rest-on-mongo (v2.4.0) is a Node.js package that provides a REST API layer over MongoDB, enabling direct CRUD operations via HTTP. It supports single or multiple databases with environment-based configuration, authentication via AUTH_TOKEN, read-only modes, and BSON data types. It offers a built-in Express server or library usage. Compared to alternatives, it supports bulk updates and multiple databases, but is REST-ish rather than pure REST. Release cadence is sporadic, with v2.0 introducing breaking changes in BSON handling.
