Create a database user in MongoDB using Java
Can you please try this for creating user:
MongoClient mongo = new MongoClient("localhost", 27017);
MongoDatabase db = mongo.getDatabase("testDB");
Map<String, Object> commandArguments = new HashMap<>();
commandArguments.put("createUser", "dev");
commandArguments.put("pwd", "password123");
String[] roles = { "readWrite" };
commandArguments.put("roles", roles);
BasicDBObject command = new BasicDBObject(commandArguments);
db.runCommand(command);
Both ways did not work for me. However this way worked:
final MongoDatabase db = mongoClient.getDatabase("myDatabase");
final BasicDBObject createUserCommand = new BasicDBObject("createUser", "myuser").append("pwd", "mypassword").append("roles",
Collections.singletonList(new BasicDBObject("role", "dbOwner").append("db", "myDatabase")));
db.runCommand(createUserCommand);
