Typescript mismatch between mongodb <Collection> and apollo-datasources-mongodb <Collection>

[JRedded]

I replaced my UserAPI with the one in apollo-datasources-mongodb typescript section, and still got the same error.

---ERROR---

Argument of type 'import("C:/Users/969070/Code/pistachio_develpment/server/node_modules/mongodb/mongodb").Collection<import("C:/Users/969070/Code/pistachio_develpment/server/node_modules/bson/bson").Document>' is not assignable to parameter of type 'import("C:/Users/969070/Code/pistachio_develpment/server/node_modules/apollo-datasource-mongodb/node_modules/@types/mongodb/index").Collection<import("C:/Users/969070/Code/pistachio_develpment/server/node_modules/bson/bson").Document>'. Type 'Collection' is missing the following properties from type 'Collection': geoHaystackSearch, group, parallelCollectionScan, reIndex, savet --- ERROR ---

--- APOLLO SERVER ---

const server : ApolloServer = new ApolloServer({ schema : authorizedSchema
        , dataSources: () => ({  
            users: new Test( mongoClient.db("myapp").collection("users") ) // intellisense highlights the input to new Test as the error
        })
        , context: async ( { req } ) => { await verifyAccessToken( req ) }
        , csrfPrevention: true
    });

It seems that there is a mismatch between the \ from MongoClient and the \ in apollo-datasources-mongodb.

That is the mongodb \ not fitting with the apollo-datasource-mongodb \ type, right?

Am I missing something?

Can somebody please take a moment to say this works in the demo app, and the problem is my deployment?

I have been working on this all day and cannot get any closer. I added the missing parameters to the apollo-datasource-mongodb type and a new error popped up that some other property did not match.

If the error is mine, I will find it, but that looks like the type meant for Collection does not match with Collection. If this is not a mature project, I will go back to Redux.

My guess is different versions of mongodb or @types/mongodb? Here are the versions this package uses:

https://github.com/GraphQLGuide/apollo-datasource-mongodb/blob/6eff2ac8075f553dbb1814199b893e425f2b3908/package.json#L20-L37

The type defs were an external contribution, and we don't have a demo or test for them, but I'd welcome a PR.

MongoDB includes its own types now. There is an NPM warning when adding @types/mongodb
