Issue

MongoDB 7.0 is supported by Mongoose?

[vkarpov15]

Yes, Mongoose 7.4 and up support MongoDB 7.

@vkarpov15 Out of curiosity, why are only Mongoose 7.4 and up compatible with MongoDB 7? MongoDB docs claim that any driver 4.0 or later should work, although some new features may not be supported. That implies Mongoose 6 should be compatible, too.

Do you know if it's sound to use Mongoose 6 with MongoDB 7?

[vkarpov15]

It is, unless you're using some new MongoDB 7 features. Our rationale is that the docs you linked to say that MongoDB Node driver 5.7 is the minimum version you need to fully support MongoDB 7:

And Mongoose 7.4 is the minimum version of Mongoose that uses MongoDB Node driver 5.7:

However, given that you have partial support for MongoDB 7 from MongoDB Node driver 4.0 and up, you should be fine to use Mongoose 6, which uses MongoDB Node driver 4.x.
