Support for Replica Sets

[indexzero]

Not sure. Maybe @yosefd can answer this

[yosefd]

The package options include only host and port, as it is now, so it doesn't support replica sets.

However, I am using this package to log into full sharded mongo with multiple shards and multiple replica sets. With sharded installation you have mongo router (mongos) that can be addressed like a single server.

Hello all.
In regards to preveiuos questions, is it possible to specify only the master of replica set in the host configuration?

[mvdwalle]

It is not really an option to use a mongos installation just for logging. Support for replicasets would be really useful.

2nd that...!
It's already half working, you can write into the DB primary, but when the Primary moves you get:
TypeError: Object Error: Cannot write to a secondary has no method 'isCompatible'

mvdwalle knows all the things...!

It would be pretty easy i think, why can't you use connection strings like mongoose...?
"uri":"db1/thing,db2/thing,db3/thing"

I'm getting this same error, @philpoore .
What do you mean by "when the Primary moves"?

[philpoore]

Primary DB Server in the Replica Set.
If the first server in Mongo Connection String is the Primary Server it'll work.

But as soon as the set nominates a new primary. The connection to DB fails... :(

You can Hack Replica Sets in by changing https://github.com/indexzero/winston-mongodb/blob/master/lib/winston-mongodb.js#L76:

this.server = new mongodb.Server(this.host, this.port, {
    ssl: this.ssl
  });

GIVE ME 30 min i'll patch it...

@philpoore you may send a pull request. Note, that you should keep compatibility with old settings format and follow the same style guide. Thank you.

Replica Sets are supported in current version.
