MongoDB

Kythia Workspace provides an automated, seamlessly integrated MongoDB environment.

  1. Go to Databases -> MongoDB
  2. Select a version from the dropdown menu and click Install
  3. Kythia will download the official MongoDB binaries directly to your local environment.

By default, MongoDB is configured to run on your localhost without conflict.

Host 127.0.0.1

Kythia manages basic configurations for you automatically. If you need to make advanced changes, the configuration files for MongoDB are located at:

C:\kythia\bin\mongodb\{version}\conf\

Data files (where your actual database records live) are stored safely at:

C:\kythia\data\mongodb\

Log files are extremely useful for debugging failed queries or startup issues. They are located at:

C:\kythia\bin\mongodb\{version}\logs\

You can also view the logs in real-time directly via the Logs button in the Kythia UI.
