mongoose.connect is not a function?

Hi, When I try to connect to my MongoDB database using the mongoose.connect function, I get the error message that this function doesn't exist, even though it does. I've tried various methods to import Mongoose, but none work. Here's the code:

 import { connect } from 'mongoose' import { userModel } from './models/User' const auth = await connect("connect-string") export async function createUser(username:String, password:String) { try { const result = await userModel.create({ username: username, password: password }) console.log(result) } catch (error) { console.log(error) } }

"connect-string" is only changed here
