title: Typescript for passportjs
body: <p>I'm very new to typescript. The idea sounds great and so I want to give it a try and port existing javascript code to typescript. The project I want to port uses nodejs/expressjs and mongoose at the backend and for the frontend angularjs with angularui. </p>
  
  <p>Angular, Node/Express, jQuery and many other npm packages can be found at the <a href="https://github.com/borisyankov/DefinitelyTyped" rel="nofollow">DefinitelyTyped repo</a> or <a href="https://github.com/soywiz/typescript-node-definitions" rel="nofollow">typescript-node-definitions repo</a>
  For Mongoose there are several definition files out there. I need to figure out which one to use. </p>
  
  <p>The only two npm packages I can not find are <a href="http://passportjs.org/" rel="nofollow">passportjs</a> and <a href="https://github.com/kcbanner/connect-mongo" rel="nofollow">connect-mongodb</a> (I use it for session storage)</p>
  
  <p>The definitions for connect-mongodb are not very important since I use it only in one place, but the passportjs definitions would be really helpful. Do you know where I can find them? Or are there no definitions for passportjs?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks
