connect robomongo to mongoDB docker container

Question

I\'m running a NodeJS App with docker-compose. Everything works fine and I can see all my data by connecting to Mongo inside container. But when I connect to RoboMo

Answer 1

You should do a Robomongo SSH tunnel connection to MongoDB inside docker container. First of all you should install a ssh server inside your docker container.

https://docs.docker.com/engine/examples/running_ssh_service/

After that you should configure your connection in Robomongo. Inside "Connection Settings" there are configuration tabs of your Robomongo Connection.

Go to "SSH" Tab and configure your SSH connection to the docker container. After that go to "Connection" Tab and configure your connection to MongoDB as if it was in localhost scope.
