Mongo cli not parsing .mongojs.rc file

Working with Data Developer Tools
1

Want to use mongo cli to autologin to my server using connection string from debian buster.

Tried to put login info in home directory file

~/.mongorc.js

with content
db = connect(‘localhost:27017/’);
db.auth(’’, ‘’);

but mongo cli binary is not parsing this info,

If anyone can help me understand, please do reply what am I doing wrong here???

By default mongo shell connects to localhost:27017 with no credentials. It means you have nothing to do in order to do what you want to do.

See https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/mongo/

In particular You can run mongo shell without any command-line options to connect to a MongoDB instance running on your localhost with default port 27017:
