I can't seem to connect my app container to the mongodb container



here is the mongo class inside my app



public BaseDao(string dbName)
{
m_mongoClient = new MongoClient("mongodb://localhost:27017");
m_mongoDb = m_mongoClient.GetDatabase(dbName);
}


here is my docker-compose



version: '3.4'

services:
app:
image: vinnie_app:latest
depends_on:
- 'mongodb'
mongodb:
image: mongo:latest
container_name: "mongodb"
ports:
- 27017:27017


and my docker-compose.override



version: '3.4'

services:
app:
build: ./app
environment:
- ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT=Staging
- NODE_ENV=staging
- ASPNETCORE_URLS=http://*:50000
- MONGODB_URI='mongodb://mongo:27017/'
ports:
- 50000:50000


I get a 500 error when I try to fetch stuff from the database from the app container. What's the error and how do I connect my app container to the mongodb?? I run the containerized app at http://192.168.99.100:50000/

          this line should instead read the URI from MONGODB_URI environment variable.
