MongoDB

DATABASE_URI format should be mongodb://<user>:<pass>@<host>:<port>/<database>

Example:

DATABASE_URI=mongodb://user:pass@localhost:27017/llana

Relations

MongoDb can handle relational data in a few different ways:

Embedded data

Embedded data will be returned in your results when selecting the column data, it will be returned as JSON.

ObjectIds (Matching Column/Table Names)

If your column name matches the referring tables name, we will automatically detect the relationship and you will not need to do anything.

### ObjectIds (Different Column/Table Names)

As we have no way of connecting the data, you would need to maintain the _llana_relation table which is our way of building relational data into non-relational data sources.
