mongoctl is a lightweight command line utility that simplifies the
installation of MongoDB and management of MongoDB servers and replica set
clusters. It is particularly useful if you maintain many MongoDB environments
with lots of configurations to manage.
The core philosophy behind mongoctl is that all server and cluster
configuration be defined declaratively as data, rather than procedurally as
code or scripts. So, instead of typing shell commands with lots of options that
you can never remember, or writing a bunch of shell scripts hard-coded with
hosts, port numbers, and file-system paths, you simply define the universe of
servers and clusters with JSON objects and pass them to mongoctl commands.
Server and cluster definitions can reside in flat-files, behind a web-server
(like Github for instance), or in a MongoDB database.

- Linux or MacOSX (
mongoctldoes not currently support Windows) - Python 2.6 or 2.7 (3.x not yet supported)
- pip >= 1.0.2 (instructions on installing pip)
- If planning to build MongoDB from source, i.e. with
mongoctl install-mongodb --build-from-source: thesconstool (typically available in your package manager, such asapt,yum/dnforbrew.)
mongoctl supports MongoDB versions >= 1.8.
mongoctl is registered in the Python package
index (PyPI).
Note: you may need to prefix these commands with sudo if you're using a
system-level Python install (i.e. if running pip by itself results in
permissions errors.) For example, sudo pip install mongoctl will install
mongoctl to your system Python.
To install:
% pip install mongoctl
To update:
% pip install --upgrade mongoctl
To uninstall:
% pip uninstall mongoctl
To run mongoctl's test suite, execute the following command:
% python -m mongoctl.tests.test_suite
Note: executing the test suite will download and install a temporary copy of
MongoDB (cached in a subfolder of mongoctl/tests) for use while testing.
