Using roo to create a springsource project with mongo

Question

Preface: I am coming from a .NET and PHP backround. I'm pretty comfortable with making a console app in Java. I've never used an ORM on any platform. I'm trying to learn enterprise java best practices. Therefore, if I sound ignorant, its probably because I am.

I downloaded the latest version of the SpringSource Tool Suite. I want to make a spring project with a JPA mongo (adapter/driver/driver whatever). I'd like to do so with roo. So what I think I need to know is the name of a JPA library that has a mongodb driver.

Answer 1

Check out Kundera, it's a JPA 1.0 ORM library for the Cassandra/Hbase/MongoDB database. For info about getting started, see this blog post: Working with MongoDB using Kundera.
