Basically it spins up a VM (Virtual Machine) on your host machine (OSX or Windows) with Docker Installed. Docker ToolBoxĭocker Toolbox is a handy sandbox environment that the creators of Docker have made to help you get started with Docker easily. Lets dive into getting your MongoDB instance running with Docker Toolbox.
#DOCKER MONGODB INSTALL#
Also, as your code scales Docker will empower you to install more MongoDB instances on multiple servers to handle load quite simply. Docker gives you the benefit of knowing that your code base will operate on any OS that supports Docker, which is quite extensive at this point. Getting an instance of MongoDB up and running with Docker Toolbox is both easy and provides some nice benefits.

Continue reading to see how to do this via Docker command line tools. Update: Since this tutorial was published, Docker introduced Kitematic, part of the Docker Toolbox to help with setting up Local Databases. You can then return to the MongoDB console with the previous commands whenever it’s time to work with the database again.įor more tutorials from Jack Wallen, subscribe to TechRepublic’s YouTube channel How To Make Tech Work - and remember to like this video.This tutorial will show you how to get a MongoDB image instance up and running with Docker Toolbox. You can exit the console with the exit command, and then exit the container also with the exit command. You should find yourself on the MongoDB console, where you can start developing your databases. The command to access your running MongoDB container would beĪccess the mongoDB console with the command With a container running, you will then need to know how to access it. Now that our volume is ready, we can deploy it with the commandĭocker run -d -v mongodata:/data/db -name mymongo -net=host mongo:latest -bind_ip 127.0.0.1 -port 27000 Pull the latest Docker image from MongoDB with the commandīefore we run the deployment command, we need to create a volume for the database so we can retain data should something go awry with the container.
Log out and log back in so the changes take effect. To finish things up, make sure your user is a member of the docker group with the command: Sudo apt-get install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io -y Sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl gnupg lsb-release -y Next, add the official Docker repository:Įcho "deb $(lsb_release -cs) stable" | sudo tee /etc/apt//docker.list > /dev/null The first thing to do is add the official Docker GPG key with:Ĭurl -fsSL | sudo gpg -dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/docker-archive-keyring.gpg In case you don’t already have Docker installed, here is the step to do so on Ubuntu Server. I’m going to demonstrate on Ubuntu Server 22.04. The only things you’ll need for this deployment are a machine that supports Docker and a user with sudo permission. What you’ll need to deploy MongoDB as a container That’s a win-win, so if you need to get a MongoDB instance up and running for development purposes, read on. On top of that, it’s considerably easier and you can spin it up on any machine that supports Docker. After all, deploying with a container is a much more predictable route. What do you do when you don’t have time to install and troubleshoot an installation of MongoDB? You could always go the container route. SEE: Hiring Kit: Database engineer (TechRepublic Premium) That’s an issue I’ve experienced on several occasions. MongoDB might install just fine on, say, Ubuntu 20.04, but there’s no guarantee it will start properly. MongoDB is an outstanding NoSQL database that offers plenty of features to satisfy the most demanding needs, but I’ve found installing MongoDB to be a bit inconsistent across Linux distributions.
