Base docker image to run a MongoDB database server
To create the image lastbackend/mongodb, execute the following command on the lb-docker-mongodb folder:
docker build -t lastbackend/mongodb .
Run the following command to start MongoDB:
docker run -d -p 27017:27017 -p 28017:28017 lastbackend/mongodb
The first time that you run your container, a new random password will be set. To get the password, check the logs of the container by running:
docker logs <CONTAINER_ID>
You will see an output like the following:
--------------------------------------- MongoDB ----------------------------------------
+-++-+ mongo admin -u admin -p DFZmFTlDe34rsjiDstPHKezJ --host «host» --port «port»
| LB |
+-++-+ Please remember to change the above password!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In this case, DFZmFTlDe34rsjiDstPHKezJ is the password set.
You can then connect to MongoDB:
mongo admin -u admin -p 5elsT6KtjrqV
Done!
If you want to use a preset password instead of a random generated one, you can
set the environment variable PASS to your specific password when running the container:
docker run -d -p 27017:27017 -p 28017:28017 -e USER=admin -e PASS="mypass" lastbackend/mongodb
--------------------------------------- MongoDB ----------------------------------------
+-++-+ mongo admin -u admin -p «password» --host «host» --port «port»
| LB |
+-++-+ Please remember to change the above password!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You can now test your new admin password:
mongo admin -u admin -p mypass
curl --user admin:«password» --digest http://localhost:28017/
If you want run MongoDB without password you can set tge environment variable AUTH to
specific if you want password or not when running the container:
docker run -d -p 27017:27017 -p 28017:28017 -e AUTH=no lastbackend/mongodb
By default is "yes".
docker pull lastbackend/mongodb
