mongospawn 0.5.1

Spawn MongoDB resources from JSON Schema

mongospawn is a tool to help spawn MongoDB resources given JSON Schema specifications.

The primary near-term use case is support for the National Microbiome Data Collaborative (NMDC) pilot project. In particular, given a JSON Schema with all array-typed properties and with each array item a $ref reference to one of the JSON Schema definitions (see NMDC example), mongospawn can generate MongoDB $jsonSchema documents to apply as validators for collections in a database that correspond to each of the original JSON Schema's array-typed properties. MongoDB's implementation of JSON Schema does not support $ref, definitions, etc., so mongospawn expands references to generate appropriate per-collection schema documents.

In addition to generating derived schema documents, mongospawn can spawn new databases/collections, with schema validation set, via the pymongo driver, and can also manage access to the spawned resources via mongogrant.
