    Your update query should look like this:

    You may want to find by _id and update at the same time:

    const customersData = {name: "test name", age: 24}

Customer.findByIdAndUpdate(_id, customersData)

    Use Model.findOneAndUpdate().

    https://mongoosejs.com/docs/tutorials/findoneandupdate.html

    // update customer
const updateCustomer = (_id, customer) => {
  Customer.findOneAndUpdate({ _id }, customer).then((customer) => {
    console.info("Customer Updated");
    db.close();
  });
};

    From what I’m seeing in that library Customer.update() is not exposed as a standalone function but instead there’s the identifier updateCustomer one can call…

    const updateCustomer = (_id, customer) => {
  Customer.update(_id , customer).then((customer) => {
    console.info("Customer Updated");
    db.close();
  });
};

    So use it directly like this…

    updateCustomer(_id, customer);
