MongoDB Depreciated

[darigovresearch]

On installation via snap on a raspberry Pi we get the following error to upgrade MongoDB as the version installed is depreciated.

Not sure if this is an issue for this repository or another one.

Is it possible to set up the snap to install it directly by default?

Would be happy to make a pull request if given guidance on how to do this.

On ARMHF (32 bit) there is no solution. Mongo will never support the WiredTiger engine on 32bit with oplog. So ARMHF is pretty much restricted to Rocket.Cat 1.x series of Releases only.

On 64 bit ARM though -- we will use mmapv1 for AS LONG AS WE CAN to avoid dragging people through database engine migration (big stressful task with risk of data loss).

You can safely ignore the deprecation message -- until 4.x is released AND/IF we're forcing engine migration.

@Sing-Li Thanks for the explanation and the heads up, will join the channel now

If this is a ARMHF issue is it possible to detect this in RocketChat and give a different error explaining why mongo cannot be upgraded?

If so how complex is the error system to set up a different "error" message and point to a post explaining that it can't be updated in ARMHF systems?
