I have a database called ubuntu_development on mongodb. I am working with rails 3 + mongoid

How can I import/restore all models/collections from the folder my_backup to my database ubuntu_development

Thank you very much!

How do I restore a specific database in MongoDB?

The basic way to restore a database is to use the mongorestore command to specify the backup directory (dump directory) without any options. This option is suitable for databases located in the localhost (127.0. 0.1) using the port 27017.

Run the MongoDB system command ps -ef | grep mongod to find the temporary recovery MongoDB instance location. Run the MongoDB mongodump command to create a dump file of any specific database or collection. Run the mongorestore command to restore the dump file into any MongoDB instance.

To import .bson files

mongorestore -d db_name -c collection_name path/file.bson

Incase only for a single collection.Try this:

mongorestore --drop -d db_name -c collection_name path/file.bson

To import .json files

mongoimport --db db_name --collection collection_name --file name.json
