@rebasepro/server-mongo implements Rebase’s BackendBootstrapper against MongoDB. The REST API, the generated SDK, the admin panel and the auth surface all work over it.

Experimental, and it does not have row-level security

Read this section before choosing it. MongoDB has no equivalent of PostgreSQL’s row-level security, so the isolation model the rest of Rebase rests on does not apply here. securityRules on a collection are not enforced by the database; authorization is whatever your own code checks.

That is not a gap waiting to be filled — it is a property of the engine. If per-row authorization enforced below the application is why you are looking at Rebase, use the PostgreSQL driver — Backend Setup is where it is configured, and Security Rules is what it buys you.

Installation

pnpm add @rebasepro/server-mongo

import { rebase } from "@rebasepro/server";
import { createMongoBootstrapper } from "@rebasepro/server-mongo";

rebase({
    backend: createMongoBootstrapper({ url: process.env.DATABASE_URL! })
});

Set DATABASE_URL to a MongoDB connection string (mongodb://… or mongodb+srv://…).

What works

Data API	The full REST surface: list, get, create, update, delete, filters, ordering, pagination
Generated SDK	The same typed client as on Postgres
Realtime	Change streams. This needs a replica set — a standalone mongod has no oplog to tail, so realtime is silently unavailable there
History	Snapshot-based, the same shape as on Postgres
Auth	The full auth surface, with its repositories stored in MongoDB
Admin panel	Collections, forms, relations in the UI, storage fields

What is different

• No row-level security. See the warning above. This is the important one.
• No SQL surface. Studio’s SQL editor, the RLS policy editor and pnpm rls:check are Postgres features and are not available.
• No relational integrity. A relation is a stored reference the application resolves; there is no foreign key, so nothing at the database level stops a dangling one.
• No rebase db push / generate / migrate. MongoDB has no schema to migrate. Collections appear as documents are written.

Choosing between the two

Take MongoDB when the data is genuinely document-shaped and the authorization model lives in your application anyway. Take PostgreSQL when you want the database itself to be the thing enforcing who sees which row — which is the argument Rebase makes everywhere else on this site.
