- **mongoexport** - _Write an existing collection to CSV or JSON format_
- **mongodump/mongorestore** - _Dump MongoDB backups to disk in .BSON format, or restore them to a
live database_
- **mongostat** - _Monitor live MongoDB servers, replica sets, or sharded clusters_
- **mongofiles** - _Read, write, delete, or update files in
[GridFS](http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/core/gridfs/)_

## Building Tools

We currently build the tools with Go version 1.15. Other Go versions may work but they are untested.

Using `go get` to directly build the tools will not work. To build them, it's recommended to first
clone this repository:

```
git clone https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-tools
cd mongo-tools
```

Then run `./make build` to build all the tools, placing them in the `bin` directory inside the
repository.

You can also build a subset of the tools using the `-pkgs` option. For example,
`./make build -pkgs=mongodump,mongorestore` builds only `mongodump` and `mongorestore`.

To use the build/test scripts in this repository, you **_must_** set GOROOT to your Go root
directory. This may depend on how you installed Go.

```
export GOROOT=/usr/local/go
```

## Updating Dependencies

Starting with version 100.3.1, the tools use `go mod` to manage dependencies. All dependencies are
listed in the `go.mod` file and are directly vendored in the `vendor` directory.

In order to make changes to dependencies, you first need to change the `go.mod` file. You can
manually edit that file to add/update/remove entries, or you can run the following in the repository
directory:

```
go mod edit -require=@ # for adding or updating a dependency
go mod edit -droprequire= # for removing a dependency
```

Then run `go mod vendor -v` to reconstruct the `vendor` directory to match the changed `go.mod`
file.

Optionally, run `go mod tidy -v` to ensure that the `go.mod` file matches the `mongo-tools` source
code.
