Java EE 7 / CDI Integration for NoSQL databases

This project is an initiative to ease use of some NoSQL database in Java EE projects. Thru CDI it helps getting natives API object to interact with these databases.

Right now only MongoDB integration is provided. We plan to add new database support in the future, when the principle will be validated with MongoDB

Tests

The project provides standalone (able to run without having to install 3rd party software) tests under Junit + Arquillian. By default they are launched in a light Weld container. You can launch them with

mvn clean verify

But you can also launched them under WildFly 8.2.0

mvn clean verify -Pwildfly-test

The first time you’ll launch test with this profile, maven will download WildFly so it will take a lot of time.

MongoDB integration

MongoDB integration provides a way define a MongoDB connection thru @MongoClientDefinition annotation.

It works in the same spirit than Java EE @DataSourceDefinition. You only have to add this annotation on one class of your project. Like this.

@MongoClientDefinition(name = "mongoDef", url = "mongodb://localhost")

public class MyClass {
  ..
}

Right now the configuration relies only Mongo URI as documented in MongoDB java driver doc.

The Integration will provide the corresponding MongoClient bean and shortcuts for DB and DBCollection.

You can use them like this

public class MyClass {

  @Inject
  MongoClient mongoClient;

  @Inject
  @Mongo(db = "testDb")
  DB myDB;

  @Inject
  @Mongo(db = "testDb", collection = "testCollection")
  DBCollection myCollection;
}
