Minimum mongoose version

[NelsonFrancisco]

I have mongoose 5.9.26 with mongoose-tsgen 6.0.10 but they seem incompatible. Typescript version is "4.6.3"

I think I'm following the dependency guideline at https://github.com/francescov1/mongoose-tsgen#mongoose-version

It generates the output mongoose.gen.ts file just fine

But I get some typescript errors when I run tsc

Here they are

src/interfaces/mongoose.gen.ts:4834:16 - error TS2665: Invalid module name in augmentation. Module 'mongoose' resolves to an untyped module at '/home/aldrich/workspace/chaser/models/node_modules/mongoose/index.js', which cannot be augmented.

Found 7 errors in the same file, starting at: src/interfaces/mongoose.gen.ts

Here's my tsconfig.ts json:

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "target": "es6",
    "module": "commonjs",
    "rootDir": "./",
    "esModuleInterop": true,
    "forceConsistentCasingInFileNames": true,
    "moduleResolution": "node",
    "outDir": "./dist",
    "baseUrl": "./",
    "declaration": true,
    "resolveJsonModule": true
  },
  "exclude": ["tests", "jest.config.js"]
}

So, I'm I doing something wrong?

Hmm older versions of Mongoose are not well tested anymore (there's simply too many combinations to keep up).

Couple things to verify/try:

• Ensure you have @types/mongoose installed (this is needed for older versions of Mongoose)
• Try to increase your Mongoose version to 5.10.X

[NelsonFrancisco]

Yeah.

Looks like version 5.9.X isn't compatible

Thanks

Good to know, sorry this wasnt more clear!
