MongoDB Sample

MongoDB is a NoSQL type, open-source document database. This sample demonstrates the usage of a MongoDB as a data source in WSO2 DSS.

The sample data service MongoDBSample should be deployed using the instructions in Samples Setup section.

A MongoDB server v2.4.x or v2.2.x should be already running in the default port. Create a collection as below in the command shell.

mongo
use mydb
db.createCollection("things")
db.things.insert( { id: 1, name: "Document1" } )

The sample can be run using any SOAP client such as the Tryit tool that comes bundles with WSO2 DSS.

The list of operations used by the data service to carry out the actions are as follows.

mongo_insert: This operation adds a document according to the provided id, name.
mongo_insert_doc: Using this operation you can inserts a document into the 'things' collection:
mongo_find: This operation returns all documents from the collection.
mongo_count: This operation counts and returns the number of all documents in the 'things' collection
mongo_update: This operation sets the name as 'Zack' and the id as the provided value for the document where name is 'Bob'
mongo_remove: This operation removes all the documents from the collection 'things' where id is equal to the given value
mongo_drop: This operation will drop the collection 'things' from the database

Shown below is a sample run of the service using the Tryit tool.
