Itential adapter to connect to mongo

## Using this Adapter

The `adapter.js` file contains the calls the adapter makes available to the rest of the Itential Platform. The API detailed for these calls should be available through JSDOC. The following is a brief summary of the calls.

### Generic Adapter Calls

These are adapter methods that IAP or you might use. There are some other methods not shown here that might be used for internal adapter functionality.

    <th bgcolor="lightgrey" style="padding:15px"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">Description</span></th>
    <th bgcolor="lightgrey" style="padding:15px"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">Workflow?</span></th>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td style="padding:15px">connect()</td>
    <td style="padding:15px">This call is run when the Adapter is first loaded by he Itential Platform. It validates the properties have been provided correctly.</td>
    <td style="padding:15px">No</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td style="padding:15px">healthCheck(callback)</td>
    <td style="padding:15px">This call ensures that the adapter can communicate with <%= metaInfo.title %>. The actual call that is used is defined in the adapter properties and .system entities action.json file.</td>
    <td style="padding:15px">No</td>
  </tr>

### Specific Adapter Calls

Specific adapter calls are built based on the API of the <%= metaInfo.title %>. The Adapter Builder creates the proper method comments for generating JS-DOC for the adapter. This is the best way to get information on the calls.
