mongo-dev-server

Source code of released version | Source code of development version

When the mongo-dev-server package is included in a Meteor application, a local development MongoDB server is started alongside the application. This package is mostly used internally, as it is included by default with any application that has a dependency on mongo (which is most Meteor applications). In some cases however, people might be interested in using the Meteor Tool without having to start a local development Mongo instance (e.g. when using Meteor as a build system). If an application has no dependency on mongo, the mongo-dev-server package will be removed (since it is a direct dependency of the mongo package), and no local development Mongo server will be started.

Note this is a debugOnly package, meaning it will not be included in any production bundles.
