Class MongoClientURI

java.lang.Object

com.mongodb.MongoClientURI

public class MongoClientURI
extends Object

Represents a URI which can be used to create a MongoClient instance. The URI describes the hosts to be used and options.

The format of the URI is:

   mongodb://[username:password@]host1[:port1][,host2[:port2],...[,hostN[:portN]]][/[database][?options]]
 

• mongodb:// is a required prefix to identify that this is a string in the standard connection format.
• username:password@ are optional. If given, the driver will attempt to login to a database after connecting to a database server. For some authentication mechanisms, only the username is specified and the password is not, in which case the ":" after the username is left off as well
• host1 is the only required part of the URI. It identifies a server address to connect to.
• :portX is optional and defaults to :27017 if not provided.
• /database is the name of the database to login to and thus is only relevant if the username:password@ syntax is used. If not specified the "admin" database will be used by default.
• ?options are connection options. Note that if database is absent there is still a / required between the last host and the ? introducing the options. Options are name=value pairs and the pairs are separated by "&". For backwards compatibility, ";" is accepted as a separator in addition to "&", but should be considered as deprecated.

The following options are supported (case insensitive):

Replica set configuration:

• replicaSet=name: Implies that the hosts given are a seed list, and the driver will attempt to find all members of the set.

Connection Configuration:

• ssl=true|false: Whether to connect using SSL.
• connectTimeoutMS=ms: How long a connection can take to be opened before timing out.
• socketTimeoutMS=ms: How long a send or receive on a socket can take before timing out.

Connection pool configuration:

• maxPoolSize=n: The maximum number of connections in the connection pool.
• waitQueueMultiple=n : this multiplier, multiplied with the maxPoolSize setting, gives the maximum number of threads that may be waiting for a connection to become available from the pool. All further threads will get an exception right away.
• waitQueueTimeoutMS=ms: The maximum wait time in milliseconds that a thread may wait for a connection to become available.

Write concern configuration:

• safe=true|false
  • true: the driver sends a getLastError command after every update to ensure that the update succeeded (see also w and wtimeoutMS).
  • false: the driver does not send a getLastError command after every update.
• w=wValue
  • The driver adds { w : wValue } to the getLastError command. Implies safe=true.
  • wValue is typically a number, but can be any string in order to allow for specifications like "majority"
• wtimeoutMS=ms
  • The driver adds { wtimeout : ms } to the getlasterror command. Implies safe=true.
  • Used in combination with w

Read preference configuration:

• slaveOk=true|false: Whether a driver connected to a replica set will send reads to slaves/secondaries.
• readPreference=enum: The read preference for this connection. If set, it overrides any slaveOk value.
  • Enumerated values:
    • primary
    • primaryPreferred
    • secondary
    • secondaryPreferred
    • nearest
• readPreferenceTags=string. A representation of a tag set as a comma-separated list of colon-separated key-value pairs, e.g. "dc:ny,rack:1". Spaces are stripped from beginning and end of all keys and values. To specify a list of tag sets, using multiple readPreferenceTags, e.g. readPreferenceTags=dc:ny,rack:1;readPreferenceTags=dc:ny;readPreferenceTags=
  • Note the empty value for the last one, which means match any secondary as a last resort.
  • Order matters when using multiple readPreferenceTags.

Authentication configuration:

• authMechanism=MONGO-CR|GSSAPI|PLAIN|MONGODB-X509: The authentication mechanism to use if a credential was supplied. The default is unspecified, in which case the client will pick the most secure mechanism available based on the sever version. For the GSSAPI and MONGODB-X509 mechanisms, no password is accepted, only the username.
• authSource=string: The source of the authentication credentials. This is typically the database that the credentials have been created. The value defaults to the database specified in the path portion of the URI. If the database is specified in neither place, the default value is "admin". This option is only respected when using the MONGO-CR mechanism (the default).
• gssapiServiceName=string: This option only applies to the GSSAPI mechanism and is used to alter the service name..

Note: This class is a replacement for MongoURI, to be used with MongoClient. The main difference in behavior is that the default write concern is WriteConcern.ACKNOWLEDGED.

Since:

2.10.0
