How to get mongodb version from mongoose

Question

Simple, with the mongo cli:

db.version ()

How can I do the same with mongoose? How can I send a custom command?

Try this one, it will give you the verion of both MongoDB and Mongoose

async function run() {
    var admin = new mongoose.mongo.Admin(mongoose.connection.db);
    admin.buildInfo(function (err, info) {
       console.log(`mongodb: ${info.version}`);
       console.log(`mongoose: ${mongoose.version}`);
    });
}

mongoose.connect(process.env.MONGO_URI, {
        useNewUrlParser: true,
        useUnifiedTopology: true
    })
    .then(() => {
        console.log('MongoDB connected');
        run();
    })
    .catch(error => {
        console.log(error);
    });
