MongoDB-Roblox

Oh hey there! Welcome.

You may have some questions such as:

• What is this?
• Well MongoDB-Roblox is a wrapper for mongodb in roblox.
• Why not just use the datastore roblox provides?
• If you use this you will be able to access your data from anywhere, such as a discord bot, web dashboard etc..
• How do I start using this?
• Well continue reading as the tutorial part is coming up.

Getting started

To start using MongoDB-Roblox you will need an api key, you can get this by getting in contact with me on discord through my profile.

Steps:

• Copy the mongo.lua script code from the src folder.
• Paste it in a module script named to your liking (default is "mongo", you will need this name to require the module into other scripts).
• Go to ServerStorage and make a folder called "DB".
• In the DB folder put 2 string values in, "url' and "key".
• Set the "key" value to the api key, and the url key to the api url (https://api-production-ewox.up.railway.app/).

You're now done with the setup!

Documentation

Defining:
We in this case assume that "db" is defined as local db = require(game:GetService("ServerScriptService").mongo).

Properties:

• Params are the parameters to search for, this needs to be a lua table like so: {user = "669882318"}.
• Model is the mongoDB model name where you need to search, you will have yor own model names like:
  korabi-money or korabi-rebirths.
• Update is only used in db:Update() and it is a lua table of what needs to be changed in the info.

Functions:

db:Find(Params, Model)
db:Create(Params, Model)
db:Delete(Params, Model)
db:Update(Params, Model, Update)

Support:

For support send me a friend request on discord via [my profile](https://discord.com/users/638476135457357849).
Example:

local db = require(game:GetService("ServerScriptService").mongo)

game:GetService("Players").PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	local ls = Instance.new("Folder", player)
	ls.Name = "leaderstats"
	local money = Instance.new("IntValue", ls)
	money.Name = "money"
	money.Value = 0
	local data = db:Find({user = tostring(player.userId)}, "money")
	print(data)
	if data.success == true then
		money.Value = data.money
	else
		data = db:Create({user = tostring(player.userId), money = 0, name = player.Name}, "money")
		print("new data for player ".. player.Name)
	end
end)

game:GetService("Players").PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player)
	local data = db:Update({user = tostring(player.userId)}, "money", {money = player.leaderstats.money.Value, name = string.lower(player.Name)})
	if data.success == true then
		print("saved")
	else
		print(data)
		print("error while saving")
	end
end)

game.ReplicatedStorage.click.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(p)
	p.leaderstats.money.Value = p.leaderstats.money.Value + 1
end)
