version 1.000

SYNOPSIS

  );

DESCRIPTION

This distribution provides a backend for Metabase using MongoDB. There are two modules included, Metabase::Index::MongoDB and Metabase::Archive::MongoDB. They can be used separately or together (see Metabase::Librarian for details).

The Metabase::Backend::MongoDB module is a Moose::Role that provides common attributes and private helpers and is not intended to be used directly.

Common attributes are described further below.

ATTRIBUTES

host

A MongoDB connection string. Defaults to 'mongodb://localhost:27017'.

db_name

A database name. Defaults to 'metabase'. To avoid collision with other Metabase data on the same MongoDB server, users should always explicitly set this to a unique name for a given Metabase installation.

collection_name

A collection name for the archive or table. Defaults to 'metabase_index' or 'metabase_archive'. As long as the db_name is unique, these defaults should be safe to use for most purposes.

username

A username for MongoDB authentication. By default, no username is used.

password

A password for MongoDB authentication. By default, no password is used.

METHODS

connection

This returns the MongoDB::Connection object that is created when the object is instantiated.

coll

This returns the MongoDB::Collection object containing the index or archive data.
