mongoimport: Import a JSON array, using each element as a separate document.
$ mongoimport --jsonArray --file=${filename-json}
try on your machine
The command "mongoimport --jsonArray --file=${filename-json}" is used to import JSON data into a MongoDB database.
Here's an explanation of each part of the command:
- "mongoimport" is a command-line tool that comes with MongoDB. It is used to import data into a MongoDB database.
- "--jsonArray" is an option that specifies that the input file contains a JSON array. Each document in the file should be a separate JSON object within the array. Without this option, mongoimport expects a single JSON document per line in the input file.
- "--file=${filename-json}" is an option that specifies the path to the JSON file you want to import. The "${filename-json}" is a placeholder for the actual filename you should provide.
To use this command, you need to replace "${filename-json}" with the path and name of your JSON file. For example, if your file is called "data.json" and it is located in the current directory, you would write:
mongoimport --jsonArray --file=data.json
This command will import the contents of the "data.json" file into the MongoDB database. Each JSON object within the array will be treated as a separate document in the specified collection.
