Pull request overview
This PR refactors the test infrastructure to use mongodb-memory-server for in-process MongoDB provisioning instead of relying on CI-managed MongoDB containers. However, there's a critical discrepancy between the PR description and implementation: the description claims MongoDB support is "optional" and "non-invasive," but the code makes mongoUri a required field that will cause runtime errors when not provided.
Changes:
- Added
mongodb-memory-serveras a dev dependency and integrated it into test infrastructure - Modified
src/plugins/init-mongo.tsto unconditionally register MongoDB (contrary to "optional" claim) - Changed
AppOptionsto include required MongoDB configuration (not optional as claimed) - Removed CI MongoDB container steps from GitHub Actions workflow
- Removed test timeout flag and downgraded ESLint from v10 to v9

The test timeout flag (--test-timeout=5000) has been removed from the test script. With the MongoDB memory server being created per test, initialization could take longer than the default Node.js test timeout (30 seconds should be fine). However, if tests start failing due to timeout issues during MongoDB initialization, consider adding this flag back or increasing it. Monitor test execution times after this change.

The plugin unconditionally decorates the fastify instance with collections and creates an index on the example collection. If MongoDB support becomes truly optional (as described in the PR), these operations should be conditional. When mongoUri is not provided, this will fail because fastify.mongo.db will be undefined. Add a guard to check if the MongoDB plugin was registered before decorating and creating indexes.

The AppOptions type includes InitMongoPluginOptions without making it optional (Partial wrapper). This means every consumer of AppOptions must provide a mongoUri, contradicting the PR's stated goal of optional MongoDB support. To align with the PR description, change this to: Partial<InitMongoPluginOptions> & AuthPluginOptions so that mongoUri becomes an optional field in AppOptions.

The PR description states "optional MongoDB support" and mentions "Registers @fastify/mongodb only when mongoUri is provided", but the implementation makes mongoUri a required field. The plugin unconditionally registers @fastify/mongodb without checking if mongoUri is provided. To make MongoDB truly optional, mongoUri should be optional in the type definition (mongoUri?: string), and the plugin should conditionally register based on whether the URI is provided. Consider adding a guard condition at the start of the plugin to skip registration when opts.mongoUri is undefined.

The mongoUri field is retrieved as required using getOption with the non-null assertion operator (!). However, based on the PR description stating MongoDB should be "optional", this should use getOption with required=false to allow undefined values. This should be: mongoUri: getOption("MONGO_URI", false) without the non-null assertion.
Current tests depended on CI-managed MongoDB containers, with cleanup workarounds that could still leak state across runs. This change moves test MongoDB provisioning in-process via
mongodb-memory-server, and aligns template MongoDB wiring so services can opt in cleanly.Test infrastructure: in-process MongoDB
