How to install MongoDB in Cpanel Server

We had a chance to install MongoDB on one of our Cpanel-based servers. So, we just wanted to write down how to install, create and import MongoDB. Also, we will show you the steps required for the installation and how to create and import MongoDB.

MongoDB is an open-source document database written in C++. Moreover, it provides high performance, high availability, and automatic scaling. 

MongoDB was developed by 10gen, a New York-based organization. It initially developed as a PAAS (Platform As A Service). Later in 2009, it was introduced as an Open source database server, maintained and supported by MongoDB Inc.

How to create MongoDB:

  1. Run the command: mongosh
  2. Create DB using the command: use DATABASE_NAME
  3. Create collections or tables:  db.createCollection(“COLLECTION_NAME”)
  4. List all databases: show dbs
  5. List all collections in a particular db: show collections
  6. View data in a collection: db.COLLECTION_NAME.find()  
  7. Create User 

      Creates a new user for the database on which the method is run. db.createUser() returns a duplicate user error if the user already exists on the database.

db.createUser( { user: “USER_NAME", pwd: “PASSWORD", roles: [ { role: "readWrite", db: "DATABASE_NAME" }, ] } )

  8.  Returns user information for a specified user: db.getUser()

  db.getUser(“USER_NAME”)

 9.  Drop user:  db.dropUser(“USER_NAME”, {w: “majority”, wtimeout: 5000})

10. Returns information for all the users in the database: db.getUsers()

How to import MongoDB:

  1. Uploads the full db zip file into the ‘dump’ folder in the root
  2. Unzip the file
  3. Then run the command: mongorestore  –db DATABASE_NAME dump/folder_name

MongoDB is a popular NoSQL database solution that suits modern development requirements. MongoDB is a powerful, flexible, and secure database management system that can be the right choice of a database in certain use cases, but it may not always be the best choice.
