Embedding the controller

In any controller you want to have mongo connectivity you must include the MongoController.

Add the following import line in source files that will embed MongoController.

 "github.com/Tsuguya/revmgo/app"

Embed the MongoController on your custom controller;

type Application struct {
    *revel.Controller
    revmgo.MongoController
    // Other fields
}

Your controller will now have a MongoSession variable of type *mgo.Session and a Database variable of type *mgo.Database. Use this to query your mongo datastore.

Running sample

revel run github.com/Tsuguya/revmgo/sample
