How to export all collections in MongoDB?

Question

I want to export all collections in MongoDB by the command:

mongoexport -d dbname -o Mongo.json

The result is:
No collection specifie

Answer 1

I needed the Windows batch script version. This thread was useful, so I thought I'd contribute my answer to it too.

mongo "{YOUR SERVER}/{YOUR DATABASE}" --eval "rs.slaveOk();db.getCollectionNames()" --quiet>__collections.txt
for /f %%a in ('type __collections.txt') do @set COLLECTIONS=%%a
for %%a in (%COLLECTIONS%) do mongoexport --host {YOUR SERVER} --db {YOUR DATABASE} --collection %%a --out data\%%a.json
del __collections.txt

I had some issues using set /p COLLECTIONS=<__collections.txt, hence the convoluted for /f method.
