MONGOIMPORT(1) Mongo Database MONGOIMPORT(1) NAME
mongoimport - the Mongo import tool SYNOPSIS
mongoimport [OPTIONS] DESCRIPTION
mongoimport is a tool to import a MongoDB collection from JSON, CSV, or TSV. The query can be filtered or a list of fields to input can be given. OPTIONS --help show usage information -h, --host HOST server to connect to (default HOST=localhost) -d, --db DATABASE database to use -c, --c COLLECTION collection to use (some commands) --dbpath PATH directly access mongod data files in this path, instead of connecting to a mongod instance -v, --verbose be more verbose (include multiple times for more verbosity e.g. -vvvvv) -f, --fields NAMES comma separated list of field names e.g. -f name,age --fieldFile FILE file with fields names - 1 per line --jsonArray load a json array, not one item per line. Currently limited to 4MB. --ignoreBlanks if given, empty fields in csv and tsv will be ignored --type TYPE type of file to import. default: json (json,csv,tsv) --file FILE file to import from; if not specified stdin is used --drop drop collection first --headerline CSV,TSV only - use first line as headers COPYRIGHT

MongoDB - Mongo Driver for Perl SYNOPSIS
use MongoDB; my $connection = MongoDB::Connection->new(host => 'localhost', port => 27017); my $database = $connection->foo; my $collection = $database->bar; my $id = $collection->insert({ some => 'data' }); my $data = $collection->find_one({ _id => $id }); INTRO TO MONGODB
This is the Perl driver for MongoDB, a document-oriented database. This section introduces some of the basic concepts of MongoDB. There's also a Tutorial pod that introduces using the driver. For more documentation on MongoDB in general, check out <http://www.mongodb.org>. GETTING HELP
If you have any questions, comments, or complaints, you can get through to the developers most dependably via the MongoDB user list: mongodb-user@googlegroups.com. You might be able to get someone quicker through the MongoDB IRC channel, irc.freenode.net#mongodb. AUTHORS

MongoDB is a database access module. MongoDB (the database) store all strings as UTF-8. Non-UTF-8 strings will be forcibly converted to UTF-8. To convert something from another encoding to UTF-8, you can use Encode: use Encode; my $name = decode('cp932', "x90xbcx96xecx81x40x91xbex98x59"); my $id = $coll->insert( { name => $name, } ); my $object = $coll->find_one( { name => $name } ); Thanks to taronishino for this example. Notation and Conventions The following conventions are used in this document: $conn Database connection $db Database $coll Collection undef NULL values are represented by undefined values in Perl @arr Reference to an array passed to methods \%attr Reference to a hash of attribute values passed to methods Note that Perl will automatically close and clean up database connections if all references to them are deleted. Outline Usage To use MongoDB, first you need to load the MongoDB module: use MongoDB; use strict; use warnings; (The "use strict;" and "use warnings;" isn't required, but it's strongly recommended.) Then you need to connect to a Mongo database server. By default, Mongo listens for connections on port 27017. Unless otherwise noted, this documentation assumes you are running MongoDB locally on the default port. Mongo can be started in authentication mode, which requires clients to log in before manipulating data. By default, Mongo does not start in this mode, so no username or password is required to make a fully functional connection. If you would like to learn more about authentication, see the "authenticate" method. To connect to the database, create a new MongoDB Connection object: $conn = MongoDB::Connection->new("host" => "localhost:27017"); As this is the default, we can use the equivalent shorthand: $conn = MongoDB::Connection->new; Connecting is relatively expensive, so try not to open superfluous connections. There is no way to explicitly disconnect from the database. When $conn goes out of scope, the connection will automatically be closed and cleaned up. INTERNALS Class Hierarchy The classes are arranged in a hierarchy: you cannot create a MongoDB::Collection instance before you create MongoDB::Database instance, for example. The full hierarchy is: MongoDB::Connection -> MongoDB::Database -> MongoDB::Collection This is because MongoDB::Database has a field that is a MongoDB::Connection and MongoDB::Collection has a MongoDB::Database field. When you call a MongoDB::Collection function, it "trickles up" the chain of classes. For example, say we're inserting $doc into the collection "bar" in the database "foo". The calls made look like: "$collection->insert($doc)" Calls MongoDB::Database's implementation of "insert", passing along the collection name ("foo"). "$db->insert($name, $doc)" Calls MongoDB::Connection's implementation of "insert", passing along the fully qualified namespace ("foo.bar"). "$connection->insert($ns, $doc)" MongoDB::Connection does the actual work and sends a message to the database. FUNCTIONS
These functions should generally not be used. They are very low level and have nice wrappers in MongoDB::Collection. write_insert($ns, @objs) my ($insert, $ids) = MongoDB::write_insert("foo.bar", [{foo => 1}, {bar => -1}, {baz => 1}]); Creates an insert string to be used by "MongoDB::Connection::send". The second argument is an array of hashes to insert. To imitate the behavior of "MongoDB::Collection::insert", pass a single hash, for example: my ($insert, $ids) = MongoDB::write_insert("foo.bar", [{foo => 1}]); Passing multiple hashes imitates the behavior of "MongoDB::Collection::batch_insert". This function returns the string and an array of the the _id fields that the inserted hashes will contain. write_query($ns, $flags, $skip, $limit, $query, $fields?) my ($query, $info) = MongoDB::write_query('foo.$cmd', 0, 0, -1, {getlasterror => 1}); Creates a database query to be used by "MongoDB::Connection::send". $flags are query flags to use (see "MongoDB::Cursor::Flags" for possible values). $skip is the number of results to skip, $limit is the number of results to return, $query is the query hash, and $fields is the optional fields to return. This returns the query string and a hash of information about the query that is used by "MongoDB::Connection::recv" to get the database response to the query. write_update($ns, $criteria, $obj, $flags) my ($update) = MongoDB::write_update("foo.bar", {age => {'$lt' => 20}}, {'$set' => {young => true}}, 0); Creates an update that can be used with "MongoDB::Connection::send". $flags can be 1 for upsert and/or 2 for updating multiple documents. write_remove($ns, $criteria, $flags) my ($remove) = MongoDB::write_remove("foo.bar", {name => "joe"}, 0); Creates a remove that can be used with "MongoDB::Connection::send". $flags can be 1 for removing just one matching document. read_documents($buffer) my @documents = MongoDB::read_documents($buffer); Decodes BSON documents from the given buffer SEE ALSO
