-------------------------
## Requirements
- Go 1.10 or higher. We aim to support the latest supported versions of go.
- MongoDB 2.6 and higher.
-------------------------
## Installation
The recommended way to get started using the MongoDB Go driver is by using go modules to install the dependency in
your project. This can be done either by importing packages from `go.mongodb.org/mongo-driver` and having the build
step install the dependency or by explicitly running
```bash
go get go.mongodb.org/mongo-driver/mongo
```
When using a version of Go that does not support modules, the driver can be installed using `dep` by running
```bash
dep ensure -add "go.mongodb.org/mongo-driver/mongo"
```
-------------------------
## Usage
To get started with the driver, import the `mongo` package, create a `mongo.Client`:
```go
import (
"go.mongodb.org/mongo-driver/mongo"
"go.mongodb.org/mongo-driver/mongo/options"
)
client, err := mongo.NewClient(options.Client().ApplyURI("mongodb://localhost:27017"))
```
And connect it to your running MongoDB server:
```go
ctx, _ := context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), 10*time.Second)
err = client.Connect(ctx)
```
To do this in a single step, you can use the `Connect` function:
```go
ctx, _ := context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), 10*time.Second)
client, err := mongo.Connect(ctx, options.Client().ApplyURI("mongodb://localhost:27017"))
```
Calling `Connect` does not block for server discovery. If you wish to know if a MongoDB server has been found and connected to,
use the `Ping` method:
```go
ctx, _ = context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), 2*time.Second)
err = client.Ping(ctx, readpref.Primary())
```
To insert a document into a collection, first retrieve a `Database` and then `Collection` instance from the `Client`:
```go
collection := client.Database("testing").Collection("numbers")
```
The `Collection` instance can then be used to insert documents:
```go
ctx, _ = context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), 5*time.Second)
res, err := collection.InsertOne(ctx, bson.M{"name": "pi", "value": 3.14159})
id := res.InsertedID
```
Several query methods return a cursor, which can be used like this:
```go
ctx, _ = context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), 30*time.Second)
cur, err := collection.Find(ctx, bson.D{})
if err != nil { log.Fatal(err) }
defer cur.Close(ctx)
for cur.Next(ctx) {
var result bson.M
err := cur.Decode(&result)
if err != nil { log.Fatal(err) }
// do something with result....
}
if err := cur.Err(); err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
```
For methods that return a single item, a `SingleResult` instance is returned:
```go
var result struct {
Value float64
}
filter := bson.M{"name": "pi"}
ctx, _ = context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), 5*time.Second)
err = collection.FindOne(ctx, filter).Decode(&result)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
// Do something with result...
```

## Bugs / Feature Reporting
New Features and bugs can be reported on jira: https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/GODRIVER
-------------------------
## Testing / Development
The driver tests can be run against several database configurations. The most simple configuration is a standalone mongod with no auth, no ssl, and no compression. To run these basic driver tests, make sure a standalone MongoDB server instance is running at localhost:27017. To run the tests, you can run `make` (on Windows, run `nmake`). This will run coverage, run go-lint, run go-vet, and build the examples.
### Testing Different Topologies
To test a **replica set** or **sharded cluster**, set `MONGODB_URI=""` for the `make` command.
For example, for a local replica set named `rs1` comprised of three nodes on ports 27017, 27018, and 27019:
```
MONGODB_URI="mongodb://localhost:27017,localhost:27018,localhost:27018/?replicaSet=rs1" make
```
### Testing Auth and SSL
To test authentication and SSL, first set up a MongoDB cluster with auth and SSL configured. Testing authentication requires a user with the `root` role on the `admin` database. The Go Driver repository comes with example certificates in the `data/certificates` directory. These certs can be used for testing. Here is an example command that would run a mongod with SSL correctly configured for tests:
```
mongod \
--auth \
--sslMode requireSSL \
--sslPEMKeyFile $(pwd)/data/certificates/server.pem \
--sslCAFile $(pwd)/data/certificates/ca.pem \
--sslWeakCertificateValidation
```
To run the tests with `make`, set `MONGO_GO_DRIVER_CA_FILE` to the location of the CA file used by the database, set `MONGODB_URI` to the connection string of the server, set `AUTH=auth`, and set `SSL=ssl`. For example:
```
AUTH=auth SSL=ssl MONGO_GO_DRIVER_CA_FILE=$(pwd)/data/certificates/ca.pem MONGODB_URI="mongodb://user:password@localhost:27017/?authSource=admin" make
```
Notes:
- The `--sslWeakCertificateValidation` flag is required on the server for the test suite to work correctly.
- The test suite requires the auth database to be set with `?authSource=admin`, not `/admin`.
### Testing Compression
The MongoDB Go Driver supports wire protocol compression using Snappy, zLib, or zstd. To run tests with wire protocol compression, set `MONGO_GO_DRIVER_COMPRESSOR` to `snappy`, `zlib`, or `zstd`. For example:
```
MONGO_GO_DRIVER_COMPRESSOR=snappy make
```
Ensure the [`--networkMessageCompressors` flag](https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/program/mongod/#cmdoption-mongod-networkmessagecompressors) on mongod or mongos includes `zlib` if testing zLib compression.
