db = db.getSiblingDB('sample_db');

db.createCollection('sample_collection');

db.sample_collection.insertMany([
 {
    org: 'helpdev',
    filter: 'EVENT_A',
    addrs: 'http://rest_client_1:8080/wh'
  },

    org: 'helpdev',
    filter: 'EVENT_B',

Where do you put the mongo-init.js file if you're using the Windows Mongo container?

@petryuno1 into the folder docker-entrypoint-initdb.d. Like showed in line #14

Structure:

 -- my-folder/
 -- -- docker-compose.yml
 -- -- docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/
 -- -- -- -- mongo-init.js

That only works in a Linux container. I am using the mongo:6.0.7-nanoserver image, which has a Windows filesystem (so no /docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/).

can we create tow or more test databases?
