Managing MongoDB installations

mongoctl allows you to manage multiple versions of MongoDB. You can install (and uninstall) different versions using the mongoctl install-mongodb and mongoctl uninstall-mongodb commands respecively. At any time you can see what versions of MongoDB are currently installed using mongoctl list-versions.

Configuring the location of MongoDB installations

You can configure the directory where mongoctl manages MongoDB instalations in mongoctl.config (see Configuring mongoctl). The default location is ~/mongodb.

Example

% mongoctl list-versions                   

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
VERSION              LOCATION
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.0.4                /Users/abdul/mongodb/mongodb-osx-x86_64-2.0.4
