mongo-hashie¶ ↑

mongo-hashie is a mongodb library that aims to be simple and effective. No need to explicitly define properties. Getters and setters are created through the underlying Mash class from hashie.

$ gem install mongo-hashie

$ class Document < MongoHashie::Base
$ end

Simply add new properties by calling the setter.

Basic CRUD operations

$ document = Document.new(:author => "Oliver Kiessler")
$ document.name = "test attribute"
$ document.save # create
$ puts document._id # Mongo ObjectID String represenation

$ document.name = "simple change"
$ document.save # update

$ document.destroy

$ document2 = Document.create(:author => "Oliver Kiessler", :name => "Great Document Name")

$ Document.destroy_all

Find operations

$ Document.first
$ Document.find("4b3f4bd4c1d7110513000001") # Mongo ObjectID String represenation

$ Document.all
$ Document.all(:author => "Oliver Kiessler")
$ Document.find(:author => "Oliver Kiessler", :name => "Great Document Name")

$ Document.count

Meta Data

$ document1 = Document.create(:author => "Oliver Kiessler", :name => "Great Document Name", :prop1 => "Test")
$ document2 = Document.create(:author => "Oliver Kiessler", :name => "Great Document Name", :prop2 => "Test")
$ document3 = Document.create(:author => "Oliver Kiessler", :name => "Great Document Name", :prop3 => "Test")

$ puts Document.properties_used.inspect

• Fork the project.

• Make your feature addition or bug fix.

• Add tests for it. This is important so I don’t break it in a future version unintentionally.

• Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history. (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)

• Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
