MongoDB sample for Ktor Server

An application for creating, editing and deleting articles that uses MongoDB as a storage.

Running the Application

Execute this command to run the sample:

./gradlew run

Then, you can open http://localhost:8080/ in a browser to create, edit, and delete articles.

By default, the application connects to a MongoDB instance running on localhost:27017. You can start one using the provided docker-compose.yaml:

docker-compose up

Running Tests

Tests use Testcontainers to automatically start a MongoDB container, so you don't need to manually set up any infrastructure:

./gradlew test

The MongoDB container will be automatically started before tests run and stopped afterwards.
