I'm not sure if I'm not understanding correctly but from reading this it appears mongoose 5 is going to be supported longer than mongoose 6?

Nope, we're discontinuing support for Mongoose 5 on March 1, 2024. We don't have any plan to discontinue support for Mongoose 6 currently.

probably because of
docs/version-support.md
We will continue to ship bug fixes to Mongoose 6 until August 24, 2023.

@vkarpov15 is this intended to only be available on the 6.x branch of the docs? Seems it would be worth having in master as well for discoverability |
|
@alexbevi mongoose currently works by merging the 6.x branch into master often, and this PR has already been merged into master, but the website only really updates if it is urgent or if a version is released (which is not done yet since 6.x merge) |
|
@hasezoey thanks for clarifying. Since this will be available "eventually" that's good enough for me. |
|
@alexbevi just to confirm, these changes are on the 7.x docs now too: https://mongoosejs.com/docs/version-support.html . We regularly merge 6.x back into master. |
|
Thanks for keeping me posted @vkarpov15. It was a bit confusing why it wasn't there yet but @hasezoey cleared that up. |
Fix #13193
Summary
Added a page explaining our support policy for Mongoose versions, including setting an EOL for Mongoose 5. On a related note, also added a page about how to check what Mongoose version you're using.
