  //Define the resources
  var Person = resourceful.define('person', function () {

    this.use('mongodb', {
      uri: "mongodb://localhost/databaseName", // required - the mongo URI of the database
      collection: "people", // required - the name of the collection
      safe: true // optional - run the driver in safe mode to ensure that the update succeeded. Defaults to false
    });
    
    this.string('name');
    this.number('age');
  });

  var Flower = resourceful.define('flower', function () {

    this.use('mongodb', {

      //The mongo URI can also be defined piecemeal

      database: "databaseName",
      collection: "flowers",
      safe: true 
    });
    
    this.string('color');
    this.number('petals');
  });

  //Open the mongodb connection
  resourceful.use('mongodb', {
    uri: "mongodb://localhost/databaseName", // required - the connection to be opened
