Maven plugin wrapper for the flapdoodle.de embedded MongoDB API.
This plugin lets you start and stop an instance of MongoDB during a Maven build, e.g. for integration testing. The Mongo instance isn't strictly embedded (it's not running within the JVM of your application), but it is a managed instance that exists only for the lifetime of your build.

- By default, the
start
goal is bound topre-integration-test
, thestop
goal is bound topost-integration-test
. You can of course bind to different phases if required. - If you omit/forget the
stop
goal, any Mongo process spawned by thestart
goal will be stopped when the JVM terminates. - If you want to run Maven builds in parallel you can use
randomPort
to avoid port conflicts, the value allocated will be available to other plugins in the project as a propertyembedmongo.port
. If you're using Jenkins, you can also try the Port Allocator Plugin. - If you need to use a proxy to download MongoDB then you can either use
-Dhttp.proxyHost
and-Dhttp.proxyPort
as additional Maven arguments (this will affect the entire build) or add proxy settings to your settings.xml. - If you're having trouble with Windows firewall rules, try setting the bindIp config property to
127.0.0.1
. - If you'd like the start goal to start mongodb and wait, you can add
-Dembedmongo.wait
to your Maven command line arguments or-Dembedmongo.import.wait
if you want the imports - If you are using a charset encoding to load scripts, refer to the IANA Charset Registry. Accepted charsets are found in the Preferred MIME Name column.
