Enabling the Add-On: The persistence service MongoDB is NOT visible/available in PaperUI for for installation on openHAB 2.4 Snapshot (and I believe the same is true also for OH 2.3)
Enhancing the Add-On: Currently, the binding configuration does not have authentication support. It would be nice to have them added (not very important since not many users actually use MongoDB for persistence and even fewer will need auth for the connection to the DB
Ps: @kaikreuzer What about using JDBC (https://www.openhab.org/addons/persistence/jdbc/) to support MongoDB also? Is this possible (to extend JDBC functionality to cover MongoDB) or preferable ?
