Example for using tesla-mongo-connect

This is a very simple example for how to use mongo-db using the tesla-mongo-connect addon to tesla-microservice.

Running it

To start the application you can either use

• a mongo-db running on localhost (or whatever you change the config to in default.edn). Then you can start the application with lein run

• an embedded mongodb provided by embongo. Start the application with lein embongo run.

What is happening?

The project contains a page, which is dependent on :mongo in tesla-mongo-connect. The page displays the database content and a form to add a document to the collection in the database. If you call http://localhost:8080/example the data is read out of mongo and rendered into the html-response in page.clj:

(mongo/find-checked! (:mongo self) "collection" {})

The form data is processed by the page.clj via POST:

(mongo/update-upserting! mongo "collection" {:_id col}
                             {$push 
                                {(keyword key) value}})
