https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/command/listShards/
Although page provides example usage of the listShards command, it doesn't provide any details on what is actually returned. It merely states that the command "returns a list of shards." What does a shard look like, in the context of the command?
It would be helpful to see some example output like what's on this page: https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/command/isdbgrid/#dbcmd.isdbgrid
Here's the output of the command on my local machine. Three shards, each a standalone mongod:
{
"shards" : [
{
"_id" : "4a0f71de-e0e1-42da-86ee-4a70ebdeae8a",
"host" : "localhost:1028",
"state" : 1
},
{
"_id" : "7c3da9c7-5a49-4539-bc9b-3343e8984ecf",
"host" : "localhost:1029",
"state" : 1
},
{
"_id" : "7fce9155-6c41-4cc3-9c54-477330d49c56",
"host" : "localhost:1030",
"state" : 1
}
],
"ok" : 1
}
