Does run mongoskin only with mongodb version 1.4 and older?

Question

I'm trying to understand nodejs, express and mongodb I'm running mongodb v 2.0.6 and latest nodejs and express and trying to connect express application with mongodb through mongoskin. the problem is:

npm ERR! peerinvalid The package mongodb does not satisfy its siblings' peerDependencies requirements!
npm ERR! peerinvalid Peer [email protected] wants mongodb@~1.4

Does it mean that mongoskin can work only with mongodb v 1.4? This version is to old as for me (current is 3)

Answer 1

It's expecting version 1.4 of the MongoDB driver, not the database.

You should remove the 2.0.6 version of the driver, as mongoskin doesn't work with that yet (issue), and install the 1.4 version instead:

$ npm uninstall mongodb
$ npm install mongodb@~1.4 [--save]
$ npm install mongoskin [--save]

(however, I'm not sure if the 1.4 driver works properly with 3.x databases)
