Requirements

• NodeJS 16+

Initialising the Database

1. Create a new MongoDB User with read and write permissions for all databases

3. Connect to your MongoDB Database by using the mongo shell (mongosh) and setting the following environment variables:

   • MONGO_USER: The username of the MongoDB User
   • MONGO_PASSWORD: The password of the MongoDB User
   • MONGO_HOST: The host of the MongoDB Database
   • MONGO_PORT: The port of the MongoDB Database

   Your command should look something like this:

   MONGO_USER="username" MONGO_PASSWORD="password" MONGO_HOST="0.0.0.0" MONGO_PORT="27017" mongosh -u "username" -p "password" ...

4. Now that you are connected to your MongoDB Database, run the following command to initialise the collections:

   load("create-collections.js");

5. You can now exit the mongo shell by typing .exit and pressing enter
