Scooter is an asynchronous (non-blocking) MongoDB driver for the JVM, written in Scala.
Outside of being an async driver, Scooter is also an implementation of the MongoDB Wire Protocol and the BSON Specification that is designed in proper OO fashion and is performant. Scooter, unlike other JVM drivers does not wrap the MongoDB Java driver, and thusly has a different API and feature set. The goal is to be the easiest to use and fastest MongoDB driver on the JVM.
- A DSL for creating MongoDB queries outside of the normal hash-syntax.
- An Object Document Mapper (ODM)
- A JVM higher than version 7 (OpenJDK or Oracle)
- Netty 4
Since Scooter has a dependency on Scala 2.10 and Netty 4, those must first be released before this goes to production. Our hope is late 2012/early 2013.
