npm run dev and npm start both fail on TypeError: MongoStore.create is not a function

[maxwellmckinnon]

app.js:76
    store: MongoStore.create({ mongoUrl: process.env.mongoURI }),
                      ^

TypeError: MongoStore.create is not a function

Steps to reproduce

git clone git@github.com:bradtraversy/storybooks.git .
fill in config.env details
npm install
npm run dev # or `npm start` hits the same issue

"connect-mongo": "^3.2.0", is in package.json. So it's not a versioning difference from the known good repo issue.

[maxwellmckinnon]

It looks like it should be MONGO_URI for one thing. But it still doesn't fix the .create is not a function issue. Weird because this looks like the example code using MongoStore.create on their docs. I'm a web noobie and first time javascript / everything else in the web stack so trying to wrestle through this. Great tutorial btw. I commented out the entire store line and have the piece working I'm interested in though (the oauth).

@adilshaik Your recent change a few days ago is what broke it for me: f5fd013

If I use the version of the code before this change, the blocking error goes away and everything seems to work.

I see, you just need to update the packages lock. @adilshaik

[adilshaik]

@maxwellmckinnon As you said to revert the code, I suggest you rather than changing the connect-mongo version of @bradtraversy 's 'package.json', change the code accordingly. @bradtraversy code of connect-mongo doesn't work for the version greater than 4.0.0. I suggest @bradtraversy to merge the #22

[maxwellmckinnon]

To be clear, the merge of #22 is what caused the break. It's a good change, it just needs to include the necessary package updates it needs, test it all out with a fresh git clone and npm install, then make a PR if it works.

//in app.js
//add this :
const MongoStore = require('connect-mongo')(session)

//remove this :
const MongoStore = require('connect-mongo')

//remove this :
store: MongoStore.create({ mongoUrl: process.env.mongoURI }),

//add this :
store: new MongoStore({ mongooseConnection: mongoose.connection }),
