Example
# In your config/config.exs file
config :my_app, Repo,
adapter: Mongo.Ecto,
database: "ecto_simple",
username: "mongodb",
password: "mongosb",
hostname: "localhost"
# In your application code
defmodule Repo do
use Ecto.Repo, otp_app: :my_app
end
defmodule Weather do
use Ecto.Model
@primary_key {:id, :binary_id, autogenerate: true}
schema "weather" do
field :city # Defaults to type :string
field :temp_lo, :integer
field :temp_hi, :integer
field :prcp, :float, default: 0.0
end
end
defmodule Simple do
import Ecto.Query
def sample_query do
query = from w in Weather,
where: w.prcp > 0 or is_nil(w.prcp),
select: w
Repo.all(query)
end
end
Usage
Add Mongo.Ecto as a dependency in your mix.exs
file.
def deps do
[{:mongodb_ecto, "~> 0.1"}]
end
You should also update your applications to include both projects.
def application do
[applications: [:logger, :mongodb_ecto, :ecto]]
end
To use the adapter in your repo:
defmodule MyApp.Repo do
use Ecto.Repo,
otp_app: :my_app,
adapter: Mongo.Ecto
end
For additional information on usage please see the documentation for Ecto.
Data Type Mapping
BSON | Ecto |
---|---|
double | :float |
string | :string |
object | :map |
array | {:array, subtype} |
binary data | :binary |
binary data (uuid) | Ecto.UUID |
object id | :binary_id |
boolean | :boolean |
date | Ecto.DateTime |
regular expression | Mongo.Ecto.Regex |
JavaScript | Mongo.Ecto.JavaScript |
symbol | (see below) |
32-bit integer | :integer |
timestamp | BSON.Timestamp |
64-bit integer | :integer |
Symbols are deprecated by the BSON specification. They will be converted to simple strings on reads. There is no possibility of persisting them to the database.
Additionally special values are translated as follows:
BSON | Ecto |
---|---|
null | nil |
min key | :BSON_min |
max key | :BSON_max |
Supported Mongo versions
The adapter and the driver are tested against most recent versions from 3 branches: 2.4.x, 2.6.x, 3.0.x
