Kule is a REST interface for MongoDB. You can use kule as a temporary backend for your backend needed apps.

• Bottle
• Pymongo

pip install kule

python -m kule --database foo --collections users,documents

That's all.

Now you can interact with your API.

You can customize your API response for your requirements. For example, you can provide authentication method.

You can override an existing endpoint.

from kule import Kule

class MyKule(Kule):
    def delete_detail(self, collection, pk):
        return self.not_implemented()

You can override specific endpoint with kule's magical methods.

from kule import Kule

class MyKule(Kule):
    def get_users_list(self, collection):
        return ["merhaba", "hello", "hola"]

Also there is a way to build customized bundles.

from kule import Kule

class MyKule(Kule):
    def build_users_bundle(self, user):
        first_name, last_name = user.get("full_name").split()
        return {"first_name": first_name, 
                "last_name": last_name}

mykule = MyKule(database="foo")
mykule.run()

You have to override the parse method of collections. Because models listing on objects key.

Backbone.Collection.prototype.parse = function(data) {
    return data.objects ? data.objects : data;
};

// examples
var Document = Backbone.Model.extend({
    urlRoot: "http://localhost:8000/documents", // Supports CORS
    idAttribute: "_id"
});
var Documents = Backbone.Collection.extend({
    model: Document,
    url: "http://localhost:8000/documents"
});

// lets play
var _document = new Document({"title": "hello"});
_document.save()

_document.on('reset', function () {
    console.log(_document.id);
})

Pass configuration file

ie : python -m kule -f /etc/kule.conf

Sample config file :

[mongo]
collections=
database=
mongo_host=127.0.0.1
mongo_port=27017
listen_address=127.0.0.1
listen_port=8000
