MongoDB “root” user

Question

Do we have a "root" user for MongoDB? I have also referred to the official docs and have implemented many combinations, but couldn't able to get the answer... 

Answer 1

Note that MongoDB is not having any authentication, for developing the reet user you can use any role and assign that role to a particular user in the admin database. You can refer the following implementation for assigning the role to a particular user:

use admin

db.addUser( { user: "<username>",

          pwd: "<password>",

          roles: [ "userAdminAnyDatabase",

                   "dbAdminAnyDatabase",

                   "readWriteAnyDatabase"

] } )
