There was a problem hiding this comment.
For this configuration, "HOST" isn't needed. 'mongodb://localhost:27017/' basically only serves as quasi-documentation to show that you can put a connection string here, but may give some wrong impressions, like the fact that a port is required, so maybe we should rethink this.
