angel_mongo

MongoDB-enabled services for the Angel framework.

Installation

Add the following to your pubspec.yaml:

dependencies:
  angel_mongo: ^1.0.0-dev

Usage

This library exposes three main classes: Model, MongoService and MongoTypedService<T>.

Model

Model is class with no real functionality; however, it represents a basic MongoDB document, and your services should host inherited classes.

class User extends Model {
  String username;
  String password;
}

main() async {
    Db db = new Db('mongodb://localhost:27017/local');
    await db.open();
    
    app.use('/api/users', new MongoTypedService<User>(db.collection("users")));
    
    app.service('api/users').afterCreated.listen((event) {
        print("New user: ${event.result}");
    });
}

MongoService

This class interacts with a DbCollection (from mongo_dart) and serializing data to and from Maps.

MongoTypedService

Does the same as above, but serializes to and from a target class using json_god and its support for reflection.

Querying

You can query these services as follows:

/path/to/service?foo=bar

The above will query the database to find records where 'foo' equals 'bar'. Thanks to body_parser, this also works with numbers, and even Maps.

/path/to/service?$sort=createdAt
/path/to/service?$sort.createdAt=1

The former will sort result in ascending order of creation, and so will the latter.

List queried = await MyService.index({r"$query": where.id(new ObjectId.fromHexString("some hex string"})));

And, of course, you can use mongo_dart queries. Just pass it as query within params.

See the tests for more usage examples.
