thanks

Glad it helped!

This really worked like charm.

Edit:
command: --quiet
Added it to shut up the too verbose docker compose log.

Edit:
docker compose version 2 doesn't create the bind mounted dir automatically, so you will need to create the directory manually before running it:

mkdir db_data

Or just do not use bind mount if you don't have a reason for it.

Hi, thank you for the YAML. May I know how to add timezone in MongoDB docker-compose ?

I think this link might help, I haven't tried it.

Thanks, I got the timezone worked with :

...
environment: 
      MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_USERNAME: your_username
      MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_PASSWORD: your_strong_password
      TZ: "Europe/London"
...

List of timezone : Setting Local Time in Docker

Great!

You can run mongo5+ only on a server of which CPU supports AVX.

Thank you

Glad it helped :)
