Welcome to the forum, and thank you for sharing your hard work on this library!

From the GitHub Readme, it gather that mongodb_driver is a split-off with some different design decisions from the mongodb library.
Do you know how it compares to the other MongoDB-drivers that currently are floating around in the Elixir ecosystem? (mongo, mongodb_erlang, mongodb_client and mongox)

let me say: tempus fugit.

mongox - DEPRECATED
mongo - 0.5.4 December 1, 2015 (docs)
mongodb_erlang - seems not to support op_msg (since 3.6)

Unfortunately, the libraries are not up-to-date regarding the MongoDB server. Since I use the latest version of my projects and therefore want to use the features of the server, I was looking for a suitable driver. Unfortunately I did not find one, so I searched for the best starting point and developed my own driver.

The new version 0.6.0 has been released. Additional features since last announcing (May 4):

• Support for bulk writes (See specs)

• support for driver sessions (See specs)

• support driver transactions (See specs)

• Enhancements

  • refactored writeConcern
  • refactored filter_nils
  • refactored usage of ReadPreference
  • added support for sessions ( ServerSession , SessionPool , Session )
  • added Decimal128 encoder
  • added support for transactions
  • added support for transaction to gridfs and bulk operation
  • added create command (explicitly creating a collection or view)
  • Supports MongoDB versions 3.2, 3.4, 3.6, 4.0, 4.2

Check the documentation for more information:

• Bulk writes
• Sessions and Transactions
• Change streams

I don’t use MongoDB at present. But, just wanted to say, nice work @zookzook. I hope you keep getting traction with this.

Thank you for your feedback! I am always happy when I get some feedback

The new version 0.7.0 has been released:

• support for command monitoring
• support for retryable reads
• support for retryable writes

Enhancements:

• refactored the api of Mongo.limits and Mongo.wire_version
• add support for tracking recovery token from response in a sharded transaction
• new function BSON.ObjectId.decode/1 and BSON.ObjectId.encode/1
• new function Mongo.uuid/1
• refactored event notification system
• refactored the test cases
• now using mtools for a MongoDB deployment in the travis ci environment
• Session.commit_transaction returns now :ok or an error {:error, %Mongo.Error{}}
• support for errorLabels

Announcing a helper library to support using structs instead of bare maps while using the MongoDB-Driver:

Hex.pm
Github
Demo

Features:

• automatic load and dump function
• reflection functions
• type specification
• support for embedding one and many structs
• support for after load function
• support for before dump function
• support for id generation
• support for default values
• support for derived values

The module creates some boilerplate code, so you can use structs for your data. You call load/1 to convert the map from the driver to your struct. To save your struct to MongoDB you call dump/1 before you call insert_one or insert_many.

Check out the docs!

Actually I’m using your driver in production and works well, I have a filtering question that I posted here.

If you’re able to give it a look

thanks

See my answer here.

The driver is now OTP 24 ready. Thanks to aenglisc for replacing the deprecated functions.
