Mongodb model helpers

A convenient superclass and some helpers for stuff you want to keep in mongodb.

Notes

• Collection-level operations are accessible though the .collection, eg. MyModel.collection.find_one(). It’s verbose, but explicit is better than implicit.

• All documents returned by raw will be instantiated as models. To get the raw json, use raw(), eg. MyModel.collection.raw().find_one().

• Document-level operations are ported down directly to the model, eg. m = MyModel(); m.save().

• You can’t access top-level document keys though dot notation on the models after they’ve been retrieved from the database. urmurmurm.

• There is no model-level update, since it clashes with dict’s update. Use save, or Model.collection.update(instance, …).

• The model-level remove is restricted to only remove the model’s document.

• No special ref support… yet.

• Tests are desperately lacking. Help!
