MongoDB (27017)

Usage

1. MongoDB Shell

Install MongoDB Shell. If you're using a modern MongoDB deployment, you might need mongosh (the newer Mongo shell):

# MongoDB shell
sudo apt update
sudo apt install mongodb-clients

# Mongosh
curl -fsSL https://pgp.mongodb.com/server-6.0.asc | sudo gpg -o /usr/share/keyrings/mongodb-server-6.0.gpg --dearmor

echo "deb [ signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/mongodb-server-6.0.gpg ] https://repo.mongodb.org/apt/debian bullseye/mongodb-org/6.0 main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb-org-6.0.list

sudo apt update

sudo apt install -y mongodb-mongosh

2. URI

The hosted MongoDB service should give you a connection string, typically in this format:

mongodb+srv://<username>:<password>@<cluster-url>/<dbname>?retryWrites=true&w=majority

# non-SRV (direct host and port access):
mongodb://<username>:<password>@<host>:<port>/<dbname>

3. Connect

Connect using the shell (wrap the connection string in single or double quotes if there are special characters):

# mongo (older shell)
mongo "mongodb://username:password@host:port/dbname"

# mongosh (preferred):
mongosh "mongodb+srv://username:password@cluster-url/dbname"
