Typesense MongoDB Integration

A CLI to sync documents from a MongoDB collection to Typesense.

Installation

npm install -g typesense-mongodb

Usage

Prerequisites

• Make sure you are running MongoDB instance in a replica set. Or convert your standalone MongoDB instance to MongoDB replica set.
• We highly recommend that you stop writes to your MongoDB collection until you get a message from the process.
• If you are familiar with Typesense, it has an option to mark certain fields as facets. If you would like to use this feature, create your own Typesense collection and pass the collection name as an argument.
