Introduction
MongoDB is a NoSQL type, open-source document database. This sample demonstrates the usage of a MongoDB as a data source in WSO2 DSS.
Building the sample
The sample data service MongoDBSample should be deployed using the instructions in Deploying Data Services section.
Prerequisites
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" } )
Running the sample
The sample can be run using any SOAP client such as the "Try-It" tool that comes bundles with WSO2 DSS.
