Creating MongoDB Service on Windows

There are different ways you can install MongoDB as Windows Service..

Using mongod

mongod --config "M:\mongodb\conf\mongod.cfg" --serviceName "MongoDB" --serviceDisplayName "MongoDB" --serviceDescription "MongoDB Server Instance" --install

mongod --logpath M:\mongodb\data\log\mongo.log --dbpath M:\mongodb\data\db --auth --directoryperdb --install

 Specifying argument directoryperdb creates separate directory structure for different DBs like admin, mydb etc.

Using Windows Service command

sc.exe create MongoDB binPath= "\"M:\mongodb\bin\mongod.exe\" --service --config=\"M:\mongodb\mongod.cfg\"" DisplayName= "MongoDB" start= "auto"

Following the Windows service command, make sure Service console is not opened.

Start/Stop MongoDB Service

net start MongoDB
net stop MongoDB

Deleting MongoDB Service

mongod --remove
sc.exe delete MongoDB

MongoDB Backup and Restore

It's a general need in MongoDB development, to take backups or restore DB with an old backup. DB backup can be done at both DB level and individual Collection level. Let's see how we can perform different backup/restore operations.. DB Backup Complete DB Assuming database to backup is "mydb", the best thing is to back it as gzip to save some space on your Server. mongodump -- archive = mydb . 2017 - 09 - 21.gz -- gzip -- db mydb This will create the archive in the directory where you're executing the command. Another way is to take backup as bson documents. mongodump -h localhost -p 27017 -d mydb -o C:\mongobackup\20170921 A directory with db name will be created under  C:\mongobackup\20170921 In case you have multiple instances running on same server, you can use --host and --port options. Individual Collection mongodump -- collection myCollection -- db mydb This will create backup with same name as that of collection (myCollection in this...

MongoDB BulkWrite Java API

Since version 3.2, MongoDB has introduced Bulk Update methods. In context of RDBMS, it's like SQL Batch Jobs, where SQL Statements are prepared in different chunks and a batch of statements are submitted to DB for update/insert. Here are some important points about MongoDB Bulk Write operation.. Useful in case you've huge data to update/insert. Mongo automatically prepares batches (of 1000 default) and start execution in an ordered/unordered manner. This drastically reduce DB trip time. Let's say there are 50 thousand records to update, now instead of 50k round trips to DB from your app server, using Bulk Update it would be reduced to just 50 round trips. Let's see an example below: List<WriteModel<Document>> updateDocuments = new ArrayList<WriteModel<Document>>(); for ( Long entityId : entityIDs ) { //Finder doc Document filterDocument = new Document (); filterDocument . append ( "_id" , ent...

MongoDB Aggregation using Java API

A very common problem scenario in programming is to get the records or record count by certain fields. For developers familiar with RDBMS, it's like creating a SQL with combination of count function and group by attributes. For MongoDB too, it's very similar. Let's look at the example below fetching no of employees group by department Ids. public Map < Long , Integer > getEmployeeCountMapByDeptId () { Map < Long , Integer > empCountMap = new HashMap <>(); AggregateIterable < Document > iterable = getMongoCollection (). aggregate ( Arrays . asList ( new Document ( "$match" , new Document ( "active" , Boolean . TRUE ) . append ( "region" , "India" )), new Document ( "$group" , new Document ( "_id" , "$" + "deptId" ). append ( "count...
