What happened to ObjectId? about mongojs HOT 7 CLOSED

var mongojs = require("mongojs")({});
var ObjectId = mongojs.ObjectId;
console.log(mongojs);
var my_objectID = ObjectId("objectidhere");

should work
or with your example

var objectID = require("mongojs")({}).ObjectId("objectidhere");

from mongojs.

Awesome, that worked. This is kind of strange, though. I played around with the objects trying to find ObjectId and I noticed that it was present in an initialized instance of mongojs. I attempted to use that, but was given another issue. I believe it was actually in the ObjectId function, and it was unable to resolve the ObjectId function it was calling. I'm unable to access the computer that this particular issue occurred on at the moment, but that looks to have resolved the issue on another computer. Thank you for your help, and I'll get back to you as soon as possible with the details of that other problem, if it's still present!

Okay, that looks like it completely resolved the issue. Thank you for all of your help!

Woops, looks like I spoke too soon. In the latest version of mongojs, I am getting this error, coming from index.js on line 217:

return new mongodb.BSONNative.ObjectID(id);

TypeError: Cannot read property 'ObjectID' of undefined
    at Object.that.ObjectId (*****/mongojs/index.js:217:32)

This was just working, but I must have been running an outdated, but working version of mongojs. Very frustrating! I am using the code that was suggested above, and this exception happens when I attempt to call the ObjectId function of the database.

This is resolved by changing line 217 to:

return new mongodb.ObjectID(id);

I just made this change locally, and I can create a pull request if necessary, but it would probably just be easier for someone with direct access to change it.

Thank you! This fix was released in 0.6.3.
ObjectId is also exposed directly on the package again:

var mongojs = require('mongojs');
var oid = mongojs.ObjectId(...);

Using mongojs.ObjectId() there is any chance to get a duplicated id?
