How to use mongorestore to restore multiple collections?

Question

I want to replicate mongodb from staging environment to my local development environment, but it seems, that mongorestore only takes a single collection as it's input source. Are there any simple way to do replication of multiple collections without some bash voodoo?

Answer 1

It seems there is no need for complicated script. You can just do:

mongorestore <dbname> --drop

in /dump directory to automatically restore all collections
