Package Exports

mongojs

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (mongojs) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

mongojs

A node.js module for mongodb, that emulates the mongodb API as much as possible. It wraps mongodb-native.
It is available through npm:

npm install mongojs

mongojs is very simple to use:

var db = require('mongojs').connect(databaseURL, [collections]);

Some examples of this could be:

// simple usage for a local db
var db = require('mongojs').connect('mydb', ['mycollection']);

// the db is on a remote server (the port default to mongo)
var db = require('mongojs').connect('example.com/mydb', ['mycollection']);

// we can also provide some credentials
var db = require('mongojs').connect('username:password@example.com/mydb', ['mycollection']);

// connect now, and worry about collections later
var db = require('mongojs').connect('mydb');
var mycollection = db.collection('mycollection');

After we connected we can query or update the database just how we would using the mongo API with the exception that we use a callback
The format for callbacks is always callback(error, value) where error is null if no exception has occured.

// find everything
db.mycollection.find(function(err, docs) {
    // docs is an array of all the documents in mycollection
});

// find everything, but sort by name
db.mycollection.find().sort({name:1}, function(err, docs) {
    // docs is now a sorted array
});

// iterate over all whose level is greater than 90.
db.mycollection.find({level:{$gt:90}}).forEach(function(err, doc) {
    if (!doc) {
        // we visited all docs in the collection
        return;
    }
    // doc is a document in the collection
});

// find all named 'mathias' and increment their level
db.mycollection.update({name:'mathias'}, {$inc:{level:1}}, {multi:true}, function(err) {
    // the update is complete
});

// use the save function to just save a document (the callback is optional for all writes)
db.mycollection.save({created:'just now'});
