docbridge 0.0.1

A thin abstraction layer over BSON documents, to keep your data model agile.

Docbridge

This is an experimental Object-Document Mapping library for MongoDB. You can watch it being developed live on MongoDB's YouTube channel!

Mission Statement

• Managing large amounts of data in MongoDB while keeping a data schema flexible is challenging.
• This ODM is not an active record implementation, mapping documents in the database directly into similar objects in code.
• This ODM is designed to abstract underlying documents, mapping potentially multiple document schemata into a shared object representation.
• It should also simplify the evolution of documents in the database, automatically migrating individual documents' schemas either on-read or on-write.
• There should be "escape hatches" so that unforeseen mappings can be implemented, hiding away the implementation code behind hopefully reuseable components.
