Using sling conns

Here are examples of setting a connection named MONGODB. We must provide the type=mongodb property:

$ sling conns set MONGODB type=mongodb host=<host> user=<user> password=<password> port=<port> 

Environment Variable

# see https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/reference/connection-string-options/#std-label-connections-connection-options for URL options
export MONGODB='mongodb://root:[e-mail]:27017?authSource=<database>'
export MONGODB='{ type: mongodb, user: "root", password: "password", host: "host.ip", port: 27017, authSource: "<database>" }'
