Node.js embedded mongoDb module

This is a simple module which start/stop an already installed, existing, localhost mongod server.

This module is very useful for running mongodb as part of a Gulp/Grunt testing task.

Getting Started

Install mongodb

Install the module with: npm install node-embedded-mongodb

Then, use it:

var embeddedMongoDB = require('node-embedded-mongodb');

var dbPath = '/path/to/data/db/';
var logPath = '/path/to/mongod.log';

// If you don't want the logs, set true.
embeddedMongoDB.silentMode(true);

embeddedMongoDB.start(dbPath, logPath, function(err) {

// mongodb://localhost:27017 is UP
)};

OR

embeddedMongoDB.start(null, null, function(err) {

// mongodb://localhost:27017 is UP
// created a local embedded/data/db folder and a local embedded/log file
)};

embeddedMongoDB.stop(function(err) {

// mongodb://localhost:27017 is DOWN
)};
