"cursor.toArray is not a function""collection.find() accepts at most two arguments""unhandled promise rejections are deprecated" while using .find()

Question

I am new to node js and currently i am practicing mongoDB via mongoose 6.0. Here i am getting this error on find method while trying to search the database:

There was an error

while trying to read from the database using collection.find() method.

const mongoose = require('mongoose');

mongoose.connect("mongodb://localhost:27017/fruitsDB", {useNewUrlParser: true})

const fruitSchema = new mongoose.Schema ({
  name: String,
  rating: Number,
  review: String
});

const Fruit = mongoose.model("Fruit", fruitSchema); //creates collection

const fruit= new Fruit({
  name: "Apple",
  rating: 7,
  review: "good"
});

const kiwi= new Fruit({
  name: "kiwi",
  rating: 7,
  review: "good"
});

const banana= new Fruit({
  name: "banana",
  rating: 7,
  review: "good"
});

// Fruit.insertMany([kiwi,banana],function(err){
//   if (err){
//     console.log(err);
//   }
//   else{
//     console.log("Successfully inserted");
//   }
// })
//

Fruit.find(function(err, fruits){ //shows error right here
  if(err){
    console.log("There was an error");
    console.log(err);
  }else{
    console.log(fruits);
  }
}); 

i even tried downgrading the mongoose version but it still showed the same error. The insertion works fine as i practiced it first and later on added that "find" method.

Try installing Version 5.13.8 of mongoose. I had the same problem with 6.0.1
