MongoStore.create({}) options 'client' and 'clientPromise' not compatible with Mongoose version 6

• I’m submitting a … [x] bug report [ ] feature request [ ] question about the decisions made in the repository [ ] question about how to use this project

• Summary Mongoose has been updated to version 6. When using client or clientPromise in MongoStore.create({ }), sessions are no longer saved to database.

• Other information (e.g. detailed explanation, stack traces, related issues, suggestions how to fix, links for us to have context, eg. StackOverflow, personal fork, etc.)

This example demonstrates how it’s done with Mongoose 6 https://github.com/jdesboeufs/connect-mongo/blob/master/example/mongoose.js . Though I prefer a bit simpler approach (one that’s also closer to what was there with previous versions):

...
store: MongoStore.create({
    client: mongoose.connection.getClient(),
...

this works for me

const MongoStore = require('connect-mongo');

=================Main Code=============================

 const store = MongoStore.create({
    mongoUrl: dbUrl,
    secret: 'thisshouldbeabettersecret',
    touchAfter: 24 * 60 * 60
})

================= End Main Code=============================

store.on('error', function(e){
    console.log('Session Store Error', e)
})

const sessionConfig = {
    store,
    // change your default name
    name: 'session',
    secret: 'thisshouldbeabettersecret!', 
    resave: false, 
    saveUninitialized: true,
    cookie:{
        httpOnly: true,
        // don't use this on development it's break thing
        // secure: true,
        expires: Date.now() + 1000 * 60 * 60  * 24 * 7,
        maxAge: 1000 * 60 * 60  * 24 * 7
    }
}
app.use(session(sessionConfig))
