How to install MongoDB on Linux Debian 9?

The MongoDB is a document database with the scalability and flexibility that you want with the querying and indexing that you need. It stores data in flexible, JSON-like documents, meaning fields can vary from document to document and data structure can be changed over time. The document model maps to the objects in your application code, making data easy to work with. Ad hoc queries, indexing, and real time aggregation provide powerful ways to access and analyze your data. MongoDB is a distributed database at its core, so high availability, horizontal scaling, and geographic distribution are built in and easy to use by www.mongodb.com.

In this blog, we will install the MongoDB on Linux Debian 9. The step by step procedure has been given below to install MongoDB.

First, update all the existing packages by using below command.

sudo apt update

Then, install the MongoDB package by using apt install command.

How to install Docker on Linux Debian 9?

Docker is a tool designed to make it easier to create, deploy, and run applications by using containers. Containers allow a developer to package up an application with all of the parts it needs, such as libraries and other dependencies, and ship it all out as one package. By doing so, thanks to the container, the developer can rest assured that the application will run on any other Linux machine regardless of any customized settings that machine might have that could differ from the machine used for writing and testing the code. – by opensource.com

steps

First, update all existing packages list.

sudo apt update

Install prerequisites packages which supports “apt” use packages over HTTPS.

sudo apt install apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl software-properties-common

Add the GPG Key from the official Docker repository site to your system.

curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/debian/gpg | sudo apt-key add -

Add the Docker repository to APT sources.

sudo add-apt-repository "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/debian stretch stable"

Update the packages once again with the Docker packages.

sudo apt update

Execute the below command to make sure installing the docker from official docker repository instead of default one from your Linux Debian.

apt-cache policy docker-ce

You will get the below message in your console about the Docker.

docker-ce:
   Installed: (none)
   Candidate: 5:19.03.0~3-0~debian-stretch
   Version table:
      5:19.03.0~3-0~debian-stretch 500
         500 https://download.docker.com/linux/debian stretch/stable amd64 Packages
      5:18.09.8~3-0~debian-stretch 500
         500 https://download.docker.com/linux/debian stretch/stable amd64 Packages

Now this is the time to install the Docker. Execute the below command to install Docker in your Linux Debian 9.

sudo apt install docker-ce

After docker installation, check the daemon started and the docker process is enabled to start on boot.

sudo systemctl status docker

You will get the below message on the console and showing that service is started and running.

Now execute the below commands to run Hello World in docker by login as root user. Otherwise, add the “sudo” before the docker commands.

docker run hello-world

You will get the following output on the console.

Unable to find image 'hello-world:latest' locally

 Status: Downloaded newer image for hello-world:latest
 Hello from Docker!
 This message shows that your installation appears to be working correctly.
 To generate this message, Docker took the following steps:
 The Docker client contacted the Docker daemon.
 The Docker daemon pulled the "hello-world" image from the Docker Hub.
 (amd64)
 The Docker daemon created a new container from that image which runs the
 executable that produces the output you are currently reading.
 The Docker daemon streamed that output to the Docker client, which sent it
 to your terminal. 
 To try something more ambitious, you can run an Ubuntu container with:
  $ docker run -it ubuntu bash
 Share images, automate workflows, and more with a free Docker ID:

Execute few more docker commands and play with it.
