The MongoDB Node.js team is pleased to announce a beta version v4.0.0-beta.0 of the driver.
A major motivation for releasing this beta was the migration of the entire code base to TypeScript. While we took special care to ensure a smooth transition, we imagine such a dramatic change might reveal unexpected issues. This beta release makes it easy to easily check compatibility with your application and make use of the included type definitions.
Additionally, we are publishing an early version of the new API documentation https://mongodb.github.io/node-mongodb-native/4.0.
You can take a look at the raw updates list in our HISTORY.md file, we are intending to do a complete rundown of features and fixes with the v4.0.0 release.
You can give it a try with:
npm install mongodb@betaIf you have any suggestions about clarifying documentation or if you run into any issues or have any feature ideas please let us know! You can make an account and submit tickets to our JIRA project here.
