Delete request in mongodb using _id with nodejs
deleting a row in mongodb doesn't seem to be as easy as it is in SQL lol, but the problem is that I cannot delete the _id row because the _id contains obj ObjectId
that the row is in dB,
{
"_id" : ObjectId("541ec60e41b46b841adde31e"),
"name" : "TT"
}
and this is how i try to remove it,
db.books.remove({ _id: book_id}, function(err, delete) {
if(err)
console.log("ERROR!", err);
console.log("deleted ", delete);
});
I dont know how to pass book_id
so that the request runs as expected, hopefully you guys can help me find a solution for this. thank!

var {MongoClient,ObjectID} = require('mongodb');
var url = 'mongodb://localhost:27017/test';
MongoClient.connect(url, function(err, db) {
if(err!=null){
return console.log(err.message)
}
db.collection("App").deleteOne({_id:ObjectID('59c3dfa6d11caa3360af91cc')}, function (err,data) {
if(err!=null){
return console.log(err)
}
console.log(data);
});
});
