I have several js files with collections creations and seeds. I load data from one of them using, for example,
mongo <host>:<port>/<database> -u <user> -p <password> < db.users.js
However, now I have several files, and I wish I could load all of them to mongo using one command. Hopefully, with mongo shell.
Is there any way I can do it?
There are different ways to load (run) these files. I have two js files script1.js and script2.js, for example.
From OS command line specify all the files:
mongo localhost/testdb script1.js script2.js
Or, create one js file and include all the scripts. For example, create a script_combined.js with the following:
load("script1.js")
load("script2.js")
Run as:
mongo localhost/testdb script_combined.js
Alternative way to run multiple scripts from within mongo shell:
> const script_files = [ "script1.js", "script2.js" ]
> for (let file of script_files) {
load(file)
}
