Starting a single node instance using command-line options

In this recipe, we will see how to start a standalone single node server with some command-line options. We will see an example where we want to do the following:

  • Start the server listening to port 27000
  • Logs should be written to /logs/mongo.log
  • The database directory is /data/mongo/db

As the server has been started for development purposes, we don't want to preallocate full-size database files. (We will soon see what this means.)

Getting ready

If you have already seen and executed the Installing single node MongoDB recipe, you need not do anything different. If all these prerequisites are met, we are good for this recipe.

How to do it…

  1. The /data/mongo/db directory for the database and /logs/ for the logs should be created and present on your filesystem with appropriate permissions to write to it.
  2. Execute the following command:
    > mongod --port 27000 --dbpath /data/mongo/db –logpath /logs/mongo.log --smallfiles
    

How it works…

Ok, this wasn't too difficult and is similar to the previous recipe, but we have some additional command-line options this time around. MongoDB actually supports quite a few options at startup, and we will see a list of the most common and important ones in my opinion:

There's more…

For an exhaustive list of options that are available, use the --help or -h option. This list of options is not exhaustive, and we will see some more coming up in later recipes as and when we need them. In the next recipe, we will see how to use a configuration file instead of the command-line arguments.
