mongodb - When using MongoStat, how do you correctly format the connection string?

Question

I am trying to use MongoStat to monitor my database deployment. Below is the command I'm using to try and connect:

mongostat --uri "mongodb+srv://user:[email protected]/admin?replicaSet=project-shard-0&connectTimeoutMS=10000&authSource=admin&authMechanism=SCRAM-SHA-1"

This produces the error:

error configuring the connector: error parsing options from URI: error parsing uri: URI with srv must not include a port number 

The connection string format that I'm using does actually work when used with MongoRestore. But with MongoStat, I get this error. Does anyone here know how I can properly format this connection string?

Answer 1

man mongostat shows this:

--uri=<connectionString>
              New in version 3.4.6.

              Specify a resolvable URI connection string (enclose in quotes) to connect to the MongoDB deployment.

                 --uri="mongodb://[username:password@]host1[:port1][,host2[:port2],...[,hostN[:portN]]][/[database][?options]]"

Stands to reason that if you try this command instead, it should work:

mongostat --uri="mongodb+srv://user:[email protected]/admin?replicaSet=project-shard-0&connectTimeoutMS=10000&authSource=admin&authMechanism=SCRAM-SHA-1"
