Everything connects properly in my app, but when I try to do so by command line I can't seem to connect.

Ensure that your MongoDB instance is running: Compass must connect to a running MongoDB instance. Also check you have installed MongoDB and have a running mongod process. You should also check that the port where MongoDB is running matches the port you provide in the compass connect.
To open up the MongoDB shell, run the mongo command from your server prompt. By default, the mongo command opens a shell connected to a locally-installed MongoDB instance running on port 27017 . Try running the mongo command with no additional parameters: mongo.
To connect to your local MongoDB, you set Hostname to localhost and Port to 27017 . These values are the default for all local MongoDB connections (unless you changed them). Press connect, and you should see the databases in your local MongoDB.
Do you just need to replace seeds_db with db? eg.
db.stat_definitions.find();
