README

run deployd without mongodb (but a jsonfile instead to store data)

Usage

$ npm install dpd-filebased-mongodb mongo-mock --save
$ mkdir data
$ export MONGO_DB_FILE=data/mongo.js
$ node app.js

Now make sure you include it before deployd itself in your app.js:

    require('dpd-filebased-mongodb')           // <-- magic right there
    var deployd = require('deployd')
    var dpd = deployd({port:3000});
    dpd.listen();

That's it! Now your data is stored in data/mongodb.js

Why

Sometimes you want to use deployd for simple api's without the mongodb-requirement.
Sometimes you want to test deployd with a fake mongodb

Notes

to specify a different dbfile, specify environment variable MONGO_DB_FILE="data/foo.js" etc
it doesn't run all mongo-queries, see mongo-mock
because of this, hide(field) doesn't always work (solution: put if( this.password ) delete this.password into event-code)
