NodeJS 20 Deprecation Warning DEP0170

[DABH]

Yeah, so like I mentioned above, I think we need someone from the community to help us get #223 working. If anyone can make that PR pass the tests, it will fix this issue for everyone going forwards. Let me know if anyone is willing to take this on - it would obviously be a huge help and greatly appreciated!

[DABH]

Absolutely! Thanks @Sakibdevlekar for volunteering to investigate. If you happen to reproduce and fix this issue, please feel free to tag me for review in a PR! 🙏

[DABH]

Open to PRs that would help address/fix this issue, if you're up for investigating a bit further as to why we're getting this error. Unsure if we need to change the URL being generated, or if we can do things differently with Node so that it doesn't complain about this URL type.

It's possible this is related to our need to do a major version upgrade of the mongodb package, see #223 which is currently failing. If you (or anyone else) would like to volunteer to help get that working, it would be a fantastic help and would help continue the useful life of this transport.

Confirming that this is happening with increased frequency. Had this confirmed with Atlas DB support. Node version 20, all the latest NPM packages as of this writing. Below output with --trace-deprecation flag turned on.

(node:30480) [DEP0170] DeprecationWarning: The URL mongodb://user:[email protected]:27017,ac-mrbfemw-shard-00-01.xpoqxtm.mongodb.net:27017,ac-mrbfemw-shard-00-02.xpoqxtm.mongodb.net:27017/?authSource=admin&replicaSet=atlas-cu6uf5-shard-0&retryWrites=true&w=majority&ssl=true is invalid. Future versions of Node.js will throw an error.

From Atlas DB engineers:
The warning is coming from winston-mongodb which has a dependency on mongodb: ^3.6.2.
The 3.x driver did make use of the deprecated API

Hello David, thank you for your response. I am a relatively beginner with Node, so I know enough to be dangerous but not sufficiently to help in the requested capacity. What I commit to do is that if somebody steps up to help, I will provide funding for this project.

[DABH]

Sponsorship would enable me to take a stab at this! :) https://github.com/sponsors/DABH But very open in the meantime if someone in the community wants to volunteer.
