An example of generic repository implementation using the MongoDB C# Sharp 2.0 driver (async)
Now available as a nuget package: https://www.nuget.org/packages/MongoDbGenericRepository/
Covered by 400+ integration tests and counting.
The MongoDbGenericRepository is also used in AspNetCore.Identity.MongoDbCore.
If you have found this project helpful, either as a library that you use or as a learning tool, please consider buying Alex a coffee:
This package sets the MongoDefaults.GuidRepresentation to MongoDB.Bson.GuidRepresentation.Standard by default, instead of the default driver setting of MongoDB.Bson.GuidRepresentation.CSharpLegacy. This can cause issues if you have been using the driver on an existing application previously or if you are using CosmosDB.
You can override this behaviour to enforce legacy behaviour in your app Startup routine like so :
MongoDbContext.SetGuidRepresentation(MongoDB.Bson.GuidRepresentation.CSharpLegacy). More info here.
This repository is meant to be inherited from.
You are responsible for managing its lifetime, it is advised to setup this repository as a singleton.
Here is an example of repository usage, where the TestRepository is implementing 2 custom methods:
public interface ITestRepository : IBaseMongoRepository
{
void DropTestCollection<TDocument>();
void DropTestCollection<TDocument>(string partitionKey);
}
public class TestRepository : BaseMongoRepository, ITestRepository
{
public TestRepository(string connectionString, string databaseName) : base(connectionString, databaseName)
{
}
public void DropTestCollection<TDocument>()
{
MongoDbContext.DropCollection<TDocument>();
}
public void DropTestCollection<TDocument>(string partitionKey)
{
MongoDbContext.DropCollection<TDocument>(partitionKey);
}
}If all your documents have the same type of Id, you can use the more specific BaseMongoRepository<TKey> where TKey is the type of the Id of your documents.
public class TestTKeyRepository<TKey> : BaseMongoRepository<TKey>, ITestRepository<TKey> where TKey : IEquatable<TKey>
{
const string connectionString = "mongodb://localhost:27017/MongoDbTests";
private static readonly ITestRepository<TKey> _instance = new TestTKeyRepository<TKey>(connectionString);
/// <inheritdoc />
private TestTKeyRepository(string connectionString) : base(connectionString)
{
}
}The repository can be instantiated like so:
ITestRepository testRepository = new TestRepository(connectionString, "MongoDbTests");
ITestRepository<TKey> testTKeyRepository = new TestTKeyRepository<TKey>(connectionString);If you prefer to reuse the same MongoDb database across your application, you can use the MongoDatabase from the MongoDb driver implementing the IMongoDatabase interface:
var client = new MongoClient(connectionString);
var mongoDbDatabase = Client.GetDatabase(databaseName);
ITestRepository testRepository = new TestRepository(mongoDbDatabase);To add a document, its class must inherit from the Document class, implement the IDocument or IDocument<TKey> interface:
public class MyDocument : Document
{
public MyDocument()
{
Version = 2; // you can bump the version of the document schema if you change it over time
}
public string SomeContent { get; set; }
}The IDocument and IDocument<TKey> interfaces can be seen below:
/// <summary>
/// This class represents a basic document that can be stored in MongoDb.
/// Your document must implement this class in order for the MongoDbRepository to handle them.
/// </summary>
public interface IDocument
{
Guid Id { get; set; }
int Version { get; set; }
}
/// <summary>
/// This class represents a basic document that can be stored in MongoDb.
/// Your document must implement this class in order for the MongoDbRepository to handle them.
/// </summary>
public interface IDocument<TKey> where TKey : IEquatable<TKey>
{
/// <summary>
/// The Primary Key, which must be decorated with the [BsonId] attribute
/// if you want the MongoDb C# driver to consider it to be the document ID.
/// </summary>
[BsonId]
TKey Id { get; set; }
/// <summary>
/// A version number, to indicate the version of the schema.
/// </summary>
int Version { get; set; }
}This repository also allows you to partition your document across multiple collections, this can be useful if you are running a SaaS application and want to keep good performance.
To use partitioned collections, you must define your documents using the PartitionedDocument class, which implements the IPartitionedDocument interface:
public class MyPartitionedDocument : PartitionedDocument
{
public MyPartitionedDocument(string myPartitionKey) : base(myPartitionKey)
{
Version = 1;
}
public string SomeContent { get; set; }
}This partitioned key will be used as a prefix to your collection name. The collection name is derived from the name of the type of your document, is set to camel case, and is pluralized using a class taken from Humanizer (https://github.com/Humanizr/Humanizer).
var myDoc = new MyPartitionedDocument("myPartitionKey");
_testRepository.AddOne(myDoc);The above code will generate a collection named myPartitionKey-myPartitionedDocuments.
It is now possible to change the collection name by using the CollectionName attribute:
[CollectionName("MyCollectionName")]
public class MyDocument : Document
{
public MyDocument()
{
Version = 2;
}
public string SomeContent { get; set; }
}Documents of this type will be inserted into a collection named "MyCollectionName".
From version 1.3.8 the MongoDbGenericRepository implements the IBaseMongoRepository_Index and IBaseMongoRepository_Index<TKey> interfaces.
This exposes the functionality to programmatically manage indexes against your collections in a generic fashion.
The following methods are exposed and fully integration tested:
- CreateAscendingIndexAsync
- CreateDescendingIndexAsync
- CreateCombinedTextIndexAsync
- CreateHashedIndexAsync
- CreateTextIndexAsync
- DropIndexAsync
- GetIndexesNamesAsync
Usage examples:
string expectedIndexName = $"myCustomIndexName";
var option = new IndexCreationOptions
{
Name = expectedIndexName
};
// Act
// create a text index against the Version property of the document.
var result = await SUT.CreateTextIndexAsync<T, TKey>(x => x.Version, option, PartitionKey);
// Assert
var listOfIndexNames = await SUT.GetIndexesNamesAsync<T, TKey>(PartitionKey);
Assert.Contains(expectedIndexName, listOfIndexNames);
// Cleanup
await SUT.DropIndexAsync<T, TKey>(expectedIndexName, PartitionKey);Please refer to the IntegrationTests (NET45) and CoreIntegrationTests (netstandard2.0) projects for more usage examples.
The CoreIntegrationTests.Infrastructure.MongoDbTKeyDocumentTestBase<T, TKey> test class is a good start.
