Accessing meteor production database in 2016

It seems the answer in this thread (Accessing Meteor production database) does not work anymore when you want to access a meteor production database in 2016. I want to acces

Answer 1

Since Meteor stopped supporting the use of .meteor domains and every developer needs to get his hosting by himself, I found a way accessing the remote's database by using mup or mupx. I wrote it in this post: https://stackoverflow.com/a/37439315/2908071

I hope this will help future people.

Answer 2

You are trying to connect to a database version 3.0 while your meteor mongo command still use the version 2.6.7 of mongo

Try this workaround :

• Install Mongo version (3.x) directly on your machine.

• Then run this command (should work on osx, linux and windows when sed is installed):

  mongo `meteor mongo --url XXX.meteor.com | sed 's/mongodb:\/\//-u /' | sed 's/:/ -p /' | sed 's/@/ /'`
