    • Type: Bug
    • Resolution: Fixed
    • Priority: Minor - P4
    • 4.2.1
    • Affects Version/s: 3.4.7
    • Component/s: mongoexport
    • None

      On macOS 10.12.6:

      $ mongoexport --help
...
  -k, --slaveOk                                   allow secondary reads if
                                                  available (default true)
                                                  (default: false)

      Can the value of --slaveOk default to both true and false at the same time?

      The presence of multiple default values also appears to affect type:

      $ mongoexport --help
...
      --type=<type>                               the output format, either
                                                  json or csv (defaults to
                                                  'json') (default: json)
