Since that documentation was written, XCode and Yosemite have been released, which has caused some hiccups in installation. Here are the steps we had to go through to get Meteor compiled to an iOS device. Upgrade ...

Then go into the mongo shell and initiate the replica set, like so: mongo > rs.initiate() PRIMARY> rs.add("mongo-a") PRIMARY> rs.add("mongo-b") PRIMARY> rs.add("mongo-c") PRIMARY> rs.setReadPref('secondaryPreferred')

The replica set will need an oplog user to access the database. mongo PRIMARY> use admin PRIMARY> db.addUser({user:"oplogger",pwd:"YOUR_PASSWORD",roles:[],otherDBRoles:{local:["read"]}}); PRIMARY> show users

The analog to the meteordump command is meteorrestore. You can do a partial import by selecting the specific collection to import. Particularly useful after running a drop command. # make sure your app is running meteor # then import your data mongorestore --port 3001 --db meteor /path/to/dump...

Delete the local database files. Just exit the Mongo shell, navigate to the /dbpath (wherever you set it up), and delete the files within that directory.

Did you know about the --url flag? Very handy. meteor mongo --url YOURSITE.meteor.com

db.posts.find().forEach(function(doc){ db.posts.update({_id: doc._id}, {$set:{'version':'v1.0'}}, false, true); });

db.posts.find().forEach(function(doc){ if(doc.arrayOfObjects){ // the false, true at the end refers to $upsert, and $multi, respectively db.accounts.update({_id: doc._id}, {$unset: {'arrayOfObjects': "" }}, false, true); } });

db.originalName.renameCollection("newName" );

db.posts.find().forEach(function(doc){ if(doc.oldField){ db.posts.update({_id: doc._id}, {$set:{'newField':doc.oldField}}, false, true); } });

db.posts.find().forEach(function(doc){ if(doc.commentsBlobId){ var commentsBlob = db.comments.findOne({'_id': commentsBlobId }); db.posts.update({_id: doc._id}, {$set:{'comments': commentsBlob }}, false, true); } });

db.posts.find().forEach(function(doc){ if(!doc.foo){ db.posts.update({_id: doc._id}, {$set:{'foo':''}}, false, true); } });

db.posts.find().forEach(function(doc){ if(!doc.foo){ db.posts.update({_id: doc._id}, {$set:{'foo':'bar'}}, false, true); } });

db.posts.find().forEach(function(doc){ if(doc.foo === 'bar'){ db.posts.remove({_id: doc._id}); } });

db.posts.find().forEach(function(doc){ if(doc._id){ db.posts.update({_id: doc._id}, {$set:{ timestamp: new Date(parseInt(doc._id.str.slice(0,8), 16) *1000) }}, false, true); } });

var timestamp = Math.floor(new Date(1974, 6, 25).getTime() / 1000); var hex = ('00000000' + timestamp.toString(16)).substr(-8); // zero padding var objectId = new ObjectId(hex + new ObjectId().str.substring(8));

What we're doing here is referencing the array index using dot notation db.posts.find({"tags.0": {$exists: true }})
