FreshDocuments - MongoDB ODM v0.0.3

####FreshDocs makes sure that your documents never get stale

First, an example!

//Get a document
var document = Documents.findById("some object id value")
document.update({title: "A title for out collaborative thing"})

document.on("update", function() {
  //this will log "A better title, for our collaborative thing"          
  console.log(document.get("title"))
})

Meanwhile, someone else...

var document = Documents.findById("some object id value")
document.update({title: "A better title, for our collaborative thing"})

But hey! What about collections!

Right, it wouldn't be very useful if your documents stayed up to date, but not your collections!

Another Example!

var documents = Documents.find({awesome: true})

documents.on("add", function(newDocument) {
  console.log(newDocument.get("title"))
}

Meanwhile

Document.create({title: "An awesome document", awesome: true})

Updated for you like magic!

Validations

So you need to validate your data? Cool, we can do that.

When you're creating a FreshDocument instance, you just pass the validation middleware in with your validations

var Things = FreshDocuments("things", 
                             Validations({ title: 
                                           { length: { between: [4, 100]
                                                     , message: "Invalid length"}}})) 

Blam your titles have to be between 4 and 100 characters

Embedded Documents

Embedding documents is easy with the Embed middleware. var OtherThing = FreshDocuments("others") var Things = FreshDocuments("things", Embed({other: OtherThing}) //one other thing

var Things = FreshDocuments("things", 
                             Embed({others: [OtherThing]}) //many other things

Documentation

Yes, the documentation is pretty bad right now, It'll get updated as soon as the api stabilizes. :-D

Known Problems (that will be fixed)

• It's not super efficient for high numbers of collections (linear search)
• Nothing gets GC'd, yeah...badness
• get and set functions are teh lamez
• buggy and generally inefficient
• The test suite will randomly fail about 1/50 runs, I havent seen this problem when used in actual use

Contributing

Any contributions are welcome, features, ideas, bugs, criticism. I would be especially grateful for feedback on the api.
