= sinatra-mongo

Extends Sinatra with an extension method for dealing with monogodb using the ruby driver.


Install it with gem:

    $ gem install sinatra-mongo

Now we can use it an example application.

    require 'sinatra'
    require 'sinatra/mongo'
    
    # Specify the database to use. Defaults to mongo://localhost:27017/default,
    # so you will almost definitely want to change this.
    #
    # Alternatively, you can specify the MONGO_URL as an environment variable
    set :mongo, 'mongo://localhost:27017/sinatra-mongo-example'
    
    # At this point, you can access the Mongo::Database object using the 'mongo' helper:
    
    puts mongo["testCollection"].insert {"name" => "MongoDB", "type" => "database", "count" => 1, "info" => {"x" => 203, "y" => '102'}}
    
    get '/' do
      mongo["testCollection"].find_one
    end

If you need to use authentication, you can specify this in the mongo uri:

    set :mongo, 'mongo://myuser:mypass@localhost:27017/sinatra-mongo-example'

== Note on Patches/Pull Requests
 
* 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.
