    Description

      http://docs.mongodb.org/ecosystem/tools/http-interfaces/

      For Node.js we recommend this plugin for people that want a http api for MongoDB: https://github.com/tdegrunt/mongodb-rest

      While that one still works, it's been unmaintained for 2 years and even the github page has an "abandoned" tag in the title.

      I found the following 3 alternatives. My recommendation would be to list all of these:
      https://github.com/cordazar/crest (simple, based on restify)
      https://github.com/enyo/mongo-rest (based on Mongoose and Express)
      http://webapplog.com/tutorial-node-js-and-mongodb-json-rest-api-server-with-mongoskin-and-express-js/

      I used the crest plugin with great success.
