: Number }});  User.where('age').gte(5).lte(200)        .exec(function (err, result) {    if (err){        console.log(err)    }else{        console.log("Result :", result)     }});

Steps to run the program:
The project structure will look like this:Make sure you have installed mongoose module using following command:npm install mongooseBelow is the sample data in the database before the function is executed, You can use any GUI tool or terminal to see the database, like we have used Robo3T GUI tool as shown below:Run index.js file using below command:node index.js
