execute mongo commands via shell script

Question

I am trying to connect to my mongo data base and perform some commands on it such as:

#!/bin/bash

mongo myMongoDbip:27017/admin -u username -p pwd

mongo --shell --eval  "use neura_staging"

i can connect to the data base but all my other commands are not working such as using specific db.

can you elaborate some info about it?

thanks!

I am connecting to the database but I notice that the command was not executed... I mean for using the other data base. — ErezN

You should have something like this

#!/bin/bash

USER=username
PW=secret
AUTHDB=admin
LOGINDATA="-u $USER -p $PW --authenticationDatabase $AUTHDB"
HOST=hostname.example.com

mongo $HOST:27017 $LOGINDATA --shell --eval ’use neura_staging’

The reason why your second call to mongo does not work as expected is the this call opens a new (and since you did not provide any login data unauthenticated) connection.
