mongo-express is a web-based MongoDB admin interface written in Node.js, Express.js, and Bootstrap3.
This image can be built and used in operating systems built for ARMv7 architecture, e.g. Raspberry Pi with Raspbian. Tested with Raspberry Pi 4 Model B 4 GB, Raspbian Buster and Docker 19.03.1.
$ docker run --link some_mongo_container:mongo -p 8081:8081 mongo-expressThen you can hit http://localhost:8081 or http://host-ip:8081 in your browser.
JSON documents are parsed through a javascript virtual machine, so the web interface can be used to execute malicious javascript on a server.
mongo-express should only be used privately for development purposes.
Environment vairables are passed to the run command for configuring a mongo-express container.
