You can write scripts for the mongo shell in JavaScript that manipulate data in MongoDB or perform administrative operation. For more information about the mongo shell see mongo 壳, and see the Running .js files via a mongo shell Instance on the Server section for more information about using these mongo script.
This tutorial provides an introduction to writing JavaScript that uses the mongo shell to access MongoDB.
From the mongo shell or from a JavaScript file, you can instantiate database connections using the Mongo() constructor:
new Mongo()
new Mongo(<host>)
new Mongo(<host:port>)
Consider the following example that instantiates a new connection to the MongoDB instance running on localhost on the default port and sets the global db variable to myDatabase using the getDB() method:
conn = new Mongo();
db = conn.getDB("myDatabase");
Additionally, you can use the connect() method to connect to the MongoDB instance. The following example connects to the MongoDB instance that is running on localhost with the non-default port 27020 and set the global db variable:
db = connect("localhost:27020/myDatabase");
If you create new connections inside a JavaScript file:
From the command line, use mongo to evaluate JavaScript.
Use the --eval option to mongo to pass the shell a JavaScript fragment, as in the following:
mongo test --eval "printjson(db.getCollectionNames())"
This returns the output of db.getCollectionNames() using the mongo shell connected to the mongod or mongos instance running on port 27017 on the localhost interface.
You can specify a .js file to the mongo shell, and mongo will evaluate the javascript directly. consider the following example:
mongo localhost:27017/test myjsfile.js
This operation evaluates the myjsfile.js script in a mongo shell that connects to the test database on the mongod instance accessible via the localhost interface on port 27017.
Alternately, you can specify the mongodb connection parameters inside of the javascript file using the Mongo() constructor. See Opening New Connections for more information.
