Dart with MongoDB

Question

Are there any recent working examples on using Dart with MongoDB. All of the samples I'm trying are getting errors. Example below. Code: ``` import 'package:mongo_dart/mongo_dart.dart'; main(){ Db db = new Db("mongo-dart-blog"); // Throws an error. } ``` Error: ``` Unhandled exception: Invalid scheme in uri: mongo-dart-blog #0 Db.Db (package:mongo_dart/src/database/db.dart:25:7) #1 main (file:///.../MongoDart/app.dart:4:11) ```

Accepted Answer

I believe you are running some old versions of mongo_dart samples. I belive if you would get fresh version either from github https://github.com/vadimtsushko/mongo_dart or from pub.dartlang.org samples and tests would run successfully. Corresponding line in fresh version of blog sample looks like:

```
Db db = new Db("mongodb://127.0.0.1/mongo_dart-blog");
```

And this is excerpt from comment for Db.open method

Db constructor expects valid mongodb URI. For example next code points to local mongodb server on default mongodb port, database testdb

```
var db = new Db('mongodb://127.0.0.1/testdb');
```

And that code direct to MongoLab server ds037637-a.mongolab.com on 37637 port, database blog, username dart, password test

```
var db = new Db('mongodb://dart:test@ds037637-a.mongolab.com:37637/blog');
```

Unfortunately API DOC on github site is very stale, due to old dartdoc bug: http://code.google.com/p/dart/issues/detail?id=5218

I hope it will be fixed soon and I'll be able to generate valid API doc for mongo_dart.
