Swapping DB #22

Closed SCKelemen closed 8 years ago

SCKelemen commented 8 years ago

Can you tell me if it's possible to use MongoDB, which is a NoSQL database? I can rewrite the code, I am simply just accessing if its possible to use a NoSQL db with this, and how difficult it would be...

Yes it should be possible as the records are relatively simple and it doesn't use joins much at present (I plan to later though). I was also thinking of looking at an adapter for boltdb.

Joins would be your main issue, which you'd have to handle manually (things like tags joins).

@kennygrant thanks for the reply. I tried using mongo for another project, and I think I'm going to leave mongo. I just think in relations and SQL, not documents and objects.
