mongoid configuration on ruby without framework

I try to write business logic of my application. It is all ruby classes. There is no database or no UI framework like Rails, Sinatra. I only have a Gem_file on business logic and, Gem_file only contain "mini_test" gem. I use mini_test for testing business logic. Now, I need to add a database to the system. How can I do this? mongoid configuration is made in application.file on Rails. But ,I don't use Rails or any other framework. Is there anyway to make configuration of mongoid without framework like Rails, Sinatra. I hope I can explain my problem. Also, I add my codes in below:

this is my context-

class HeadTeacherDefineAcademicYearContext
  attr_reader :person, :academicyear

  def initialize(person, academicyear)
    @person, @academicyear = person, academicyear
    @person.extend HeadTeacher
  end

  def call
   @person.define_academic_year @academicyear
  end
end

this is my role module

module HeadTeacher
  def define_academic_year(academicyear)
     #i write db save process here using any database
  end
end

my model class

class AcademicYear
  attr_accessor :year
end

Add gem "mongoid", "~> 3.0.0" to your Gemfile Then put configuration yaml file to your project with contents like this:

development:
  sessions: 
    default:
      database: mongoid
      hosts:
        - localhost:27017

Then use Mongoid.load!("path/to/your/mongoid.yml", :development) in your app.

In every class you want to save objects to DB you have to include Mongoid::Document.

So your example becomes:

class HeadTeacherDefineAcademicYearContext
  attr_reader :person, :academicyear
  field :person, type: String
  field :academicyear, type: Date
  ...
end

You should better check mongoid docs for stuff to do next.

You have to include gem 'mongoid' in your Gemfile and install it. After that, you can require and initialize Mongoid where you need it:

require 'mongoid'
Mongoid.load!("mongoid.yml", :development)

It expects a mongoid.yml file with configuration. Examlpe:

development:
   sessions:
     default:
      database: myapp_development
      hosts:
        - localhost:27017

Of course, you can use another context than :development, maybe assign it via a environment variable. Now, add Mongoid::Document to your model:

class AcademicYear
  include Mongoid::Document

  field :year, type: Integer
end
