MongoDB Questions

When will MongoDB 7 or higher be supported? The problem is that MongoDB 6 is not supported by Debian 12: Production Notes for Self-Managed Deployments - Database Manual - MongoDB Docs . However, the Datagearry Debian package requires at least Debian 12 because it is compressed with ZST: Debian Package Tracker .

We have now set up two VMs: one handles Mongo, the other Datagearry. Hence the next question. What is the official way to communicate with an external MongoDB with authentication? We have found that it works with this:

[Database]
host = mongodb://datagerry:PASSWORT@mongodb.example.com/datagerry
port = 27017
database_name = datagerry

However, we do not know if this is fully supported.

Hi @Swordfish ,

with the latest release we also added the Tests for MongoDB 7 which should work without any issues. When we finish our tests MongoDB7 will be part of the documentation as officially supported.

The full support to communicate with an external MongoDB with authentication is currently in our Backlog and will be part of one of the upcoming releases.

Your current setup should work without any issues.

Sincerly,

Your DataGerry-Team
