Support for driver-based Database Engine #61

Closed toopay closed 2 years ago

toopay commented 11 years ago

First of all, nice job with this project.

However, i would love to see if this project could also support different database engines (RiakDB, Couch or even SQL-based engine?). We could use something like Doctrine perhaps?

Abstracting away the model from hardcoded Mongo-specific syntax and support driver-based db will immenselly helpful for others that want to have this app but already depend on other db engine than Mongo.

Thanks.

Hello,

Thank you for your kind words, really means a lot.

I fully agree with supporting other DB engines, and that is partly why we used models so we could do it in the future. Although i do I think there are still a few places with Mongo queries, such as the worker.

Technically it should not be too hard to switch it out and allow multiple engines. Once things are a little more stable and we are fully happy i think its something we will do. I can't really see a reason why we could not just support most DB engines such as MySQL and RiakDB.

Thanks Scott
