TypeError: AdminJSExpress.buildAuthenticatedRouter is not a function

[dickorydock]

I've tried implementing the example of an authenticated router provided here but I am running into an error message.

I have changed to use my DB_URI and I am able to access DB_URI both locally and remotely on my fly.io app, but in both cases I run into this error:

  const adminRouter = AdminJSExpress.buildAuthenticatedRouter(
                                     ^

TypeError: AdminJSExpress.buildAuthenticatedRouter is not a function
    at start (etc)

Here is the code I am running, based off that adminjsexpress example:

import AdminJS from 'adminjs'
import * as AdminJSExpress from '@adminjs/express'
import express from 'express'
import Connect from 'connect-pg-simple'
import session from 'express-session'
// import  from 'express-session'
import * as dotenv from 'dotenv' // see https://github.com/motdotla/dotenv#how-do-i-use-dotenv-with-import
dotenv.config()

const PORT = 3000

const DEFAULT_ADMIN = {
  email: 'admin@example.com',
  password: 'password',
}

const authenticate = async (email, password) => {
  if (email === DEFAULT_ADMIN.email && password === DEFAULT_ADMIN.password) {
    return Promise.resolve(DEFAULT_ADMIN)
  }
  return null
}
console.log("hi");
console.log(process.env.DB_URI);
const start = async () => {
  const app = express()

  const admin = new AdminJS({})

  const ConnectSession = Connect(session)
  const sessionStore = new ConnectSession({
    conObject: {
      connectionString: process.env.DB_URI,
      ssl: process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production',
    },
    tableName: 'session',
    createTableIfMissing: true,
  })

  const adminRouter = AdminJSExpress.buildAuthenticatedRouter(
    admin,
    {
      authenticate,
      cookieName: 'adminjs',
      cookiePassword: 'sessionsecret',
    },
    null,
    {
      store: sessionStore,
      resave: true,
      saveUninitialized: true,
      secret: 'sessionsecret',
      cookie: {
        httpOnly: process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production',
        secure: process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production',
      },
      name: 'adminjs',
    }
  )
  app.use(admin.options.rootPath, adminRouter)

  app.listen(PORT, () => {
    console.log(`AdminJS started on http://localhost:${PORT}${admin.options.rootPath}`)
  })
}

start()

I am having the exact same issue. Any help?

Change:

import * as AdminJSExpress from '@adminjs/express'

to

import AdminJSExpress from '@adminjs/express'

This was updated only in one snippet of the docs, I'll fix it later.

Just as a FYI, you should update the import in https://docs.adminjs.co/installation/plugins/express too. It looks me a while to track down why the base example was not compiling
