If I visit https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/method/#connection , I see The very fact that `connect()` is not a link on the `mongo` CLI documentation page makes me think that there isn’t any documentation on the command. So after giving up looking for the docs the first time, I had to experiment to figure out how its `url` parameter works (hint: it doesn’t actually accept a URL!). Then later I found I was able to indirectly get to `connect()`’ docs and then saw that URIs are not supported and learned how to pass username/password correctly. I think this stumbling could be saved for others if the link was added. Thanks. |
