Stambia DI for MongoDB

    Stambia Data Integration allows to work with MongoDB databases to produce fully customized Integration Processes.

    A MongoDB Metadata is available to reverse all the Databases and collections, that can then be used in mappings to perform operations on the MongoDB server.

    Getting Started with Stambia's MongoDB connector

      This articles explains the basics on how to use MongoDB in Stambia DI.

      Please refer to this article to find all the necessary material.

       

      Prerequisites:
      • Stambia DI Runtime S17.3.0 or higher
      • Stambia DI Designer S18.2.0 or higher

       

      Metadata

      Creation

      Create a new MongoDB Metadata:

      1.metadata

      Configure the root node:

      2.serverNode

      Property Description
      Name Alias/label of the Mongodb server.
      MongoDB URL

      MongoDB server URL.

      mongodb://[<user>:<password>@]<host>:<port>

      Some examples:

      mongodb://localhost:27017

      mongodb://myUser:myPassword@localhost:27017

      MongoDB home

      Path to the MongoDB server installation directory.

      It is used by the templates importing data through the mongoimport utility.

       

      Reverse

      Each node of the MongoDB metadata offers the possibility to reverse its structure.

      Simply right click on the desired node and choose: Actions > Reverse [All]

      • On the server node: All databases and collections are reversed
      • On a database node: All the collections of the database are reversed
      • On a collection: The collection is reversed

       

      Manual configuration

      Database

      Add a database by right clicking on the server node and choosing New > Database.

      Property Description
       Name  Alias/label of the database
       Database Physical Name

       Physical Name of the database.

      It will be used during data and reverse operations.

      You can reverse all the collections of the database with right click > Actions > Reverse.

       

      Collection

      Add a collection by right clicking on a database node and choosing New > Collection.

      Property Description
       Name  Alias/label of the collection
       Collection Physical Name

       Physical Name of the collection.

      It will be used during data and reverse operations.

      You can then reverse the collection with right click > Actions > Reverse.

      You can alternatively create the collection structure manually by adding its content with right click > New > [...].

       

      MongoDB data Integration

      MongoDB collections can be loaded from any database through the 'INTEGRATION Rdbms to MongoDB (crud)' template.

      1. Create a Mapping
      2. Drag and drop the target MongoDB collection and the source tables.
      3. Map your fields as usual.
      4. Set the 'MongoDB Operation' parameter to the wanted operation.

      Note: Please refer to the template's internal documentation for more detailed information.

       

      Read data from MongoDB

      MongoDB collections can be accessed through the 'INTEGRATION Rdbms to MongoDB (crud)' template to load any database.

      To read MongoDB data, you'll need to invoke it from a source to have a repetition key, like you would do for XML files or Web Services.

      1. Create a Mapping
      2. Drag and drop:
        • The source table that will invoke MongoDB
        • The MongoDB collection
        • The target table
      3. Map the root node of the MongoDB collection from the source
      4. Map your fields to the target table as usual
      5. Set the 'MongoDB Operation' parameter to the 'get' operation.

       

      4.MongoDB To Rdbms

       

      Tip: The source invoking MongoDB here is just used for the repetition key. We are using in our case a temporary in memory table to avoid using a 'real' table just for that. See this article to learn how to accomplish this.

       

      Note: Please refer to the template's internal documentation for more detailed information.
