WebStorm 11 unrecognized MongoDb (with mongoose) functions

Question

WebStorm gives me a warning of "Unrecognized function or method" on functions like:

• Schema.find() [find() not recognized]
• Schema.aggregate() [aggregate() not recognized]
• Schema.findOneAndUpdate() [findOneAndUpdate() not recognized]

I've tried to Enabling the NodeJs core libraries and to install

• mongodb-DefinitelyType
• mongoose-DefinitelyType
• mongoose-auto-increment-DefinitelyType
• mongoose-deep-populate-DefinitelyType
• mongoose-DefinitelyType
• mongoose-mock-DefinitelyType

under Preferences > JavaScript > Libraries

But this has not solved my problem. Does someone knows a solution?

Answer 2

This is possible solution working for me without any issues.

Moving the relative path out of the require() statement as follows.

const PATH = '../models/';
const User = require(PATH + 'user');

Alternatively

Do not import Schema separately.

Just import mongoose like this

const mongoose = require('mongoose');

and use mongoose.Schema to access Schema
