MongoDB session store for Connect

connect-mongo supports only connect >= 1.0.3.

via npm:

$ npm install connect-mongo

• db Database name
• collection Collection (optional, default: sessions)
• host MongoDB server hostname (optional, default: 127.0.0.1)
• port MongoDB server port (optional, default: 27017)
• username Username (optional)
• password Password (optional)
• auto_reconnect This is passed directly to the MongoDB Server constructor as the auto_reconnect option (optional, default: false).
• url Connection url of the form: mongodb:https://user:pass@host:port/database/collection. If provided, information in the URL takes priority over the other options.
• mongooseConnection in the form: someMongooseDb.connections[0] to use an existing mongoose connection. (optional)
• clear_interval Interval in seconds to clear expired sessions (optional, default: -1). Values <= 0 disable expired session clearing.
• stringify If true, connect-mongo will serialize sessions using JSON.stringify before setting them, and deserialize them with JSON.parse when getting them. (optional, default: true). This is useful if you are using types that MongoDB doesn't support.

The second parameter to the MongoStore constructor is a callback which will be called once the database connection is established. This is mainly used for the tests, however you can use this callback if you want to wait until the store has connected before starting your app.

With express:

var express = require('express');
var MongoStore = require('connect-mongo')(express);

app.use(express.session({
    secret: settings.cookie_secret,
    store: new MongoStore({
      db: settings.db
    })
  }));

With connect:

var connect = require('connect');
var MongoStore = require('connect-mongo')(connect);

You need mocha.

make test

The tests use a database called connect-mongo-test.
