I have seen answers on C# and Java but not able to find anything on NodeJs. I have tried using cmd shell in Windows to get the required output but no luck.
I am aware that the same information can be taken in Mongo shell but the requirement is to get a list within the NodeJs app.
cmd = child_process.exec('"C:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\3.2\bin\mongo.exe" admin ; db.getMongo().getDBNames()');and also
var mongoServer = require('mongodb-core').Server;
var server = new mongoServer({
host: 'localhost'
, port: 27017
, reconnect: true
, reconnectInterval: 50 });
server.on('connect', function (_server) {
console.log('connected');
var cmdres = _server.command('db.adminCommand({listDatabases: 1})');
console.log("Result: " + cmdres);
}
You can use mongodb driver to get dbs as following
var MongoClient = require('mongodb').MongoClient;
// Connection url
var url = 'mongodb://localhost:27017/test';
// Connect using MongoClient
MongoClient.connect(url, function(err, db) {
// Use the admin database for the operation
var adminDb = db.admin();
// List all the available databases
adminDb.listDatabases(function(err, result) {
console.log(result.databases);
db.close();
});
});
