Are there other APIs necessary to define any other driver's API?

Hi Chris and Jesse,

Thanks for the awesome work you guys put up here.

I'm a novice... Are there any other APIs beside the CRUD for whose specs I would have to build in the case of a Julia wrapper?

Thanks! Best, Kevin

Hey Chris and Jesse,

Does this answer the question?

These new MongoDB drivers conform to published specifications.

1. Server Selection - Deciding which server to send database operations to in a MongoDB deployment.
2. Server Discovery and Monitoring - All the logic required to make a MongoDB application highly available.
3. CRUD API - The API for how we Create, Read, Update and Delete data from MongoDB.
4. Authentication - The rules for how to authenticate to MongoDB servers.

So 1 and 2 are complete (thank you), 3 partially, with 4 to be done entirely? Any other besides these?

Thanks!

A driver that wraps the C Driver 1.2 gets 1, 2, and 4 for free. Your user
gives you a "mongodb://" URI that expresses all the options for connecting
to the server or servers, and the C driver does the rest including
authentication. You just need to implement #3 in terms of the C Driver's
mongoc_bulk_operation_t. See the mongorover code for guidance.

Thank you

Hi Jesse. So is this the only implementation I need to wrap? https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-c-driver/blob/master/src/mongoc/mongoc-bulk-operation.c Thanks so much for your help

Sorry for the late reply: I don't get any notifications for this repo.
This is what the PHP (another driver that wraps the C driver) does. It was recommended to me to do the same. I wouldn't necessarily say that it is the only implementation you need to wrap, but I would bet it would cover the majority of your use cases.

Hi @christopherjwang! Thanks for the advice.
