how to persist db.getMongo().setSlaveOk()

[Alex Howansky]

I've got a replica set up and running and, near as I can tell, it's
working just fine. However, I'm having problems querying the slaves. The
db.getMongo().setSlaveOk() setting doesn't seem to persist across
connections. Is there some way to specify this in a manner where it will
be allowed by default? (E.g., in order to use mongofiles or nginx-gridfs.)

Thanks,

If I understand you correctly, you'll need to pass the slaveok option
at the connection level in your driver. What language / driver are you
using ?

slaveOk is set for each request, so there's no way (at the moment) to say it's "okay for everyone."  You could file a feature request for the tools your using (mongofiles, nginx-gridfs) for them to add a slaveOkay option.

I'm not using any driver directly. I'm using either mongofiles or
nginx-gridfs, neither of which (to my knowledge) support this setting on
the client side.

Nuts, looks like I have to wait for this:

You can vote for/track the jira case, it should be done this fall.

Ok thanks. Per Kristina's post, it sounds like you'll have to request
feature enhancements for that. -Roger
