*MongoDB backend

MongoDB backend for OpenERP

This is a functional, but very early release.
This module is initially intended to store very large amounts 
of data, but not accessed frequently.

*Requirements

- MongoDB server 2.x
- Pymongo 2.0.1 at least.

This module is tested in OpenERP server version 5.0

*Installation

You can install this module like any other OpenERP module.

The connection to the MongoDB server, defaults to:

- MongoDB database name = 'openerp' (mongodb_name)
- MongoDB server host = 'localhost' (mongodb_host)
- MongoDB server port = '27017' (mongodb_port)

You can use your own connection parameters by adding to the OpenERP 
configuration file the keywords in brackets.

*Basics

from mongodb_backend import osv_mongodb

class MongoDBStoredObject(osv_mongodb.osv_mongodb):
    '''Define here the object as usual'''

MongoDBStoredObject()

*Restrictions

It only allows all basic data fields (integer, float, char, boolean, etc...).
It does not allow relational fields like one2many, many2many, and many2one.
Browse method is not implemented by now.
Inheritance is not tested.
