.SH SYNOPSIS
.sp
The \fBmongofiles\fP utility makes it possible to manipulate files
stored in your MongoDB instance in \fIGridFS\fP objects from the
command line. It is particularly useful as it provides an interface
between objects stored in your file system and GridFS.
.sp
All \fBmongofiles\fP commands have the following form:
.INDENT 0.0
.INDENT 3.5
.sp
.nf
.ft C
mongofiles <options> <commands> <filename>
.ft P
.fi
.UNINDENT
.UNINDENT
.sp
The components of the \fBmongofiles\fP command are:
.INDENT 0.0
.IP 1. 3
\fI\%Options\fP\&. You may use one or more of
these options to control the behavior of \fBmongofiles\fP\&.
.IP 2. 3
\fI\%Commands\fP\&. Use one of these commands to
determine the action of \fBmongofiles\fP\&.
.IP 3. 3
A filename which is either: the name of a file on your local\(aqs file
system, or a GridFS object.
.UNINDENT
.sp
\fBmongofiles\fP, like \fBmongodump\fP, \fBmongoexport\fP,
\fBmongoimport\fP, and \fBmongorestore\fP, can access data
stored in a MongoDB data directory without requiring a running
\fBmongod\fP instance, if no other \fBmongod\fP is running.
.sp
\fBIMPORTANT:\fP
.INDENT 0.0
.INDENT 3.5
For \fIreplica sets\fP,
\fBmongofiles\fP can only read from the set\(aqs
\(aq\fIprimary\fP\&.
.UNINDENT
.UNINDENT
.SH OPTIONS
.sp
Changed in version 3.0.0: \fBmongofiles\fP removed the \fB\-\-dbpath\fP as well as related
\fB\-\-directoryperdb\fP and \fB\-\-journal\fP options. You must use
\fBmongofiles\fP while connected to a \fBmongod\fP instance.
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B mongofiles
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-help

or in log files. Increase the verbosity with the \fB\-v\fP form by
including the option multiple times, (e.g. \fB\-vvvvv\fP\&.)
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-quiet

.UNINDENT
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-version
Returns the \fBmongofiles\fP release number.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-host <hostname><:port>
Specifies a resolvable hostname for the \fBmongod\fP that holds
your GridFS system. By default \fBmongofiles\fP attempts to connect
to a MongoDB process running on the localhost port number \fB27017\fP\&.
.sp
Optionally, specify a port number to connect a MongoDB instance running
on a port other than 27017.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-port <port>
\fIDefault\fP: 27017
.sp
Specifies the TCP port on which the MongoDB instance listens for
client connections.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-ipv6
Enables IPv6 support and allows the \fBmongofiles\fP to connect to the
MongoDB instance using an IPv6 network. All MongoDB programs and
processes disable IPv6 support by default.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-ssl
New in version 2.6.
.sp
Enables connection to a \fBmongod\fP or \fBmongos\fP that has
SSL support enabled.
.sp
The default distribution of MongoDB does not contain support for SSL.
For more information on MongoDB and SSL, see http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/configure\-ssl\&.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-sslCAFile <filename>
New in version 2.6.
.sp
Specifies the \fB\&.pem\fP file that contains the root certificate chain
from the Certificate Authority. Specify the file name of the
\fB\&.pem\fP file using relative or absolute paths.
.sp
The default distribution of MongoDB does not contain support for SSL.
For more information on MongoDB and SSL, see http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/configure\-ssl\&.
.sp
\fBWARNING:\fP
.INDENT 7.0
.INDENT 3.5
If the \fBmongo\fP shell or any other tool that connects to
\fBmongos\fP or \fBmongod\fP is run without
\fI\-\-sslCAFile\fP, it will not attempt to validate
server certificates. This results in vulnerability to expired
\fBmongod\fP and \fBmongos\fP certificates as well as to foreign
processes posing as valid \fBmongod\fP or \fBmongos\fP
instances. Ensure that you \fIalways\fP specify the CA file against which
server certificates should be validated in cases where intrusion is a
possibility.

.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-sslPEMKeyFile <filename>
New in version 2.6.
.sp
Specifies the \fB\&.pem\fP file that contains both the SSL certificate
and key. Specify the file name of the \fB\&.pem\fP file using relative
or absolute paths.
.sp
This option is required when using the \fI\-\-ssl\fP option to connect
to a \fBmongod\fP or \fBmongos\fP that has
\fBCAFile\fP enabled \fIwithout\fP
\fBallowConnectionsWithoutCertificates\fP\&.
.sp
The default distribution of MongoDB does not contain support for SSL.

.B \-\-sslPEMKeyPassword <value>
New in version 2.6.
.sp
Specifies the password to de\-crypt the certificate\-key file (i.e.
\fI\-\-sslPEMKeyFile\fP). Use the \fI\-\-sslPEMKeyPassword\fP option only if the
certificate\-key file is encrypted. In all cases, the \fBmongofiles\fP will
redact the password from all logging and reporting output.
.sp
If the private key in the PEM file is encrypted and you do not specify
the \fI\-\-sslPEMKeyPassword\fP option, the \fBmongofiles\fP will prompt for a passphrase. See
\fIssl\-certificate\-password\fP\&.
.sp
The default distribution of MongoDB does not contain support for SSL.

.sp
Bypasses the validation checks for server certificates and allows
the use of invalid certificates. When using the
\fBallowInvalidCertificates\fP setting, MongoDB logs as a
warning the use of the invalid certificate.
.sp
The default distribution of MongoDB does not contain support for SSL.
For more information on MongoDB and SSL, see http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/configure\-ssl\&.
.UNINDENT

.TP
.B \-\-sslFIPSMode
New in version 2.6.
.sp
Directs the \fBmongofiles\fP to use the FIPS mode of the installed OpenSSL
library. Your system must have a FIPS compliant OpenSSL library to use
the \fI\-\-sslFIPSMode\fP option.

.TP
.B \-\-replace, \-r
Alters the behavior of \fBmongofiles put\fP to replace existing
GridFS objects with the specified local file, rather than adding an
additional object with the same name.
