We currently communicate with MongoDB using the MongoDB NodeJS driver version 2.2.36 (https://www.npmjs.com/package/mongodb/v/2.2.36). A typical installation is to run a mvertes/alpine-mongo container embedding a MongoDB 3.6.5.
As we seek for performance improvement on the back-end database (requested by the studio Fabrique d'Images, Luxembourg) an update to support the latest MongoDB (6.18 at that time) would be necessary.
Some directives:
- support the new driver in a new separate
mongodb6.jsfile so we can keep backward compatibility (as the MongoDB major versions 4, 5, 6 have compatibility breaks) - run the tests with the new driver
- write documentation about potential changes implied regarding the damas-core layer
