Connecting to Deno MongoDb in Docker throws uncaught promise (in wsl2) - mongodb

Question

The project runs in Deno.
I'm trying to connect the MongoClient in Deno to a MongoDb container running in Docker.
The docker container is running in wsl2 with the wsl ip 172.18.96.38 and exposing port 27017.
Connecting to it with the following code leads to an error:
import { MongoClient } from "https://deno.land/x/mongo#v0.23.0/mod.ts";
const uri = 'mongodb://admin:admin#172.18.96.38:27017'
this.mClient = new MongoClient();
await this.mClient.connect(uri);
error: Uncaught (in promise) Error: MongoError: "Connection failed: MongoError: {\"ok\":0,\"errmsg\":\"no such command: 'hello'\",\"code\":59,\"codeName\":\"CommandNotFound\"}"
throw new MongoError(`Connection failed: ${e.message || e}`);
^
at MongoClient.connect (https://deno.land/x/mongo#v0.23.0/src/client.ts:26:13)
at async Function.initMongoClient (file:///home/robert/repos/myDenoWebsite/backend/src/utils/mongoClientWrapper.ts:54:9)
According to the errmsg the error is 'no such command: 'hello'.
What does this mean?
This is my docker-compose.yml for mongo btw:
version: '3.8'
services:
mongodb:
image: mongo:4.4-bionic
container_name: my-mongodb
ports:
- 27017:27017
environment:
- MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_USERNAME=admin
- MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_PASSWORD=admin
volumes:
- mongodb:/data/db
- mongoconfig:/data/configdb
volumes:
mongodb:
mongoconfig:

I got a same error, so I found an alternative way
This is my solution
import { MongoClient } from "https://deno.land/x/mongo#v0.29.2/mod.ts";
const conn = async () => {
const client = new MongoClient();
const srv = `mongodb+srv://admin:admin#172.18.96.38:27017/<Your Database>?authMechanism=SCRAM-SHA-1&retryWrites=true&w=majority`
await client.connect(srv);
return client;
}
export const getData = async () => {
const conn = await conn()
