stryke-mongo — Documentation

>_STRYKE-MONGO

Documents, one stryke pipe at a time. MongoDB client for stryke. CRUD, aggregation, index admin against any MongoDB 5.0+ standalone, replica set, or sharded cluster. Opt-in package.

Install

# build the helper binary, install as a stryke package
cd ~/projects/stryke-mongo
cargo build --release
s pkg install -g .

# one-liner
make install

# verify
mongo --help

After install, mongo --help works from anywhere on PATH (assuming ~/.stryke/bin/ is on PATH). The stryke library is auto-discoverable to any project that depends on the package via [deps] mongo = { path = "..." } or, when published, by name.

CLI: `mongo`

find documents	`mongo find users --filter '{"active":true}'`
insert NDJSON pipe	`cat events.ndjson \| mongo insert events`
aggregation pipeline	`mongo agg orders '[{"$match":{"status":"new"}},{"$group":{"_id":"$user","n":{"$sum":1}}}]'`
create an index	`mongo index create users '{"email":1}' --unique`
list collections	`mongo collections list`

The full flag matrix lives in the README "CLI" section.

Why a package, not a builtin

Official mongodb Rust crate. Designed for piping documents in/out as NDJSON to feed other stryke or shell tools.

The stryke side is a thin NDJSON-pipe wrapper; the heavy code lives in the stryke-mongo-helper sidecar binary and is loaded on demand. Core stryke is never linked against this package's deps.

Helper protocol

The stryke-mongo-helper sidecar speaks newline-delimited JSON over stdin/stdout. The stryke library shells out per call and pipes structured data both ways. This keeps stryke startup small while making the package's surface area available on demand.

# manual invocation (debugging only)
echo '{"op":"version"}' | stryke-mongo-helper
