Make [collections] optional on connect about mongojs HOT 5 CLOSED

That would be nice, but I love passing an array to select multiple collections at once. So I think the best solution would be to keep the second argument of connect, but just make it optional, and then add a .collection method like several other drivers.

from mongojs.

The collections array in the constructor should already be optional an there actually already is a method on db called collection so if you want to use it in a more dynamic way you can do:

var db = require('mongojs').connect('db');

db.collection('col1').find(...);

Hope that answers your question.

That's awesome! Do you need someone to update the documentation so people know that it's optional?

from mongojs.

Yes that would be great!

Documentation updated with f118ee8 with an example on how to use collections dynamically
