This setup allows us to have mongodb and a nice web UI mongo-express running. For additional security, we have set password for our db, and we have also set a web login BASICAUTH for our mongo-express service. (localhost:8081). Spin this up with docker-compose up --build

docker-compose.yml

mongodb:
        image: mongo:4.2.5-bionic
        container_name:  mongodb
