Question

Trying to set up MongoDB for my Node.JS application. I running this command:

mongo \"mongodb+srv://cluster0-gjc2u.mongodb.net/test\"  --username 

        

Answer 1

So you have to take care of 2 things.

1) First off, having mongodb in your $PATH, create a .bash_profile under the home folder if you don't have it already, then insert the following.(For Ubuntu)

export PATH="$PATH:/usr/bin/mongo" Make sure you place the location of mongo on your computer. If you don't know the location, type whereis mongo on the terminal. After saving, type source ~/.bashrc in the terminal.

2) Lastly, copy the connect link from the mongodb atlas, and when asked for username and password

please provide the credentials set to access the database not the mongdb atlas account.
