# Database Commands
Database commands allow you to perform a wide range of diagnostic and administrative
tasks with the Node.js driver. For example, the
[dbStats](https://docs.mongodb.org/manual/reference/command/dbStats/) command returns
storage statistics for a given database. Use the ``command`` function to access
database commands.
```js
// set up a command function
function getDbStats(db, callback) {
db.command({'dbStats': 1}, function(err, results) {
console.log(results);
callback();
});
};
// use the function
{{% myproject-connect %}}
getDbStats(db, function() {
client.close();
});
});
```
For a complete list of database commands, see the [manual](https://docs.mongodb.org/manual/reference/command/).
