| ▼Tutorial | These pages will attempt to guide one through the libmongo-client library, starting from the basic BSON building blocks, through the low level wire protocol API, until the highest level synchronous API |
| ▼Working with BSON objects | In this section, we'll cover the basics of working with BSON objects in a few big steps |
| Building BSON objects | Our first task will be to build a BSON document, which we can later insert into MongoDB |
| Traversing BSON objects | Now that we can build BSON objects (see the previous section), it is time that we learn how to find things in them! |
| ▼Working with the Mongo Sync API | In this section we'll be going over various parts of the synchronous API provided by libmongo-client |
| Connecting to MongoDB | The next step in our journey is to connect to MongoDB: to a single server and to a replicaset alike |
| Inserting documents into MongoDB | Now that we know how to connect, it is time to take another step forward, and put something into our database |
| Querying documents | We can connect, insert, and we still vaguely remember how to build BSON objects: how about we go out and query the database this time? |
| Querying documents, part two | We learned how to make simple queries in the previous section, we'll be brave and do something much more advanced this time: we'll limit the query to documents that have their "yes?" field set to FALSE, and sort the results by the "n" field, in ascending order |
| Creating collections | In this simple example we'll learn how to explicitly create collections with the library, be those normal collections, capped ones or simply preallocated |
| Creating indexes | This example will show how to properly create indexes, how to verify its success, and will also give hints on how to prepare the BSON used to create the index |
| Running custom commands | Sometimes it is necessary to run custom commands against a database, commands for which the library does not provide a convenience wrapper for |
| A full-blown application | As the next step of our tutorial, we will write a full blown application |
| JSON to BSON converter | Now that we have a basic grasp of the library, we'll write a solution to a real life problem: converting JSON to BSON |
