Today I will show you how to install the MongoDB on Fedora 31 distro.
MongoDB is a general-purpose, document-based, distributed database built for modern application developers and for the cloud.
You can see the source code for MongoDb at
the GitHub website.
First, you need to create a repository file.
[mythcat@desk ~]$ su
Password:
[root@desk mythcat]# vi /etc/yum.repos.d/mongodb.repo
Add the code for this repository file.
[mongodb-org-4.2]
name=MongoDB Repository
baseurl=https://repo.mongodb.org/yum/redhat/8Server/mongodb-org/testing/x86_64/
gpgcheck=1
enabled=1
gpgkey=https://www.mongodb.org/static/pgp/server-4.2.asc
Let's search this Fedora apckage with
dnf tool
[root@desk mythcat]# dnf search mongodb-org

Use the netstat utility to confirm that indeed Mongod service is listening.
[root@desk mythcat]# netstat -pnltu | grep mongo
