mongodb - Import more than 1 json file using mongoimport

Question

I am new to mongodb and want to know about importing a json file from one server to another. I tried the following command mongoimport -d test -c bik check.json and it works fine for me. Now i want to know when there are multiple json files how do i import all of them at a single go. I could not find any related document where it is written this is not possible. Please help me is this possible and how

Answer 1

I came up with a more elegant way to automatically import ALL collections:

ls -1 *.json | sed 's/.json$//' | while read col; do 
    mongoimport -d db_name -c $col < $col.json; 
done

I hope this is helpful.
