Node.js + MongoDB without MongoJS

Question

Question is as you might have guessed from title, if I can use Node.JS with connected to MongoDB, without loaded MongoJS module.

I want to minimize application on maximum, so loading external module will load client. What are other alternatives to MongoJS?

You can directly use the mongodb-native driver without using the MongoJS module which wraps it.

npm install mongodb

See the docs here.

@Mpa4Hu MongoJS is easier to use, but directly using mongodb-native works fine as well.
