Its document model makes it very intuitive to access and handle with various programming languages. + +![mongodb Ubuntu][2] + +In this article, I’ll cover two ways you can install MongoDB on your Ubuntu system. + +### Installing MongoDB on Ubuntu based Distributions + + 1. Install MongoDB using Ubuntu’s repository. Easy but not the latest version of MongoDB + 2. Install MongoDB using its official repository. Slightly complicated but you get the latest version of MongoDB. + + + +The first installation method is easier, but I recommend the second method if you plan on using the latest release with official support. + +Some people might prefer using snap packages. There are snaps available in the Ubuntu Software Center, but I wouldn’t recommend using them; they’re outdated at the moment and I won’t be covering that. + +#### Method 1. Install MongoDB from Ubuntu Repository + +This is the easy way to install MongoDB on your system, you only need to type in a simple command. + +##### Installing MongoDB + +First, make sure your packages are up-to-date. Open up a terminal and type: + +``` +sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y +``` + +Go ahead and install MongoDB with: + +``` +sudo apt install mongodb +``` + +That’s it! MongoDB is now installed on your machine. + +The MongoDB service should automatically be started on install, but to check the status type + +``` +sudo systemctl status mongodb +``` + +![Check if the MongoDB service is running.][3] + +You can see that the service is **active**. + +##### Running MongoDB + +MongoDB is currently a systemd service, so we’ll use **systemctl** to check and modify it’s state, using the following commands: + +``` +sudo systemctl status mongodb +sudo systemctl stop mongodb +sudo systemctl start mongodb +sudo systemctl restart mongodb +``` + +You can also change if MongoDB automatically starts when the system starts up ( **default** : enabled): + +``` +sudo systemctl disable mongodb +sudo systemctl enable mongodb +``` + +To start working with (creating and editing) databases, type: + +``` +mongo +``` + +This will start up the **mongo shell**. Please check out the [manual][4] for detailed information on the available queries and options. + +**Note:** Depending on how you plan to use MongoDB, you might need to adjust your Firewall. That’s unfortunately more involved than what I can cover here and depends on your configuration. + +##### Uninstall MongoDB + +If you installed MongoDB from the Ubuntu Repository and want to uninstall it (maybe to install using the officially supported way), type: + +``` +sudo systemctl stop mongodb +sudo apt purge mongodb +sudo apt autoremove +``` + +This should completely get rid of your MongoDB install. Make sure to **backup** any collections or documents you might want to keep since they will be wiped out! + +#### Method 2. Install MongoDB Community Edition on Ubuntu + +This is the way the recommended way to install MongoDB, using the package manager. You’ll have to type a few more commands and it might be intimidating if you are newer to the Linux world. + +But there’s nothing to be afraid of! We’ll go through the installation process step by step. + +##### Installing MongoDB + +The package maintained by MongoDB Inc. is called **mongodb-org** , not **mongodb** (this is the name of the package in the Ubuntu Repository). Make sure **mongodb** is not installed on your system before applying this steps. The packages will conflict. Let’s get to it! + +First, we’ll have to import the public key: + +``` +sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv 9DA31620334BD75D9DCB49F368818C72E52529D4 +``` + +Now, you need to add a new repository in your sources list so that you can install MongoDB Community Edition and also get automatic updates: + +``` +echo "deb [ arch=amd64 ] https://repo.mongodb.org/apt/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs)/mongodb-org/4.0 multiverse" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb-org-4.0.list +``` + +To be able to install **mongodb-org** , we’ll have to update our package database so that your system is aware of the new packages available: + +``` +sudo apt update +``` + +Now you can ether install the **latest stable version** of MongoDB: + +``` +sudo apt install -y mongodb-org +``` + +or a **specific version** (change the version number after **equal** sign) + +``` +sudo apt install -y mongodb-org=4.0.6 mongodb-org-server=4.0.6 mongodb-org-shell=4.0.6 mongodb-org-mongos=4.0.6 mongodb-org-tools=4.0.6 +``` + +If you choose to install a specific version, make sure you change the version number everywhere. If you only change it in the **mongodb-org=4.0.6** part, the latest version will be installed. + +By default, when updating using the package manager ( **apt-get** ), MongoDB will be updated to the newest updated version. To stop that from happening (and freezing to the installed version), use: + +``` +echo "mongodb-org hold" | sudo dpkg --set-selections +echo "mongodb-org-server hold" | sudo dpkg --set-selections +echo "mongodb-org-shell hold" | sudo dpkg --set-selections +echo "mongodb-org-mongos hold" | sudo dpkg --set-selections +echo "mongodb-org-tools hold" | sudo dpkg --set-selections +``` + +You have now successfully installed MongoDB! + +##### Configuring MongoDB + +By default, the package manager will create **/var/lib/mongodb** and **/var/log/mongodb** and MongoDB will run using the **mongodb** user account. + +I won’t go into changing these default settings since that is beyond the scope of this guide. You can check out the [manual][5] for detailed information. + +The settings in **/etc/mongod.conf** are applied when starting/restarting the **mongodb** service instance. + +##### Running MongoDB + +To start the mongodb daemon **mongod** , type: + +``` +sudo service mongod start +``` + +Now you should verify that the **mongod** process started successfully. This information is stored (by default) at **/var/log/mongodb/mongod.log**. Let’s check the contents of that file: + +``` +sudo cat /var/log/mongodb/mongod.log +``` + +![Check MongoDB logs to see if the process is running properly.][6] + +As long as you get this: **[initandlisten] waiting for connections on port 27017** somewhere in there, the process is running properly. + +**Note: 27017** is the default port of **mongod.** + +To stop/restart **mongod** enter: + +``` +sudo service mongod stop +sudo service mongod restart +``` + +Now, you can use MongoDB by opening the **mongo shell** : + +``` +mongo +``` + +##### Uninstall MongoDB + +Run the following commands + +``` +sudo service mongod stop +sudo apt purge mongodb-org* +``` + +To remove the **databases** and **log files** (make sure to **backup** what you want to keep!): + +``` +sudo rm -r /var/log/mongodb +sudo rm -r /var/lib/mongodb +``` + +**Wrapping Up** + +MongoDB is a great NoSQL database, easy to integrate into modern projects.
