MongoDB Go Driver¶
Introduction¶
This is the official MongoDB Go Driver.
Installation¶
The recommended way to get started using the MongoDB Go driver is by using Go modules
mkdir goproj
cd goproj
go mod init goproj
go get go.mongodb.org/mongo-driver/mongoSee Installation for additional ways to add the driver to your project.
Connect to MongoDB Atlas¶
To connect to a MongoDB Atlas cluster, use the Atlas connection string for your cluster:
import "go.mongodb.org/mongo-driver/mongo"
ctx, _ := context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), 10*time.Second)
client, err := mongo.Connect(ctx, options.Client().ApplyURI(
"mongodb+srv://<username>:<password>@<cluster-address>/test?w=majority"
))
if err != nil { log.Fatal(err) }See Usage for more detail.
