This repository holds the source code of Flexmonster Connector for MongoDB applications.
The Flexmonster MongoDB Connector is a special server-side tool intended to help you retrieve the data from a MongoDB database to Flexmonster Pivot. It has to be embedded into a server that accepts requests for the data from Flexmonster and passes them to the Connector. To learn more about the Connector, visit our documentation.
Start by installing the Flexmonster MongoDB Connector as a node module and save it as a dependency in your package.json:
npm instal flexmonster-mongo-connector
Then embed the Connector into your server, set up a connection with your MongoDB database, and define the Connector. Here is an example:
const mongodb = require("mongodb");
const fm_mongo_connector = require("flexmonster-mongo-connector");
let dbo = null;
let _apiReference = null; // it’ll be the Connector instance
mongodb.MongoClient.connect("the connection string to your database", {
useNewUrlParser: true
}, (err, db) => {
if (err)
throw err;
dbo = db.db("your database name");
_apiReference = new fm_mongo_connector.MongoDataAPI();
});`
The next step is handling all the requests sent to your server by Flexmonster. Visit our website to find a detailed tutorial on handling the requests properly.
On the front end, your code should look like the following to get the data from the Connector:
<body>
<div id="pivot"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
new Flexmonster({
container: "#pivot",
componentFolder: "https://cdn.flexmonster.com/",
report: {
dataSource: {
type: "api",
url: "url to your API endpoins",
index: “your collection’s name”
}
}
})
</script>
</body>
The sample project can be found at GitHub.
