Hello Kotlin community! This is my first post here hope it might help someone!

With the release of mongodb kotlin integration, I'm creating a template repository to see how easy to use it is
The repository can be found here: https://github.com/tkrason/ktor-koin-mongodb-template

Honestly, my first impressions are extremely positive and I would say that stack of:
• Ktor
• Koin
• MongoDB
seems to be super powerful! Especially the seemingly seamless saving of data classes.
Does anyone know about some projects that are already implementing similar stack?

[Pablichjenkov]

Can I, out of the box, deploy that stack on Google Cloud or Heroku?

[Tomáš Krasoň]

@Pablichjenkov I haven't played with deployment yet, but if you would be willing to try definitely let me know how it goes and I'll add it into the template

[Pablichjenkov]

Ah ok, I ask because I have never deployed a mongodb, not sure if this popular jvm hosting platforms have integrated it already. They usually offer easy db integrations so one doesn't have to do the DevOps side of it.

[Tomáš Krasoň]

One option might be using MongoDB Atlas 🤔

[Pablichjenkov]

Atlas 🤔, ok

[Marcus Cvjeticanin]

@Tomáš Krasoň Sweet! Merged now. Thanks for the contribution to the list! 🎉

I have a similar tech stack with jwt auth

[Marcus Cvjeticanin]

@Eman If you have it on GitHub consider to send a PR as well 🚀

[arnaud.giuliani]

great to see Koin & Ktor usage 🎉

[arnaud.giuliani]

can be interesting if we can provides some mongo stuff from Koin, out of the box like spring is doing, no? 🤔
