Deployment of MongoDB¶

In this section we are going to explain how to install a single MongoDB service. More information can be found in MongoDB

Note

In MongoDB the databases and tables are created automatically.

Remember that MongoDB is case sensitive.

Install MongoDB¶

Download the package file for you specific distribution. They can be found in http://www.mongodb.org/downloads.
Uncompress the file.
```
tar cvfz <filename>
```

Create DB directory

sudo mkdir -p /data/db/
sudo chown `id -u` /data/db     #The owner must be the user that is going to execute mongodb server

Run MongoDB

mongod --port 23000 --dbpath /data/db/ --fork --logpath=/data/db/mongo.log

Test MongoDB using the client.

$ mongo --port 23000

> db.foo.save ( {a:1} )
> db.foo.find ()
