Run Mongo with Docker

readme.md

Run Mongo using Docker

This guide will get you up and running with Mongo

Download latest Image

docker pull mongo:X.X.X

Installing and Running Mongo in Detached Mode (In Background and able to connect from server)

docker run -d -p 27017-27019:27017-27019 --name mongoXXX mongo:X.X.X

latest version as of this writing is 4.2.5 which we would name mongo425 like so:

docker run -d -p 27017-27019:27017-27019 --name mongo425 mongo:4.2.5

Connecting to Mongo Shell

docker exec -it mongo425 bash

then run:

> mongo

> show dbs

> use task-management

This will first show us the current databases and then we create a new database called task-management
