Casbah is an interface for MongoDB designed to provide more flexible access from both Java and Scala. The core focus is on providing a Scala oriented wrapper interface around the Java mongo driver.
For the Scala side, contains series of wrappers and DSL-like functionality for utilizing MongoDB from within Scala. This currently utilises the very Java-oriented Mongo Java driver, and attempts to provide more scala-like functionality on top of it. This has been tested with MongoDB 1.2.x+ and 2.x of the Mongo java driver.
We are constantly adding new functionality, and maintain a detailed Casbah Tutorial.
Please address any questions or problems to the Casbah Mailing List on Google Groups.
For more information about Casbah see the API Docs or Tutorial.
Casbah is separated out into several artifacts:
- casbah-commons
Provides utilities to improve working with Scala and MongoDB together without dependencies on anything but the MongoDB Java Driver and ScalaJ-Collection. This includes Scala Collections 2.8 compatible wrappers for DBList and DBObject as well as type conversion facilities to simplify the use of Scala types with MongoDB (and register your own custom types)
- casbah-query
The Query DSL which provides an internal Scala DSL for querying MongoDB using native, MongoDB syntax operators. This only depends upon Commons and can be used standalone without the rest of Casbah.
- casbah-core
This is the wrappers for interacting directly with MongoDB providing more Scala-like interactions. It depends upon both Commons and Query as well as ScalaTime for use of JodaTime (which we prefer over JDK date but you are welcome to use JDK Dates).
- casbah-gridfs
This provides enhancement wrappers to GridFS including loan pattern support. It is dependent on Core (and by transitive property, Commons & Query as well) but is not included in Core - you must explicitly load if it you want to use GridFS.
For issues with, questions about, or feedback for Casbah, please look into our support channels. Please do not email any of the Casbah developers directly with issues or questions - you're more likely to get an answer on the casbah mailing list or the mongodb-user list on Google Groups.
Think you’ve found a bug? Want to see a new feature in Casbah? Please open a case in our issue management tool, JIRA:
- Create an account and login.
- Navigate to the SCALA project.
- Click Create Issue - Please provide as much information as possible about the issue type and how to reproduce it.
Bug reports in JIRA for all driver projects (i.e. SCALA, JAVA, CSHARP) and the Core Server (i.e. SERVER) project are public.
If you’ve identified a security vulnerability in a driver or any other MongoDB project, please report it according to the instructions here.
