tutum-docker-mongodb

Base docker image to run a MongoDB database server

Usage

To create the image tutum/mongodb, execute the following command on the tutum-mongodb folder:

    docker build -t tutum/mongodb .

Running the MongoDB server

Run the following command to start MongoDB:

    docker run -d -p 27017:27017 -p 28017:28017 tutum/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:

    ========================================================================
    You can now connect to this MongoDB server using:

        mongo admin -u admin -p 5elsT6KtjrqV --host <host> --port <port>

    Please remember to change the above password as soon as possible!
    ========================================================================

In this case, 5elsT6KtjrqV is the password set. You can then connect to MongoDB:

     mongo admin -u admin -p 5elsT6KtjrqV

Done!

Setting a specific password for the admin account

If you want to use a preset password instead of a randomly generated one, you can set the environment variable MONGODB_PASS to your specific password when running the container:

    docker run -d -p 27017:27017 -p 28017:28017 -e MONGODB_PASS="mypass" tutum/mongodb

You can now test your new admin password:

    mongo admin -u admin -p mypass
    curl --user admin:mypass --digest http://localhost:28017/

Run MongoDB without password

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 tutum/mongodb

By default is "yes".
