MongoDB database

Overview

The mongodb.com/MongoDatabase resource represents a Mongo database.

Resource format

• Recipe
• Manual

resource db 'Applications.Datastores/mongoDatabases@2023-10-01-preview' = {
  name: 'db'
  properties: {
    environment: environment
    application: app.id
    recipe: {
      // Name a specific Recipe to use
      name: 'azure-cosmosdb'
      // Set optional/required parameters (specific to the Recipe)
      parameters: {
        size: 'large'
      }
    }
  }
}

Methods

The following methods are available on the Mongo database resource:

Resource provisioning

Provision with a Recipe

Recipes automate infrastructure provisioning using approved templates. You can specify a Recipe name that is registered in the environment or omit the name and use the “default” Recipe.

Parameters can also optionally be specified for the Recipe.

Provision manually

If you want to manually manage your infrastructure provisioning outside of Recipes, you can set resourceProvisioning to 'manual' and provide all necessary parameters and values in order for Radius to be able to deploy/connect to the desired infrastructure.

Environment variables for connections

Other Radius resources, such as containers, may connect to a MongoDB resource via connections. When a connection to MongoDB named, for example, myconnection is declared, Radius injects values into environment variables that are then used to access the connected MongoDB resource:
