Depreciated Network dependency

[esjmb]

Hi,

with stackage lts-13.5, this driver is now throwing up warnings of the following form:

In the use of type constructor or class ‘PortID’
   (imported from Database.MongoDB.Connection, but defined in Network):
   Deprecated: "The high level Network interface is no longer supported. Please use Network.Socket."

suggests an impending break...

This is now broken. The PortID has been removed from network 3.x, causing compilation pains.

[VictorDenisov]

How do you build with 3.x? bson depends on < 2.9. And the latest stackage nightly build is 2.8.0.0.

This has been fixed in the latest mongoDB release. http://hackage.haskell.org/package/mongoDB-2.5.0.0

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I think 21cf023 also removed the support for unix domain socket. I see nowhere this got mentioned in the changelog.

Any chance it would be added back?

[scott-fleischman]

We could turn PortId from a newtype into a sum type that supports UnixSocket and use the code here for connections.

So something like

data PortID
  = PortNumber N.PortNumber
  | UnixSocket String
  deriving (Show, Eq, Ord)

Any thoughts @VictorDenisov ?

I got a dedicated commit: 4d1b2a0

Seems reasonable to me. Maybe make a PR for it?
