Mongo.Ecto

Mongo.Ecto is a MongoDB adapter for Ecto.

For detailed information read the documentation for the Mongo.Ecto module, or check out examples below.

Example

# In your config/config.exs file
config :my_app, Repo,
  adapter: Mongo.Ecto,
  database: "ecto_simple",
  username: "mongodb",
  password: "mongosb",
  hostname: "localhost"

# In your application code
defmodule Repo do
  use Ecto.Repo, otp_app: :my_app
end

defmodule Weather do
  use Ecto.Model

  @primary_key {:id, :binary_id, autogenerate: true}
  schema "weather" do
    field :city     # Defaults to type :string
    field :temp_lo, :integer
    field :temp_hi, :integer
    field :prcp,    :float, default: 0.0
  end
end

defmodule Simple do
  import Ecto.Query

  def sample_query do
    query = from w in Weather,
          where: w.prcp > 0 or is_nil(w.prcp),
         select: w
    Repo.all(query)
  end
end

Usage

Add :mongodb_ecto as a dependency in your mix.exs file.

def deps do
  [
    {:mongodb_ecto, "~> 1.0.0"}
  ]
end

You should also update your applications to include both projects:

def application do
  [applications: [:logger, :mongodb_ecto, :ecto]]
end

To use the adapter in your repo:

defmodule MyApp.Repo do
  use Ecto.Repo,
    otp_app: :my_app,
    adapter: Mongo.Ecto
end

For additional information on usage please see the documentation for Ecto.

Data Type Mapping

Symbols are deprecated by the BSON specification. They will be converted to simple strings on reads. There is no possibility of persisting them to the database.

Additionally special values are translated as follows:

Supported Mongo versions

The adapter and the driver are tested against most recent versions from 5.0, 6.0, and 7.0.

Migrating to 2.0

Release 2.0 changes the underlying driver from mongodb to mongodb_driver 1.4.0. Calls to the Ecto adapter itself should not require any changes. Some config options are no longer used and can be simply deleted: pool, pool_overflow, pool_timeout.

If you make direct calls to the Mongo driver, you will need to update some of them to account for the mongodb -> mongodb_driver upgrade. Also, remember to replace :mongodb with {:mongodb_driver, "~> 1.4.0"} in your mix.exs. The known updates are:

1. Mongo functions no longer accept a pool option or MyApp.Repo.Pool module argument. Instead, a pool PID is expected:

   # Old driver call
   Mongo.find(MyApp.Repo.Pool, "my_coll", %{"id": id}, projection: %{"field": 1}, pool: db_pool())
   
   # New driver call
   Mongo.find(MyApp.Repo.pool(), "my_coll", %{"id": id}, projection: %{"field": 1})
   
   # repo.ex
   # Provided the following function is defined in MyApp.Repo:
   defmodule MyApp.Repo do
     use Ecto.Repo, otp_app: :my_app, adapter: Mongo.Ecto
   
     def pool() do
       Ecto.Adapter.lookup_meta(__MODULE__).pid
     end
   end
   

2. Mongo.command requires a keyword list instead of a document. E.g., instead of Mongo.command(MyApp.Repo.pool(), %{listCollections: 1}, opts), do Mongo.command(MyApp.Repo.pool(), [listCollections: 1], opts).
3. Mongo.ReadPreferences.defaults is renamed to Mongo.ReadPreference.merge_defaults.
4. When passing a hint to Mongo.find_one etc., if the hinted index does not exist, an error is now returned.

Contributing

To contribute you need to compile Mongo.Ecto from source and test it:

$ git clone https://github.com/ankhers/mongodb_ecto.git
$ cd mongodb_ecto
$ mix test
