mongorest

This is just a toy module for creating a REST interface to MongoDB which uses jsonschema to validate data before trying to save into MongoDB collection.

Example

This example creates a REST server with the following routes:

• GET /users/<string:id> - return a single document from users as JSON or 204
• PUT /users/<string:id> - PUT a JSON document into users or 400 if data does not validate with the schema
• GET /users - get all documents from users as JSON

from mongorest import Server

app = Server('test', host='my.db.server', port=27017)

users_schema = {'type': 'object',
                'properties': {
				  'name': {'type': 'string'},
				  'age': {'type': 'number',
				          'minimum': 0},
				  'admin': {'type': 'boolean'}},
				'required': ['name', 'age', 'admin']}
app.register_collection('users', users_schema)
app.run()
