Mongo Memory Server: Property 'getUri' does not exist on type '(opts?: MongoMemoryServerOpts) => Promise<MongoMemoryServer>' - mongodb

Question

I am trying to run e2e tests on a nestjs app.
I have trouble running MongoMemoryServer, in order to run set the MMS I used this article based on the original nestJs documentation.
I keep getting this error:
test/user-preferences.e2e-spec.ts:27:32 - error TS2339: Property 'getUri' does not exist on type '(opts?: MongoMemoryServerOpts) => Promise<MongoMemoryServer>'.
27 const uri = mongod.getUri();

This is the test I try to run:
import { Test, TestingModule } from '#nestjs/testing';
import { getModelToken, MongooseModule } from '#nestjs/mongoose';
import { MongoMemoryServer } from 'mongodb-memory-server';
import {
UserPreferences,
UserPreferencesDocument,
UserPreferencesSchema,
} from './../src/user-preferences/schemas/user-preferences.schema';
import { UserPreferencesModule } from './../src/user-preferences/user-preferences.module';
import * as request from 'supertest';
import { factory } from 'fakingoose';
import { Model } from 'mongoose';
describe('userPreferences controller', () => {
let userPreferencesModel;
let app;
const UserPreferencesFactory = factory<UserPreferencesDocument>(
UserPreferencesSchema,
).setGlobalObjectIdOptions({ tostring: false });
beforeAll(async () => {
const moduleFixture: TestingModule = await Test.createTestingModule({
imports: [
await MongooseModule.forRootAsync({
useFactory: async () => {
const mongod = await MongoMemoryServer.create;
const uri = mongod.getUri();
return {
uri: uri,
};
},
}),
UserPreferencesModule,
],
}).compile();
app = moduleFixture.createNestApplication();
console.log('app: ', app);
userPreferencesModel = moduleFixture.get<Model<UserPreferencesDocument>>(
getModelToken(UserPreferences.name),
);
await app.init();
});
beforeEach(() => {
// populate the DB with 1 UserPreference using fakingoose
const mockUserPreferences = UserPreferencesFactory.generate();
return userPreferencesModel.create(mockUserPreferences);
});
afterEach(() => userPreferencesModel.remove({}));
it('GET /api/v1/user-preferences', () => {
return request(app.getHttpServer())
.get('/api/v1/user-preferences')
.expect(200)
.expect((res) => {
console.log('res: ', res);
expect(res.body.length > 0).toBe(true);
});
});
afterAll(() => {
app.close();
});
});
This is my schema file:
import { Schema, Prop, SchemaFactory } from '#nestjs/mongoose';
import { Document } from 'mongoose';
export enum exitToOptions {
THIS_POST = 'this_post',
ALL_POSTS = 'all_posts',
DASHBOARD = 'dashboard',
}
export type UserPreferencesDocument = UserPreferences & Document;
#Schema()
export class UserPreferences {
#Prop({ unique: true })
eUserId: string;
#Prop()
uiTheme: string;
#Prop()
panelWidth: number;
#Prop()
editingHandles: boolean;
#Prop()
enableLightboxInEditor: boolean;
#Prop()
hiddenElements: boolean;
#Prop()
defaultDeviceView: string;
// #Prop()
// exitTo: exitToOptions
#Prop()
exitTo: string;
}
export const UserPreferencesSchema =
SchemaFactory.createForClass(UserPreferences);
