tutorial on installing MongoDB database on Mac

1. Download the compressed package and unzip it to any local directory. (Mine is Documents/develop/mongodb)

2. Create a new Data folder under MongoDB and create a new DB folder under Data. (Bin and Data folder at level one)

3. Enter the bin folder and set the address variable where the database data is stored

CD Documents/develop/mongodb/bin

　　

./mongod--dbpath/users/wangming/documents/develop/mongodb/data/db

The following prompt appears
