Quick databases using Docker containers

Just run a docker container and play with the data!

MongoDB

Configuration - MongoDB

You need to modify MongoDB/run.sh, pointing it to your local storage - e.g. Mac OSX local machine /Users/mongodb

docker run -p 27017:27017 -d -v /Users/mongodb:/data/db mongo

If you are on MacOS, this config is ready to go!

Running Docker

mkdir /Users/mongodb

git clone https://github.com/AlberErre/docker-quick-databases.git
cd docker-quick-databases/MongoDB
bash run.sh

Note: use sudo if needed.

If everything was ok, you should have a docker container running in the background. To ensure it's running just use:

docker ps

Check if MongoDB is running correctly on its port

netstat ao | grep 27017

Interacting with your database

You can use Robo 3T to interact with your database, run queries, etc.

Kill your MongoDB docker container

docker kill DOCKER_UUID

---

MariaDB

Configuration - MariaDB

You need to modify MariaDB/run.sh, pointing it to your local storage - e.g. Mac OSX local machine /Users/mariadb

docker run -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=1234 -d -p 3333:3306 -v /Users/mariadb:/var/lib/mysql mariadb

If you are on MacOS, this config is ready to go!

Running Docker

mkdir /Users/mariadb

git clone https://github.com/AlberErre/docker-quick-databases.git
cd docker-quick-databases/MariaDB
bash run.sh

Note: use sudo if needed.

If everything was ok, you should have a docker container running in the background. To ensure it's running just use:

docker ps

Interacting with your database
