# MongoDB integration
To configure OpenIddict to use MongoDB as the database for applications, authorizations, scopes and tokens, you'll need to:
- **Reference the `OpenIddict.MongoDb` package**:
```xml
```
- **Configure OpenIddict to use the MongoDB stores**:
```csharp
services.AddOpenIddict()
.AddCore(options =>
{
// Note: to use a remote server, call the MongoClient constructor overload
// that accepts a connection string or an instance of MongoClientSettings.
options.UseMongoDb()
.UseDatabase(new MongoClient().GetDatabase("openiddict"));
});
```
Alternatively, you can register the `IMongoDatabase` instance as a service:
```csharp
services.AddOpenIddict()
.AddCore(options =>
{
options.UseMongoDb();
});
// Note: to use a remote server, call the MongoClient constructor overload
// that accepts a connection string or an instance of MongoClientSettings.
services.AddSingleton(new MongoClient().GetDatabase("shared-database-instance"));
```
- **Create indexes to improve performance** (recommended): for that, you can use the following script to
initialize the database and create the indexes used by the OpenIddict entities:
```csharp
using System.Threading;
using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;
using Microsoft.Extensions.Options;
using MongoDB.Driver;
using OpenIddict.MongoDb;
using OpenIddict.MongoDb.Models;
var services = new ServiceCollection();
services.AddOpenIddict()
.AddCore(options => options.UseMongoDb());
services.AddSingleton(new MongoClient(
"mongodb://localhost:27017").GetDatabase("openiddict"));
var provider = services.BuildServiceProvider();
var context = provider.GetRequiredService();
var options = provider.GetRequiredService<
IOptionsMonitor>().CurrentValue;
var database = await context.GetDatabaseAsync(CancellationToken.None);
var applications = database.GetCollection(
options.ApplicationsCollectionName);
await applications.Indexes.CreateManyAsync(new[]
{
new CreateIndexModel(
Builders.IndexKeys.Ascending(
application => application.ClientId),
new CreateIndexOptions
{
Unique = true
}),
new CreateIndexModel(
Builders.IndexKeys.Ascending(
application => application.PostLogoutRedirectUris),
new CreateIndexOptions
{
Background = true
}),
new CreateIndexModel(
Builders.IndexKeys.Ascending(
application => application.RedirectUris),
new CreateIndexOptions
{
Background = true
})
});
var authorizations = database.GetCollection(
options.AuthorizationsCollectionName);
await authorizations.Indexes.CreateOneAsync(
new CreateIndexModel(
Builders.IndexKeys
.Ascending(authorization => authorization.ApplicationId)
.Ascending(authorization => authorization.Scopes)
.Ascending(authorization => authorization.Status)
.Ascending(authorization => authorization.Subject)
.Ascending(authorization => authorization.Type),
new CreateIndexOptions
{
Background = true
}));
var scopes = database.GetCollection(
options.ScopesCollectionName);
await scopes.Indexes.CreateOneAsync(new CreateIndexModel(
Builders.IndexKeys.Ascending(scope => scope.Name),
new CreateIndexOptions
{
Unique = true
}));
var tokens = database.GetCollection(
options.TokensCollectionName);
await tokens.Indexes.CreateManyAsync(new[]
{
new CreateIndexModel(
Builders.IndexKeys.Ascending(
token => token.ReferenceId),
new CreateIndexOptions
{
// Note: partial filter expressions are not supported on Azure Cosmos DB.
// As a workaround, the expression and the unique constraint can be removed.
PartialFilterExpression =
Builders.Filter.Exists(
token => token.ReferenceId),
Unique = true
}),
new CreateIndexModel(
Builders.IndexKeys
.Ascending(token => token.ApplicationId)
.Ascending(token => token.Status)
.Ascending(token => token.Subject)
.Ascending(token => token.Type),
new CreateIndexOptions
{
Background = true
})
});
```
