So i'm a bit conflicted. I want a quality driver/library to access that is also Schemaless, but it seems the only active MongoDB library for Nodejs is Mongoose.
Now, Mongoose is great and all, but again.. it's a Schema based library, and i don't want to use one with Mongo for this project.
So, the options i have found that fit my criteria (not Mongoose) are as follows..
- Mongodb Native
- Probably the most widely used option, and the foundation for other libraries, but not the most friendly. The deeply nested callbacks can quickly become ugly, im my opinion.
- MongoSkin
- This is a decent option, and it appears to allow a lot of access to normal Mongo constructs, but at the same time it is poorly documented and not all that active.
- Mongolian
- My personal preference.. but it lacks access to much of Mongo's constructs, and the project seems nearly dead.. It's basically had no activity in a year.
- Mongojs
- Likely the most recently active between the three wrappers, but it lacks GridFS support (that i see).
Are there any other options i am missing?
edit: Adding other libs to the list..
