Change Microservice project to use MongoDB Provider

This guide explains how to change Microservice project to use MongoDB as the database provider.

Create a new Microservice project

Use the ABP Suite to create a new Microservice project, in this guide we use version 4.4.4 and BookStore as project name.

You will get the solution as shown below:

microservce-mongodb-project

Replace EF Core references with MongoDB

You need to replace all EF Core references with MongoDB and update module dependencies.

Example:

Remove Volo.Abp.EntityFrameworkCore.SqlServer Nuget package reference.
Remove Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Tools Nuget package reference
Remove AbpEntityFrameworkCoreSqlServerModule depend.
Replace Volo.Abp.PermissionManagement.EntityFrameworkCore with Volo.Abp.PermissionManagement.MongoDB.
Update AbpPermissionManagementEntityFrameworkCoreModule to AbpPermissionManagementMongoDbModule.

Please complete it in all projects.

Update Service project

Here we use BookStore.ProductService project as an example:

Remove ProductServiceDbContextFactory class.
Remove Migrations folder.
Remove ProductServiceDbContextModelCreatingExtensions class
Replace context.Services.AddAbpDbContext with context.Services.AddMongoDbContext.

Update IProductServiceDbContext interface to the following:

[ConnectionStringName(ProductServiceDbProperties.ConnectionStringName)]
public interface IProductServiceDbContext : IAbpMongoDbContext
{
    IMongoCollection<Product> Products { get; }
}

Update ProductServiceDbContext class to the following:

[ConnectionStringName(ProductServiceDbProperties.ConnectionStringName)]
public class ProductServiceDbContext : AbpMongoDbContext, IProductServiceDbContext
{
    public IMongoCollection<Product> Products => Collection<Product>();
}

Update ProductServiceEntityFrameworkCoreModule class to the following:

[DependsOn(
    typeof(AbpMongoDbModule),
    typeof(ProductServiceDomainModule)
)]
public class ProductServiceMongoDbModule : AbpModule
{
    public override void PreConfigureServices(ServiceConfigurationContext context)
    {
        ProductServiceEfCoreEntityExtensionMappings.Configure();
    }

    public override void ConfigureServices(ServiceConfigurationContext context)
    {

        context.Services.AddMongoDbContext<ProductServiceDbContext>(options =>
        {
            options.AddDefaultRepositories(includeAllEntities: true);
            options.AddRepository<Product, MongoDbProductRepository>();
        });
    }
}

Update EfCoreProductRepository class to the following:

public class MongoDbProductRepository : MongoDbRepository<ProductServiceDbContext, Product, Guid>, IProductRepository
{
    public MongoDbProductRepository(IMongoDbContextProvider<ProductServiceDbContext> dbContextProvider)
        : base(dbContextProvider)
    {

    }

    public async Task<List<Product>> GetListAsync(
        string filterText = null,
        string name = null,
        float? priceMin = null,
        float? priceMax = null,
        string sorting = null,
        int maxResultCount = int.MaxValue,
        int skipCount = 0,
        CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)
    {
        var query = ApplyFilter(await GetMongoQueryableAsync(cancellationToken), filterText, name, priceMin, priceMax);
        query = query.OrderBy(string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(sorting) ? ProductConsts.GetDefaultSorting(false) : sorting);
        return await query.As<IMongoQueryable<Product>>().PageBy<Product, IMongoQueryable<Product>>(skipCount, maxResultCount).ToListAsync(cancellationToken);
    }

    public async Task<long> GetCountAsync(
        string filterText = null,
        string name = null,
        float? priceMin = null,
        float? priceMax = null,
        CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)
    {
        var query = ApplyFilter(await GetMongoQueryableAsync(cancellationToken), filterText, name, priceMin, priceMax);
        return await query.As<IMongoQueryable<Product>>().LongCountAsync(GetCancellationToken(cancellationToken));
    }

    protected virtual IQueryable<Product> ApplyFilter(
        IQueryable<Product> query,
        string filterText,
        string name = null,
        float? priceMin = null,
        float? priceMax = null)
    {
        return query
                .WhereIf(!string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(filterText), e => e.Name.Contains(filterText))
                .WhereIf(!string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(name), e => e.Name.Contains(name))
                .WhereIf(priceMin.HasValue, e => e.Price >= priceMin.Value)
                .WhereIf(priceMax.HasValue, e => e.Price <= priceMax.Value);
    }
}

Please complete it in all service projects.

