How do I create a Mongo replicaset connection with Casbah?


I am a newbie to scala and casbah. I am trying to create a mongo replicaset connection using casbah. This is my code. I am pretty sure about my mongo replica setup being correct. When I create a connection through ruby, it works great. Im missing something silly here. When I googled, I got this documentation and which is what I am using for reference.

http://api.mongodb.org/scala/casbah/current/scaladoc/com/mongodb/casbah/MongoConnection$.html

import com.mongodb.casbah.Imports._ 

object MongoAnalysisDB {
  def main(args: Array[String]) = {
    //that connection
    val addresses = List("127.0.0.1:27018", "127.0.0.1:27019", "127.0.0.1:27020")
    val mongoConn = MongoConnection(replicaSetSeeds: addresses) 
    val mongoDB = mongoConn("vimana-sandbox-dup") 
    val mongoColl = mongoConn("vimana-sandbox-dup")("utilization.metrics.cycledowntime") 


    //that query
    val loadEvent = MongoDBObject("period" -> "PT1H") 
    val cursor = mongoColl.find(loadEvent)
    val mtcevent = mongoColl.findOne(loadEvent)

    //that document
    println(mtcevent)
  }
}

I get the following error.

Solution

  • Wrapping up the ip string and port into ServerAddress worked.

    import com.mongodb._ 
    import com.mongodb.casbah.Imports._ 
    
    object MongoAnalysisDB {
      def main(args: Array[String]) = {
        //that connection
        val addresses = List(new ServerAddress("127.0.0.1" , 27018),  new ServerAddress("127.0.0.1" , 27019),  new ServerAddress( "127.0.0.1" , 27020 ))
        val mongoConn = MongoConnection(addresses) 
        val mongoDB = mongoConn("vimana-sandbox-dup") 
        val mongoColl = mongoConn("vimana-sandbox-dup")("utilization.metrics.cycledowntime") 
    
    
        //that query
        val loadEvent = MongoDBObject("period" -> "PT1H") 
        val cursor = mongoColl.find(loadEvent)
        val mtcevent = mongoColl.findOne(loadEvent)
    
        //that document
        println(mtcevent)
      }
    }
