docker + mongo + mongoid

docker + mongo + mongoid.md

The gist aims to show settings needed to run mongo in a docker container. Along with essential files come files needed to reproduce the case.

Table of contents

• mongo-3.x + mongoid-5.x
• mongo-3.x + mongoid-5.x (no auth)
• mongo-2.x + mongoid-4.x (no auth)

mongo-3.x + mongoid-5.x

Authentication is enabled if both MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_USERNAME and MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_PASSWORD are specified. The app user is created in the destination database, so no need to specify auth_source (authentication database).

mongo-2.x + mongoid-4.x (no auth)

mongoid-4.x doesn't work with mongo-3.x (can't authenticate). mongo-2.x image doesn't have means to enable authentication:
