The Pipedream Utils app is a set of pre-built functions that streamline common tasks in your workflows. It acts like a Swiss Army knife for developers, providing essential tools such as format conversion, date manipulation, and text processing. By leveraging these functions, you can reduce the boilerplate code needed for routine operations, speeding up the development of intricate automations. The Helper Functions API can be a game changer when it comes to tasks like parsing dates in user-friendly formats, encoding and decoding data, or generating UUIDs, making them more efficient and less error-prone.

The MongoDB API provides powerful capabilities to interact with a MongoDB database, allowing you to perform CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations, manage databases, and execute sophisticated queries. With Pipedream, you can harness these abilities to automate tasks, sync data across various apps, and react to events in real-time. It’s a combo that’s particularly potent for managing data workflows, syncing application states, or triggering actions based on changes to your data.
import mongodb from 'mongodb'
export default defineComponent({
props: {
mongodb: {
type: "app",
app: "mongodb",
},
collection: {
type: "string"
},
filter: {
type: "object"
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
const MongoClient = mongodb.MongoClient
const {
database,
hostname,
username,
password,
} = this.mongodb.$auth
const url = `mongodb+srv://${username}:${password}@${hostname}/test?retryWrites=true&w=majority`
const client = await MongoClient.connect(url, {
useNewUrlParser: true,
useUnifiedTopology: true
})
const db = client.db(database)
const results = await db.collection(this.collection).find(this.filter).toArray();
$.export('results', results);
await client.close()
},
})
