@phenomlab yes, NEDB is no longer maintained, I haven't found a replacement for it yet, but, I've used it recently to develop a chrome extension and it worked 100% without issues for me. I could look for another mongodb replacement that has persistent file storage. Doing some more research about this I guess it's not as simple as I was thinking, I guess there can be issues with "mongo api level". I found Tingodb which I think is still active, and supports mongo api 1.4... shoot nevermind, it looks like that one is abandoned too. Guessing this is just not feasible and I'd need a real mongodb server.

Mongodb local file storage using nedb for nodejs -
Mongodb local file storage using nedb for nodejsHi, I love the simplicity and responsiveness of nodebb and I'm interested in using the forum for a very small community/project. If I don't want to run a full on mongodb server, could it be possible to use something like NEDB which acts just like mongodb with same methods, but can save and persist the database as a local file. I am considering this approach due to shared hosting and I understand you strongly discourage such use but it's what I have to work with and the project is very small. Just would like your thoughts before I waste a bunch of time going down that path. Thanks
