Can Meteor work with the back of Microsoft (i.e. EF and ASP.net MVC)

Question

Perhaps, like some of you, I'm inundated with a lot of JavaScript MV *. When I thought I was going to be a knockout, I found Backbone and then Ember.

I recently saw some demos on Meteor, and I'm very impressed. But I don’t know anything about Mongo and I "think Meteor requires this. (Http://www.meteor.com/screencast)

I have invested too much in the Entity Framework and ASP.net MVC to move away from them, but Meteor looks like the awesome MV * client side.

Does anyone know if Meteor can work with Microsoft's end (like EF and ASP.net MVC)?

Thanks.

UPDATE

Yes, I see the NuGet package for MongoDb, but to be honest, I'm only interested in the Meteor. Is this either a situation or nothing? The meteor looks like a bleeding edge, and I really would appreciate any links to documentation on its use with the MS database.

Answer 1

For those who still read this in 2013 or later, you can now run Node.js on Windows under IIS (just install support using the web platform installer).

There also versions of Meteor and MongoDB for Windows and Meteor support the deployment of a package that will work under a "clean" Node.js

Answer 2

As far as I know, you cannot. he is working on Node.js, in addition, there is a client implementation of the MongoDB API, which will be painful to implement using the EF backend. I think,

Answer 3

Yes, sort of. Meteor executes server-side code using node.js, but also provides some very useful client-side services such as patterns, routes, collections, session variables, and responsiveness.

The way to use it with the back-end (or any other language) .net is to create an api that can be accessed using Meteor. You can create Meteor collections in client code that does not require a mongodb instance. Just go into the api to download the collections with the correct data, and then you can use Meteor as usual.

However, for most applications, it would be much easier to implement everything in Meteor.
