MongoDB get server

Question

I try to connect to server and get database. It run properly but it VS2013 show me a warning :

Warning 1 'MongoDB.Driver.MongoClientExtensions.GetServer(MongoDB.Driver.MongoClient)' is obsolete: 'Use the new API instead.

        string connectionString = "mongodb://localhost:27017";
        MongoClientSettings settings = MongoClientSettings.FromUrl(new MongoUrl(connectionString));
        MongoClient mongoClient = new MongoClient(settings);
        var server = mongoClient.GetServer();
        var db = server.GetDatabase("bookstore");
        var bookCollection = db.GetCollection<Book>("Book");

Can someone help me solve this ? Tks for reading.

Answer 1

The MongoServer class was deprecated in version 2.0.0 (see here). You can call GetDatabase() directly on the MongoClient object:

MongoClient mongoClient = new MongoClient(settings);
var db = mongoClient.GetDatabase("bookstore");

More documentation about connecting to the MongoDB server, retrieving a database, etc. can be found in the reference documentation.

Answer 2

I changed my code to following:

var mongoUrl = new MongoUrl(connectionString);
var mongoClient = new MongoClient(mongoUrl);
MongoServer server = new MongoServer(MongoServerSettings.FromClientSettings(mongoClient.Settings));
