Lumen API Development

In this project I ma using MongoDB and MySQL. The basic MongoDB has been covered till "commit aa73c0e8dbb6d75dbbc46e5b80d734e1184e4c6b". After that I have used MySQL. To use MongoDB I have been using this git package https://github.com/jenssegers/laravel-mongodb/blob/master/README.md

Read their documentation

Installation using composer :
composer require jenssegers/mongodb

Laravel version Compatibility

Laravel	Package
4.2.x	2.0.x
5.0.x	2.1.x
5.1.x	2.2.x or 3.0.x
5.2.x	2.3.x or 3.0.x
5.3.x	3.1.x or 3.2.x
5.4.x	3.2.x
5.5.x	3.3.x
5.6.x	3.4.x

add the service provider in bootstrap/app.php.

$app->register(Jenssegers\Mongodb\MongodbServiceProvider::class);

$app->withEloquent();

###Changes in Model

Please change all Jenssegers\Mongodb\Model references to Jenssegers\Mongodb\Eloquent\Model either at the top of your model files, or your registered alias.

use Jenssegers\Mongodb\Eloquent\Model as Eloquent;

class User extends Eloquent {}

Embedded relations now return an Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Collection rather than a custom Collection class. If you were using one of the special methods that were available, convert them to Collection operations.

$books = $user->books()->sortBy('title');

Configuration

Change your default database connection name in /vendor/laravel/lumen-framework/config/database.php:

'default' => env('DB_CONNECTION', 'mongodb'),

And add a new mongodb connection:

'mongodb' => [
    'driver'   => 'mongodb',
    'host'     => env('DB_HOST', 'localhost'),
    'port'     => env('DB_PORT', 27017),
    'database' => env('DB_DATABASE'),
    'username' => env('DB_USERNAME'),
    'password' => env('DB_PASSWORD'),
    'options'  => [
        'database' => 'admin' // sets the authentication database required by mongo 3
    ]
],
