@brennanMKE nice, thanks!

Can't find IThenable Where does this type come from?

@stevethibault try to use Promise<T>, instead of IThenable<T>.

Also take a look at the typescript code guidelines -> https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript/wiki/Coding-guidelines
e.g. Names -> Do not use "I" as a prefix for interface names.

I can't see what's the intention of that code inside of pre('save', ... - where is that _doc used actually?

Updated working version for pre:

}).pre< IHeroModel>('save', function (next) {
  if (this.isNew) {
    this.createdAt = new Date();
  } else {
    this.modifiedAt = new Date();
  }
  next();
});

I have been constantly receiving the issue mentioned above, seems like a versioning problem

Hello. I fixed it by changing types using original *.ts file for mongoose. By opening the file node_modules/@types/mongoose/index.d.ts you can see all the required types, in the future this will help you find a solution when changing mongoose versions.

findOne(cond?: Object, callback?: (err: any, res: T) => void): mongoose.Query<T> { return this._model.findOne(cond, callback); }
To
findOne(conditions?: any, callback?: (err: any, res: mongoose.Model<T> | null) => void): mongoose.DocumentQuery<T | null, T>;

You can find more examples here: https://github.com/Britskiy/BasicAppArchitecture
I've updated the dependencies and added some functionality.

For anyone stumbling on this gist, be aware that Mongoose team discourages to extend your interfaces from Mongoose.Document :
