I found a way to combine two very powerful toys that I am playing with :
Mongodb - noSQL database that is shaping web these days and Underscorejs - which make me fell in love with functional programming.
If you don't know already, mongo is using document/oriented key/value way of storing data in JSON format ( BSON - binary JSON under the hood ).
Underscore has a tons of functions that works with literals like plain JS objects and arrays ( which are basic building blocks of mongo collection ). Also, underscore is environment agnostic. That means that it is not dependent on interfaces like DOM. It is important just to execute underscore functions under Javascripot interpreter. Mongo shell is actually javascript shell, so underscore fits great.
To import JS code in mongo, open your .mongorc.js file, that is located in /home/ directory ( Linux/MacOSx), and place any script inside. It can be whole library, like underscore. Now, from terminal, open mongo shell, and type load (".mongorc.js"). Now all code inside that file is avaliable to mongo documents.
Play yourself and have fun.
