Wow nice work, but I cannot compile it :( about mingo HOT 9 CLOSED

Hello,

Am glad you found this project useful. Mingo runs in NodeJS and the Browser. I am unfamiliar with the Jurassic C# library and have not tested it within that context.

While I look that up, to help me get a better sense of the error, could you provide an example of the query you were trying to run and the structure of the objects of your collection.

I would be happy to help.

Hi thanks a million for the response!

Ok, I didn't notice the node.js dependancy, please will you mention it on the front page?

At the moment I'm trying to do something simple:

// Insert all the init stuff here
var MyObject = { a: 1; b:2);
var result = Mingo.Test(MyObject, {a : { $gt : 0 }});
return result;

from mingo.

But I havent even gotten that far yet, right now I'm just trying to "include" your library, so I'm essentialy passing the whole file to Eval.

Ok I got a little further now.

It seems to want a reference to _ which it thinks is an object.

I inserted the below code into the startup sequence right in the beginning of the function:

var module = {};
var require = function () { return {};  };
var exports = {};

This seems to have made it happier.. now I need to figure out what this _ (underscore) thing is..

from mingo.

The documentation is quite clear on the context.
I think you may be using the api a bit incorrectly. You need to create a query object as in the example below.

var query = new Mingo.Query({a : { $gt : 0 }});
var result = query.test(obj); // return true or false

Great work!

Underscore is awesome and it is what powers mingo under the hood.
See here. underscore

awesome thanks for the link, let me include it and see what happens :)

from mingo.

ok including underscore.js was the magic that made this work. I removed my workaround from above and it still compiles happily.

Thank you again for the time and pain that went into making this.

from mingo.

was fun to make and thank you for finding it useful.

Happy Coding!