Unit Tests

You can refer to MongoDB.Tests project to replace EntityFrameworkCore.Tests project with MongoDB.Tests project.

Define CollectionFixture in each test project. See this PR.
Add CollectionAttribute to each unit test class.

BookStoreDbMigrationService

Update BookStoreDbMigrationService class to the following:

public class BookStoreDbMigrationService : ITransientDependency
{
    private readonly ILogger<BookStoreDbMigrationService> _logger;
    private readonly ITenantRepository _tenantRepository;
    private readonly IDataSeeder _dataSeeder;

        _currentTenant = currentTenant;
        _unitOfWorkManager = unitOfWorkManager;
        _serviceProvider = serviceProvider;
    }

    public async Task MigrateAsync(CancellationToken cancellationToken)
    {
        await MigrateHostAsync(cancellationToken);
        await MigrateTenantsAsync(cancellationToken);
        _logger.LogInformation("Migration completed!");
    }

    private async Task MigrateHostAsync(CancellationToken cancellationToken)
    {

        await MigrateAllDatabasesAsync(null, cancellationToken);
        await SeedDataAsync();
    }

    private async Task MigrateTenantsAsync(CancellationToken cancellationToken)
    {
        _logger.LogInformation("Migrating tenants...");

        var tenants =
            await _tenantRepository.GetListAsync(includeDetails: true, cancellationToken: cancellationToken);
        var migratedDatabaseSchemas = new HashSet<string>();
        foreach (var tenant in tenants)
        {
            using (_currentTenant.Change(tenant.Id))

                    migratedDatabaseSchemas.AddIfNotContains(connectionString);
                }

                _logger.LogInformation($"Seeding tenant data: {tenant.Name} ({tenant.Id})");
                await SeedDataAsync();

            }

            foreach (var dbContext in dbContexts)
            {

}

You also need to update the constructors of all derived classes of DatabaseMigrationEventHandlerBase.

PendingMigrationsCheckerBase

Update PendingMigrationsCheckerBase class to the following:

public abstract class PendingMigrationsCheckerBase<TDbContext> : ITransientDependency
        where TDbContext : AbpMongoDbContext
{
    protected IUnitOfWorkManager UnitOfWorkManager { get; }
    protected IServiceProvider ServiceProvider { get; }
    protected ICurrentTenant CurrentTenant { get; }
    protected IDistributedEventBus DistributedEventBus { get; }
    protected string DatabaseName { get; }

    protected PendingMigrationsCheckerBase(
        IUnitOfWorkManager unitOfWorkManager,
        IServiceProvider serviceProvider,
        ICurrentTenant currentTenant,
        IDistributedEventBus distributedEventBus,
        string databaseName)
    {
        UnitOfWorkManager = unitOfWorkManager;
        ServiceProvider = serviceProvider;
        CurrentTenant = currentTenant;
        DistributedEventBus = distributedEventBus;
        DatabaseName = databaseName;
    }

    public virtual async Task CheckAsync()
    {
        using (CurrentTenant.Change(null))
        {
            // Create database tables if needed
            using (var uow = UnitOfWorkManager.Begin(requiresNew: true, isTransactional: false))
            {
                await DistributedEventBus.PublishAsync(
                        new ApplyDatabaseMigrationsEto
                        {
                            DatabaseName = DatabaseName
                        }
                    );

                await uow.CompleteAsync();
            }
        }
    }
}

Change the Connection Strings

MongoDB connection strings are different than SQL Server connection strings. So, check all appsettings.json files in your solution and replace the connection strings inside them.

Run the project

Now we are basically done, you can run the application according to the documentation.

We did not change the project name and folder in the guide, you can change it if you need, eg: BookStore.ProductService.EntityFrameworkCore to BookStore.ProductService.MongoDB.
