Am new to mongo db. I have a single json file which contains several documents.
When i try to upload the file through mongoimport, the file is considered as a single document to be created where as there are several documents to be created through the same file.
Below is import command.
mongoimport --db mydb --collection testData --type json --file var/www/html/orders.json --jsonArray
Running this command throws the following error:
exception:JSONArray file too large
From MongoDB docs, always refer to docs before posting on stackoverflow:
--jsonArray Changed in version 2.2: The limit on document size increased from 4MB to 16MB.
Accept import of data expressed with multiple MongoDB documents within a single JSON array.
Use in conjunction with mongoexport --jsonArray to import data written as a single JSON array. Limited to imports of 16 MB or smaller.
Mongoimport is used to upload the JSON file into Mongodb. File should be in well formatted manner. MongoDB will limit to 16MB file.
mongoimport --host hosturl --port 27017 --username uname --password pwd -- collection collname --db marketing --file filepathwithFilename
