Mongous NPM | npm.io

Mongous

Mongous, for humongous, is a simple and blazing fast MongoDB driver that uses a jQuery like syntax.

How it works

var $ = require("mongous").Mongous;

$("database.collection").save({my:"value"});

$("database.collection").find({},function(r){
	console.log(r);
});

Done. App development has never felt as close to the shell as this! Making it a breeze to grab'n'store anything anywhere in your code without the nasty hassle of connections, collections, and cascading callbacks.

Database & Collections

db('Database.Collection') - Database is the name of your database - Collection is the name of your collection - Examples - db('blog.post') - db('blog.post.body')

Commands

Update db('blog.post').update(find, update, ...) - find is the object you want to find. - update is what you want to update find with. - ... - { upsert: true, multi: false } - true, true
Save db('blog.post').save(what) - what is the object to be updated or created.
Insert db('blog.post').insert(what...) - what is an object to be created. is an array of objects to be created. - Examples - db('blog.post').save({hello: 'world'}) - db('blog.post').save({hello: 'world'}, {foo: 'bar'}) - db('blog.post').save({hello: 'world'}, {foo: 'bar'})
Remove db('blog.post').remove(what, ...) - what is the object to be removed. - ... true for atomic.
Find db('blog.users').find(..., function(reply){ }) - reply is the reply from MongoDB. - reply.documents are the documents that you found from MongoDB. - ... params are filtered by type - Objects - first object is what you want to find. - second object are fields you want Ex: { name: 1, age: 1 } - third object is any of the following options: { lim: x, skip: y, sort:{age: 1} } - Numbers - first number is the limit (return all if not specified) - second number is the skip - Examples - db('blog.users').find(5, function(reply){ }) reply.documents is the first 5 documents, - db('blog.users').find(5, {age: 23}, function(reply){ }) with age of 23, - db('blog.users').find({age: 27}, 5, {name: 1}, function(reply){ }) and a name. - db('blog.users').find(5, {age: 27}, {name: 1}, {lim: 10}, function(reply){ }) is the same as the previous example, except the limit is 10 instead of 5. - db('blog.users').find(5, function(reply){ }, 2) reply.documents skips the first 2 documents and is the next 3 documents. - db('blog.users').find(function(reply){ }, {age: 25}, {}, {limit: 5, skip: 2}) is the same as the previous example except only of doucments with the age of 25. - db('blog.users').find({}, {}, {sort: {age: -1}}, function(reply){ }) reply.documents is sorted by age in a decsending (acsending while it is {age:1} ) order.
Operations db('blog.$cmd').find(command,1) - command is the database operation command you want to perform. - Example db('blog.$cmd').find({drop:"users"},1) drops the users collection, deleting it.
Authentication db('blog.$cmd').auth(username,password,callback) - username, password username and password of the 'blog' database - callback the callback function when authentication is finished. - Example - db('blog.$cmd').auth('user','pass',function(reply){})
Open db().open(host,port) - Only necessary to call if you explicitly want a different host and port, elsewise it lazy opens.
