Perl MongoDB module at EOL

Postby dimpase » 02 Nov 2021, 00:12

Hello,
are there plans to do something about Perl MongoDB module reaching its End Of Life?
E.g. it cannot even be installed as a standard package on Gentoo Linux.

(We ran into it on https://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/31527 - which is trying to use system-wide Polymake
installations on various systems).

Hello,

we do have plans about that but unfortunately none of that is implemented yet. We will probably switch to the MongoDB C++ driver.
In addition to that we might try to add a very basic interface that doesn't need any extra libraries but interfaces directly with our Rest API.
