timeline for mongo 2.4 support?

[Ian Serlin]

Hey guys,

Curious what work would need to be done to get mongo 2.4 support in the meteor release and up on the meteor deploy cloud. I'm specifically interested in using the improved geospatial features like 2dsphere indexing and the built-in text stemming and tokenization with the new text indexing.

Here are the relevant mongo docs:

http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/core/2dsphere/

http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/core/text-search/

I've been running it locally with no problems (as expected), but this forces me to jump into setting up my own servers to deploy. :/

Cheers!

Hi Ian,

The main work for supporting mongo 2.4 is making new mongo clusters for meteor deploy and migrating all the deployed apps to the new database. After that, we just have to update mongod in the dev_bundle to 2.4 so people get the new version in development mode.

I've been thinking we should migrate to a new mongo cluster anyway to take advantage of the new EBS optimized instances on EC2, and maybe the provisioned IOPS EBS volumes too. More I/O capacity could let us use fewer database machines.

No promises on timeline, though. Probably not in the next couple weeks, maybe sometime after that...

Mongo 2.4 is now on devel, and I've built a release for people to test with: '--release mongo-2.4-test-1'

Migration of meteor deploy mongo hosting is in the works.

Cheers,

Thank you, Nick. I was looking forward to it. 

I see a branch, "mongo-2.4" and a tag, "release/mongo-2.4-test-1." 

Which is it?

[David Glasser]

If you just run
$ meteor --release mongo-2.4-test-1
(with an installed copy of Meteor)
it will use the release that he built. (If you want to pin your app
to that release, use "meteor update --release mongo-2.4-test-1".)

Thanks much, David.

New apps now get allocated on a mongo 2.4 cluster.

I'll be migrating existing apps to the new clusters slowly over the next week or so. Each app will experience a minute or so of downtime as it is taken down, has it's database copied, and is restarted.

If you're impatient for your app to be migrated and don't care about your data, you can delete it and redeploy to get on the new db =)

Please let me know if you notice any problems with meteor deploy.

Enjoy!

Is Mongo's native Full text search in the scope of minimongo?
