Interface between mongoDB and the Next Scripting Framework Ingredients: https://github.com/mongodb/mongo https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-c-driver The current version is tested with - MongoDB v2.4.9 - mongodb-c-driver v0.8.1 Compile or obtain mongodb (the database). Compile or obtain the mongo-c-driver (client interface) git clone https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-c-driver cd mongo-c-driver git checkout v0.8.1 make make install Install the mongo-c-driver Assume, Tcl is under /usr/local/ns/lib and the source of the mongo-c-driver is under /usr/local/src/mongo-c-driver/, then configure the nsf interface via the following command from nsf*/library/mongodb/ ./configure --with-tcl=/usr/local/ns/lib --with-nsf=../../ \ --with-mongodb=/usr/local/src/mongo-c-driver/src/,/usr/local/src/mongo-c-driver In order to run the sample script, * first start the mongdb (eg. mongod) * go to your nsf source directory * make sure, the c-driver libraries are on the library path (assuming the the c-driver was installed in /usr/local/lib) export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:`pwd` * run ./nxsh library/mongodb/tests/nsf-mongo.test The script is using the low level interface (nsf::mongo) and has a few insert, query and delete statements, some of these are commented out. * run ./nxsh library/mongodb/example-nx-mongo.tcl This example script is using the higher level object oriented interface for nx (nx::mongo). * Further sample-scripts: ./nxsh library/mongodb/example-nx-bi.tcl ./nxsh library/mongodb/example-nx-reference-one.tcl ./nxsh library/mongodb/example-nx-reference-many.tcl ./nxsh library/mongodb/example-nsf-gridfs.tcl After running the scripts, you should see output like the one below. % /usr/local/bin/mongo MongoDB shell version: 2.4.4-pre- connecting to: test > use tutorial switched to db tutorial > db.persons.find();
