For mongodb follow the instructions from the official manual: http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/installation/

Install

npm install diet-mongoose

Example Usage

Mongoose is used in a different way as a plugin because of it's persistent nature. We are actually not making much difference by using it as a plugin.

For now as a plugin it makes the setup slightly more simple. It also makes visible on the plugin list when you launch your app.

index.js

// Require Diet
var server = require('diet')
 
// Require Mongoose
require('mongoose')
 
// Create App
var app = module.app = new server()
 
// Configure Domain
app.domain('http://localhost:8000/')
 
// Plugin Mongoose
app.plugin('diet-mongoose', { database: 'yourDatabase' })
 
// Start HTTP Server
app.start()
 
// Require Schema
require('./blog.js')
 
// Require Router
require('./router.js')
 
// Export App
module.exports = app

blog.js

// Require Mongoose
var mongoose = require('mongoose')
 
// Create a Schema
var blogSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
  title:  String,
  author: String,
  body:   String,
  comments: [{ body: String, date: Date }],
  date: { type: Date, default: Date.now },
  hidden: Boolean,
  meta: {
    votes: Number,
    favs:  Number
  }
})
 
// Export Model
module.exports = mongoose.model('Blog', blogSchema)

router.js

// Require App
var app = module.parent.app
 
// Require Blog Model
var Blog = require('./blog.js')
 
// Show All Posts
app.get('/', function($){
    Blog.find(function(error, posts){
        if(error) throw error
        $.data.posts = posts
        $.json()
    })
})
 
// Find Post by ID
app.get('/post/:id', function($){
    Blog.find({ _id: $.params.id }, function(error, post){
        if(error) throw error
        $.data.post = post || false
        $.json()
    })
})
 
// Save Post
app.post('/save', function($){
    Blog.save($.request.body, function(error, post){
        if(error) throw error
        $.redirect('home')
    })
})
 
// Delete Post by ID
app.get('/delete/:id', function($){
    Blog.remove({ _id: $.params.id }, function(error){
        if(error) throw error
        $.redirect('home')
    })
})

Config

These are the default config options. All of them are optional, but you probably want to change the database at least:

app.plugin('diet-mongoose', {
    database : 'test',
    port	 : '27017',
    host	 : 'localhost',
    protocol : 'mongodb'
})
