See the lua-resty-redis, lua-resty-memcached, and lua-resty-mysql
libraries as examples:

    https://github.com/agentzh/lua-resty-redis
    https://github.com/agentzh/lua-resty-memcached
    https://github.com/agentzh/lua-resty-mysql

bigplum has been working on lua-resty-mongol:

I'm not sure about its state, but you can read the document or contact
the author directly.
