NoSQL database connector

Summary

Connect StudioCMS to MongoDB and other NoSQL databases

Motivation

Many modern applications use NoSQL databases to store contents, and the document model used in MongoDB is obviously the best choice to store documents and media objects, which are the main content of a CMS.

It would be useful to have a DB connector abstraction with agnostic CRUD methods, which could be translated in any SQL or NoSQL query language.

Hey @neoshadow81! For our database connection we use Kysely under the hood. Here is a list of Officially available dialects: https://kysely.dev/docs/dialects

Adding support for another type of connection layer outside of Kysely compatible SQL, would more/less require us to fully rewrite our entire SDK and parts of our back-end to facilitate, this is currently outside of the scope of the StudioCMS project.

Now that being said, If you are able to find, or create a Kysely-compatible Dialect adapter for it, than it could be done! I was unable to find such a dialect adapter on the web.

Closing this as not planned, as it is out of the scope of our current project.
