mongoose in closer is assigned incorrectly. Line 5 shoould be:

this.mongoose = mongoose = mongoose || require('mongoose');

or even just like this:

mongoose = mongoose || require('mongoose');

Wouldn't it be easier to use async.forEachOf to iterate all keys in the object instead of using underscore?

async.forEachOf(mongoose.connection.collections, function(collection, collectionName, done) {
// drop-collection-code
});

That way, you wouldn't need the underscore dependency at all
