Use mongo

[KeeyanGhoreshi]

Describe your changes

The server will now default to using mongo. If you launch using docker you will have to change the mongo hostname in the config to use the url of the deployed database. You can also test with a local database by starting mongo on your machine and changing the hostname to match the url of the database (likely localhost: 27017).

To launch the database with docker, use:

docker run --name rems_local_pims_remsadmin_mongo --expose 27017 -p 27017:27017 -e MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_USERNAME='username' -e MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_PASSWORD='password' -v rems_local_pims_remsadmin_mongo:/data/db -v "$(pwd)"/mongo-init.js:/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/mongo-init.js mongo

Then put your chosen username and password in the env file like so:

{
  "MONGO_HOSTNAME": {
    "type": "string",
    "default":"username:password@localhost:27017",
    "required": true
  }

note that if you have already launched through docker, a user will already be created and you will either have to delete the database to create a new one with a new user, or just use the user that was originally made.

After setting up the database, you can use the app and it should update the database with the data on launch. You can use a tool like mongo Compass to see the data being populated.
