Using mongodb with username/password

[biren]

Info:

• Docker version ($ docker --version): Docker version 17.12.1-ce, build 7390fc6
• Laradock commit ($ git rev-parse HEAD): c5c4d19

• System info disto/version: Ubuntu 16.04

Issue:

There doesn't seem to be a way to run mongo container with authentication. Initial user creation functionality is missing (unlike postgres).

---

Expected behavior:

Mongo container to take care of user creation at the time of install. May be using a script approach like: http://blog.bejanalex.com/2017/03/running-mongodb-in-a-docker-container-with-authentication/

---

Reproduce:

• Follow all the setup/config instructions for jenssegers/mongodb and composer.
  php artisan tinker

$user = DB::connection('mongodb')->collection('users')->get();
MongoDB\Driver\Exception\AuthenticationException with message 'Authentication failed.'

• Verify there is no --auth for mongo command line inside the container

mongodb      1     0  0 00:39 ?        00:00:12 mongod --bind_ip_all

• Connecting to mongodb from an external UI (like Robo 3T) without user/pass works too.

• For running mongodb inside a docker container, may be we can drop an initial user creation script inside docker-entrypoint-initdb.d.

Relevant Code:

• app/config/database.php:

        'mongodb' => [
            'driver' => 'mongodb',
            'host' => env('MONGODB_HOST', '127.0.0.1'),
            'port' => env('MONGODB_PORT', '27017'),
            'database' => env('MONGODBDB_DATABASE', ''),
            'username' => env('MONGODB_USERNAME', ''),
            'password' => env('MONGODB_PASSWORD', ''),
            'options'  => [
                'database' => 'admin',
            ],
        ],
