Managing MongoDB databases with Mongo-express

Previous words

This article will describe in detail a web-based MONGODB database management tool developed with Nodejs mongo-express

Installation

First, the global installation of the Mongo-express package

NPM install-g mongo-express

Next, use the following command to locate the Mongo-express installation directory

NPM list-g mongo-express

The output results under WIN10 are:

C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Roaming\npm

Then go to the Node_modules/mongo-express directory under the directory, locate the Config.js file, copy the file, and name the Config.default.js file

In this way, the Config.default.js file is saved in the default configuration, while Config.js is custom configured

Configuration

Next, modify the configuration file Config.js

...if(Process.env.VCAP_SERVICES) {varDblabel ='mongodb-2.4'; varenv =Json.parse (Process.env.VCAP_SERVICES); if(Env[dblabel]) {MONGO= env[dblabel][0].credentials; }} Else{MONGO={db:'Blogs', Host:"118.1.1.1", Port:27017, SSL:false, Username:'Blogs', Password:'123456', URL:"Mongodb://118.1.1.1:27017/blogs",    //setting the connection string would only give access to that database//To see more databases your need to set Mongodb.admin to TRUE or add databases to the Mongodb.auth listConnectionString:process.env.ME_CONFIG_MONGODB_SERVER?"': Process.env.ME_CONFIG_MONGODB_URL,};} ...
