visionmedias flavor of binary management, ported for MongoDB.
$ npm install -g m
or
$ make install
Install a few versions, the version given becomes the active mongodb binary once installation is complete.
$ m 2.0.7
$ m 2.2.0-rc2
List installed binaries:
$ m
2.0.6
ο 2.0.7
2.2.0-rc2
Use or install the latest official release:
$ m latest
Use or install the stable official release:
$ m stable
Install a custom or patched version of mongodb from a tarball:
$ m custom 2.1.2-me https://github.com/aheckmann/mongo/tarball/r2.1.2
Remove some versions:
$ m rm 2.2.0-rc1
Instead of using rm we can simply use -:
$ m - 2.2.0-rc1
When running multiple versions of mongodb, we can target
them directly by asking m for the binary path:
$ m bin 2.0.7
/usr/local/m/versions/2.0.7/bin/
Execute a script with 2.0.7 regardless of the active version:
$ m use 2.0.7 some.js
with flags:
$ m as 2.0.7 --debug some.js
When installing or changing the active version we might want to run custom scripts:
$ m pre install /path/to/my/script
$ m post install /path/to/script
$ m pre change /path/to/my/script
$ m post change /path/to/script
List all post change hooks:
$ m post change
To remove a pre install hook:
$ m pre install rm /path/to/script
Remove all post install hooks:
$ m post install rm
Output from m --help:
Usage: m [options] [COMMAND] [config]

m post <event> rm [script] Remove post <event> script
Events:

install Occurs when installing a previously uninstalled mongodb version
Options:
-V, --version Output current version of m
-h, --help Display help information
Aliases:
- rm
which bin
use as
list ls
custom c
m by default installs mongodb to /usr/local/m/versions, from
which it can see what you have currently installed, and activate previously installed versions of mongodb when m <version> is invoked again.
Activated mongodb versions are then installed to the prefix /usr/local, which of course may be altered via the M_PREFIX environment variable.
To alter where m operates simply export M_PREFIX to whatever you prefer.
Yes tj, this is nearly identical to n. Huge thanks!
