# Mongo Rust Driver

## About

Mongo Rust driver built on top of the [Mongo C driver](https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-c-driver).
This drivers aims to be a thin wrapper around the production-ready C driver, while providing a safe
and ergonomic Rust interface that handles all the gnarly usage details of the C driver for you.

Bson encoding and decoding is handled by the [bson crate](https://github.com/zonyitoo/bson-rs), the bindings
are generated using [bindgen](https://github.com/crabtw/rust-bindgen).

The API is experimental, it might change at any time.

## Compatibility

The driver currently only builds on Unix, tested on Mac Os X and Linux so far. On Mac Os X you might need to
set this environment var for building to work (see https://github.com/crabtw/rust-bindgen#building for details):

```
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/lib
```

## Logging

All internal logging by mongoc is redirected to the macros in the [log
crate](http://doc.rust-lang.org/log/log/index.html). See the `log` docs
to configure output in your application.

## Examples

See the tests directory for examples of how to use the driver.

## Contributing

Contributions are very welcome, only the parts of the C driver we need have been wrapped so far. Please write a test for any behavior you add.
