ORM-like Layers
---------------
@ -25,97 +26,59 @@ needs. Even if you eventually come to the decision to use one of these
layers, the time spent working directly with the driver will have
increased your understanding of how MongoDB actually works.
MongoKit
The `MongoKit <http://github.com/namlook/mongokit>`_ framework
is an ORM-like layer on top of PyMongo. There is also a MongoKit
`google group <http://groups.google.com/group/mongokit>`_.
Ming
`Ming <http://merciless.sourceforge.net/>`_ (the Merciless) is a
library that allows you to enforce schemas on a MongoDB database in
your Python application. It was developed by `SourceForge
<http://sourceforge.net/>`_ in the course of their migration to
MongoDB. See the `introductory blog post
<http://blog.pythonisito.com/2009/12/ming-01-released-python-library-for.html>`_
for more details.
MongoAlchemy
`MongoAlchemy <http://mongoalchemy.org>`_ is another ORM-like layer on top of
PyMongo. Its API is inspired by `SQLAlchemy <http://sqlalchemy.org>`_. The
code is available `on github <http://github.com/jeffjenkins/MongoAlchemy>`_;
for more information, see `the tutorial <http://mongoalchemy.org/tutorial.html>`_.
MongoEngine
`MongoEngine <http://hmarr.com/mongoengine/>`_ is another ORM-like
layer on top of PyMongo. It allows you to define schemas for
documents and query collections using syntax inspired by the Django
ORM. The code is available on `github
<http://github.com/hmarr/mongoengine>`_; for more information, see
the `tutorial <http://hmarr.com/mongoengine/tutorial.html>`_.
django-mongodb-engine
`Django MongoDB Engine
<http://django-mongodb.org/>`_ is a MongoDB
database backend for Django that completely integrates with its ORM.
For more information `see the tutorial <http://django-mongodb.org/tutorial.html>`_.
Minimongo
`minimongo <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/minimongo>`_ is a lightweight,
pythonic interface to MongoDB. It retains pymongo's query and update API,
and provides a number of additional features, including a simple
document-oriented interface, connection pooling, index management, and
collection & database naming helpers. The `source is on github
<http://github.com/slacy/minimongo>`_.
