I want to import dump data from my .gz file.
Location of file is home/Alex/Documents/Abc/dump.gz and the name of db is "Alex".
I have tried mongorestore --gzip --db "Alex" /home/Alex/Documents/Abc/dump.gz
But it shows error:
2018-10-31T12:54:58.359+0530 the --db and --collection args should only be used when restoring from a BSON file. Other uses are deprecated and will not exist in the future; use --nsInclude instead 2018-10-31T12:54:58.359+0530 Failed: file /home/Alex/Documents/Abc/dump.gz does not have .bson extension. How can I import it?

You should just be able to do mongorestore --gzip <path to gzip folder). Side note you can use mongodump with --gzip option and it will compress it for you.
To import JSON file you need to follow the following steps: Step 1: Open a command prompt and give command mongod to connect with MongoDB server and don't close this cmd to stay connected to the server. Step 2: Open another command prompt and run the mongo shell. Using the mongo command.
Dump command:
mongodump --host localhost:27017 --gzip --db Alex --out ./testSO Restore Command:
mongorestore --host localhost:27017 --gzip --db Alex ./testSO/Alex Works perfectly!
Dump command:
mongodump --host localhost:27017 --archive=dump.gz --gzip --db Alex Restore Command:
mongorestore --host localhost:27017 --gzip --archive=dump.gz --db Alex Note:- While using archive you need to stick with the
database name.
Different database name or collection name is not supported. For more info.
