NAME

Catmandu::Store::MongoDB - A searchable store backed by MongoDB

SYNOPSIS

# On the command line
$ catmandu import -v JSON --multiline 1 to MongoDB --database_name bibliography --bag books < books.json
$ catmandu export MongoDB --database_name bibliography --bag books to YAML
$ catmandu count MongoDB --database_name bibliography --bag books --query '{"PublicationYear": "1937"}'
$ catmandu count MongoDB --database_name bibliography --bag books --query '{"Author": "Jones"}' --sort '{"PublicationYear":1}'

# In perl
use Catmandu::Store::MongoDB;

my $store = Catmandu::Store::MongoDB->new(database_name => 'test');

my $obj1 = $store->bag->add({ name => 'Patrick' });

printf "obj1 stored as %s\n" , $obj1->{_id};

# Force an id in the store
my $obj2 = $store->bag->add({ _id => 'test123' , name => 'Nicolas' });

my $obj3 = $store->bag->get('test123');

$store->bag->delete('test123');

$store->bag->delete_all;

# All bags are iterators
$store->bag->each(sub { ... });
$store->bag->take(10)->each(sub { ... });

# Search
my $hits = $store->bag->search(query => '{"name":"Patrick"}');
my $hits = $store->bag->search(query => '{"name":"Patrick"}' , sort => { age => -1} );
my $hits = $store->bag->search(query => {name => "Patrick"} , start => 0 , limit => 100);
my $hits = $store->bag->search(query => {name => "Patrick"} , fields => {_id => 0, name => 1});

my $next_page = $hits->next_page;
my $hits = $store->bag->search(query => '{"name":"Patrick"}' , page => $next_page);

my $iterator = $store->bag->searcher(query => {name => "Patrick"});
my $iterator = $store->bag->searcher(query => {name => "Patrick"}, fields => {_id => 0, name => 1});

# Catmandu::Store::MongoDB supports CQL...
my $hits = $store->bag->search(cql_query => 'name any "Patrick"');

DESCRIPTION

A Catmandu::Store::MongoDB is a Perl package that can store data into MongoDB databases. The database as a whole is called a 'store'. Databases also have compartments (e.g. tables) called Catmandu::Bag-s.

CONFIGURATION

database_name

MongoDB database name.

estimate_count

Use a faster estimated collection document count if true.

All other options are passed on to the MongoDB client.

METHODS

new(database_name => $name, %connection_opts)

new(database_name => $name , bags => { data => { cql_mapping => $cql_mapping } })

Create a new Catmandu::Store::MongoDB store with name $name. Optionally provide connection parameters (see MongoDB::MongoClient for possible options).

The store supports CQL searches when a cql_mapping is provided. This hash contains a translation of CQL fields into MongoDB searchable fields.

# Example mapping
$cql_mapping = {
    indexes => {
         title => {
           op => {
             'any'   => 1 ,
             'all'   => 1 ,
             '='     => 1 ,
             '<>'    => 1 ,
             'exact' => {field => [qw(mytitle.exact myalttitle.exact)]}
           } ,
           sort  => 1,
           field => 'mytitle',
           cb    => ['Biblio::Search', 'normalize_title']
         }
   }
}

The CQL mapping above will support for the 'title' field the CQL operators: any, all, =, <> and exact.

The 'title' field will be mapped into the MongoDB field 'mytitle', except for the 'exact' operator. In case of 'exact' both the 'mytitle.exact' and 'myalttitle.exact' fields will be searched.

The CQL mapping allows for sorting on the 'title' field. If, for instance, we would like to use a special MongoDB field for sorting we could have written "sort => { field => 'mytitle.sort' }".

The CQL has an optional callback field 'cb' which contains a reference to subroutines to rewrite or augment the search query. In this case, in the Biblio::Search package contains a normalize_title subroutine which returns a string or an ARRAY of string with augmented title(s). E.g.

package Biblio::Search;

sub normalize_title {
   my ($self,$title) = @_;
   # delete all bad characters
   my $new_title =~ s{[^A-Z0-9]+}{}g;
   $new_title;
}

1;

bag($name)

Create or retieve a bag with name $name. Returns a Catmandu::Bag.

client

Return the MongoDB::MongoClient instance.

database

Return a MongoDB::Database instance.

drop

Delete the store and all it's bags.

transaction(\&sub)

Execute $sub within a transaction. See Catmandu::Transactional.

Note that only MongoDB databases with feature compatibility >= 4.0 and in a replica set have support for transactions. See https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/command/setFeatureCompatibilityVersion/#view-fcv and https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/tutorial/convert-standalone-to-replica-set/ for more info.

Search

Search the database: see Catmandu::Searchable and Catmandu::CQLSearchable. This module supports an additional search parameter:

- fields => { <field> => <0|1> } : limit fields to return from a query (see L<MongoDB Tutorial|https://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/project-fields-from-query-results/>)
