Description

Befor starting, please check your MongoDB Service, if it's running or not.

Follow the steps given below.

After installing MongoDB in your system, let's test some DB query in to MongoDB environment.

>Use mydb <press enter>

switch to my db

For other commands, please refer to the image given below.

WPF

This Application shows how the basic CRUD opration on MongoDB runs by using wpf C# and .NET with WPF GridView control.

In this Application, you have the functionality given below.

  1. You can configure the Local and server based mongodb configuration.
  2. Insert the new record in to the database collection.
  3. You can select the particular record.
  4. After selecting the particular record, you can update the selected record.
  5. After selecting the particular record, you can delete the selected record.
  6. You can select the record by, using the WPF GridView control etc.

It is immediately reflected in the GridView after any transaction on MongoDB by our Application.

You have to add MongoDB driver DLL for .NET.

WPF

To downlaod, .NET driver DLL, you can refer the link given below.

https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-csharp-driver/releases

I had already inserted it in to the debug folder but if you have any problem, you can get from there.

After the execution, the Application image is given below.

WPF

This is all the basic code, which I am using for simple CRUD operations in WPF C# and .NET, please go through the code.

C#

  1. using MongoDB.Bson;
  2. using MongoDB.Driver;
  3. using MongoDB.Shared;
  4. using MongoDB.Bson.Serialization.Attributes;
  5. using MongoDB.Driver.Builders;
  7. MongoClient mongo = new MongoClient("mongodb://localhost");
  8. MongoServer server ;
  9. MongoDatabase database;
  10. MongoCollection<info> _infos;
  12. //This all the global variable in your project.
  14. //we will initiate this all in to the intialization method
  15. server = mongo.GetServer();
  16. server.Connect();
  17. database= server.GetDatabase("mydb");
  20. //"mydb" is the mongodb database name in my system //where database is there for curd opration.
  21. //for insert the record in db
  23. public void addinfo(info _info)
  24. {
  26. _info.Id = ObjectId.GenerateNewId();
  28. _infos.Insert(_info);
  29. }
  31. //For binding the gridview
  33. public void bindgrid()
  34. {
  35. // bind the existing info collection<table> record in grid
  36. _infos = database.GetCollection<info>("info");
  37. infogrid.DataContext = _infos.FindAll();
  38. infogrid.ItemsSource = _infos.FindAll();
  39. }
  42. //update the data
  44. public void updateInfo(info _info)
  45. {
  46. IMongoQuery query = Query.EQ("info_id", _info.info_id);
  47. IMongoUpdate update = Update
  49. .Set("firstname", _info.firstname)
  51. .Set("lastname", _info.lastname)
  52. .Set("age", _info.age);
  53. SafeModeResult result = _infos.Update(query, update);
  55. }
  57. //delete the record
  59. IMongoQuery query = Query.EQ("info_id", _info.info_id);
  60. SafeModeResult result = _infos.Remove(query); bindgrid();

Model, which I have created for mapping of the info collection <table>

C#
  1. publicclass info {
  2. [BsonId]
  3. publicBson.BsonObjectId Id {
  4. get;
  5. set;
  6. }
  7. publicint info_id {
  8. get;
  9. set;
  10. }
