`papr` is a lightweight library built around the MongoDB NodeJS driver, written in TypeScript.

`papr` uses MongoDB's [JSON Schema validation](https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/core/schema-validation/#json-schema) feature to enable validation of document writes at runtime (requires MongoDB 3.6+).

`papr` has a familiar API - if you have used the raw `mongodb` methods to query and change documents before, then you already know how to use `papr`.

## Sample code

<!-- prettier-ignore -->
```ts
import Papr, { schema, types } from 'papr';

const papr = new Papr();

const User = papr.model('users', schema({
  age: types.number(),
  firstName: types.string({ required: true }),
  lastName: types.string({ required: true }),
}));

const johnWick = await User.find({ firstName: 'John', lastName: 'Wick' });
```
