Question

I want to use docker run a vm mongodb, at the same time, the mongo configure file use my own defined configure file to archive replication and open authentication.

Scanning some files but don't resolve the problem.

Answer 1

The docker mongo image has a docker-entrypoint.sh it calls in the Dockerfile

Check if you can:

• create your own image which would create the right user and restart mongo with authentication on: see "umputun/mongo-auth" and its init.sh script

• or mount a createUser.js script in docker-entrypoint-initdb.d.
