	<title>Overview</title>
	<para>
		This module provides a non-db connector to interact with MongoDB NoSQL
		server from configuration file. You can read more about MongoDB at
		<ulink url="http://www.mongodb.org">http://www.mongodb.org</ulink>.
	</para>
	<para>
		It can connect to many MongoDB servers and store the results in different
		containers.

		<title>External Libraries or Applications</title>

		The following libraries or applications must be installed before running

			<itemizedlist>
			<listitem>

				<emphasis>mongo-c-driver</emphasis> - available at
				<ulink url="https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-c-driver">https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-c-driver</ulink>
			</para>
			<para>
				Note: if you use tls module, use at least mongo-c-driver v1.3.5
				and compile the library by configuring it without automatic init
				and cleanup (you have to run:
				'./configure --disable-automatic-init-and-cleanup') -- this
				option is planned to be removed in future versions. An alternative
				for v1.3.5 could be the patch from:
				https://github.com/miconda/mongo-c-driver/commit/51d95009de39eaeca48491682a5ffec4f83cde55

	<title>Parameters</title>
	<section id="ndb_mongodb.p.server">
		<title><varname>server</varname> (str)</title>
		<para>
			Specify the details to connect to MongoDB server. It takes a list of
			attribute=value separated by semicolon, the attributes can be
			name and uri. Name is a generic identifier to be used
			with module functions. The uri parameter must be a valid
			MongoDB database connection string.
		</para>
		<para>
			You can set this parameter many times, in case you want to connect to
			many MongoDB servers, just give different attributes and use the specific
			server name when querying the MongoDB instance.
		</para>
		<para>
		<emphasis>
			Default value is NULL.
		</emphasis>
		</para>

	    <title>
		<function moreinfo="none">mongodb_cmd(srvname, dbname, cname, command, replyid)</function>
	    </title>
	    <para>
			Send a valid command to MongoDB server identified by srvname. The reply will
			be stored in a local container identified by replyid. All the
			parameters can be strings with pseudo-variables that are evaluated
			at runtime.
		</para>
		<para>
			The reply can be accessed via pseudo-variable $mongodb(key). The key
			can be: type - type of the reply; value - the value in JSON format
			returned by MongoDB server; info - in case of error from MongoDB, it will
			contain an info message.
		</para>
		<para>
			The result can contain many documents, see mongodb_next() function for
			more details.
		</para>

			contain an info message.
		</para>
		<para>
			This function is useful for querying collections and accessing the results.
		</para>
		<para>
			See mongodb_cmd() for the meaning of the parameters, with the remark that

		<function moreinfo="none">mongodb_find_one(srvname, dbname, cname, command, replyid)</function>
	    </title>
	    <para>
			Similar to mongodb_find(...), but it stops searching after first
			match, returning the result with one object - faster when expecting
			to have a single match. Parameters and behaviour are the same
			as for mongodb_find(...).

	<section id="ndb_mongodb.f.mongodb_next">
	<title>
		<function moreinfo="none">mongodb_next(replyid)</function>
	</title>
	<para>
		Moves to next document in a MongoDB reply. This function can be used
		after a successful mongodb_cmd() or mongodb_find(). It returns true if
		there is a shift to document. The current document becomes available
		via $mongodb(key) variable.
	</para>

	<section id="ndb_mongodb.f.mongodb_free">
	<title>
		<function moreinfo="none">mongodb_free(replyid)</function>
	</title>
	<para>
		Frees data in a previous reply from memory.
		After this function call, accessing to a freed replyid returns null value.
	</para>
	<para>
		It is not really necessary to free a reply to use it again in a new mongodb_cmd
		function, being automatically freed on next command execution, but for freeing
		used resources (e.g., memory), it is recommended to do it.
	</para>
