# MongoDB

## Running MongoDB in a docker container

Open a terminal window and run:

```bash
docker run -d --name mongodb \
    --restart unless-stopped \
    -v ~/data-db/mongodb:/data/db \
    -v ~/data-db/mongodumps:/mongodumps \
    -p 27017:27017 mongo:3.4
```

{% hint style="info" %}
 Running databases in containers is not suggested for production environment
{% endhint %}

## On Windows

```bash
# create a volume
docker volume create --name=mongodata

# run mongodb
docker run -d --restart unless-stopped --name mongodb -v mongodata:/data/db -p 27017:27017 mongo:4
```

## Install MongoDB Compass

To manage your MongoDB instance we use Compass:

```bash
brew cask install mongodb-compass
```

## Create MongoDB container for build tests&#x20;

Open a terminal window and run:&#x20;

```bash
docker run -d --name mongodb-test \
    --restart unless-stopped \
    -p 127.0.0.1:37017:27017 mongo:3.4
```

Once it is running the shell will return the container id that looks like:&#x20;

```
0cd914b8310184808ce749ab3222e3fa480038952af39807f571b39a52e7e3f8
```

Now we should enter in the container and run the mongoShell to operate on the db:

```bash
docker exec -it mongodb-test bash
# we can now launch the mongoshell typing mongo
root@0cd914b83101:/# mongo
MongoDB shell version v3.4.15
connecting to: mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017
MongoDB server version: 3.4.15
Welcome to the MongoDB shell.

```

We are now ready to populate the db with some sample data for out tests suite.&#x20;

### Populating the Database

With the command `use DATABASE_NAME` MongoDB will create a new db called *DATABASE\_NAME*, then we can check if it worked typing `show dbs`, since it hasn't any document it doesn't show the created db, so we need to insert a document by typing `db.users.insert({"username": "daton", "password": "$2a$13$RnsMJ9C6LgZTOOYANiTKbO4vgnVo3MulMMfrL/Ly7E04sqSGmg8dO"})`, now typing `show dbs` return also the list of the newly created db.&#x20;

```bash
> use daton_auth
switched to db daton_auth
> show dbs
admin  0.000GB
local  0.000GB
> db.users.insert({"username": "daton", "password": "$2a$13$RnsMJ9C6LgZTOOYANiTKbO4vgnVo3MulMMfrL/Ly7E04sqSGmg8dO"})
WriteResult({ "nInserted" : 1 })
> show dbs
admin        0.000GB
local        0.000GB
daton_auth  0.000GB
>
```

We can now exit from the shell and the container, press ctrl+c then ctrl+d:

```
> ^C
bye
root@0cd914b83101:/# exit
```

We are now ready to build and push the image to docker registry.
