What is the method to determine the mongoDB version within a particular docker image?

After downloading the 7.0.14 docker image for “MongoDB packaged by Bitnami”, I would like to determine what is the MongoDB version that is package in this container. Is there a way to determine this before performing an installation?

Hi @oradba_Luv_N_A

mongod --version is the invocation to find the version of mongodb installed. This is no different in a container environment.

As expected the version matches that of the container :wink:

docker run --rm bitnami/mongodb:7.0.14 mongod --version
mongodb 00:01:16.04 INFO  ==>

At the current time there isn’t an environment I can use to run the command “docker run”. Thus I’m unable to apply the command “`mongod --version”. Thank you for the detail that indicated the MongoDB version is 7.0.14.
