Typescript mongoose static model method “Property does not exist on type”

Question

I am currently trying to add a static method to my mongoose schema but I can\'t find the reason why it doesn\'t work this way.

My model:

import * as

I cannot see your IUser interface however I suspect that you have not included the methods in there. EG

export interface IUser {
    email: string,
    hash: string,
    salt: string,

    setPassword(password: string): void,
    validPassword(password: string): boolean,
    generateJwt(): string
}

typescript will then recognize your methods and stop complaining
