DownloadThe easiest (and recommended) way to install MongoDB is to use the pre-built binaries. Note: 64-bit is recommended, although you must have a 64-bit version of Windows to run that version. 最好装在64位上，在32位模式运行时支持的最大文件尺寸为2GB 32-bit binariesDownload and extract the 32-bit .zip. The "Production" build is recommended. 64-bit binariesDownload and extract the 64-bit .zip. UnzipUnzip the downloaded binary package to the location of your choice. You may want to rename mongo-xxxxxxx to just "mongo" for convenience. Create a data directoryBy default MongoDB will store data in \data\db, but it won't automatically create that folder, so we do so here: C:\> mkdir \data
C:\> mkdir \data\db
Or you can do this from the Windows Explorer, of course. If you prefer to place datafiles elsewhere, use the --dbpath command line parameter when starting mongod.exe. Run and connect to the serverThe important binaries for a first run are:
To run the database, click mongod.exe in Explorer, or run it from a CMD window. C:\> cd \my_mongo_dir\bin
C:\my_mongo_dir\bin> mongod
Note: It is also possible to run the server as a Windows Service. But we can do that later. Now, start the administrative shell, either by double-clicking mongo.exe in Explorer, or from the CMD prompt. By default mongo.exe connects to a mongod server running on localhost and uses the database named test. Run mongo --help to see other options. C:\> cd \my_mongo_dir\bin C:\my_mongo_dir\bin> mongo > // the mongo shell is a javascript shell connected to the db > // by default it connects to database 'test' at localhost > 3+3 6 > db test > // the first write will create the db: > db.foo.insert( { a : 1 } ) > db.foo.find() { _id : ..., a : 1 } > show dbs ... > show collections ... > help Congratulations, you've just saved and retrieved your first document with MongoDB! Writing AppsYou can write apps that use MongoDB in virtual any programming language. See the Drivers page for a full list, and also the C# page if writing .NET applications. |
