Connecting to Mongo with a GUI

Use a client like Robomongo to connect to the database.

After the user-api is set up and the database as been seeded, ssh into vagrant and do the following.

1. Comment out the bind_ip line from /etc/mongod.conf.

# Listen to local interface only. Comment out to listen on all interfaces.
# bind_ip = 127.0.0.1

2. Create an admin mongo user.

use admin

db.createUser(
    {
      user: "homestead",
      pwd: "secret",
      roles: [ "root" ]
    }
)

3. Restart mongo

sudo service mongod restart

4. Connect to mongo with the client.
