MongoDB Connect

Start mongod on port 27017 with data as the dbpath

HINTS

You may have to create the data directory.

mkdir data

To start mongo on port 27017, run mongod --port 27017 --dbpath=./data.

Then, in another terminal, run npm install mongodb.

Then, run learnyoumongo verify.

If this lesson is passed, be sure to leave mongod running as it will be used for the remainder of the exercise.

My Solution

rafase282:~/workspace $ mkdir data
rafase282:~/workspace $ mongod --port 27017 --dbpath=./data --nojournal

Then open another terminal window and install mongodb using npm.
