Mongo Service Shell
A simple shell application for submitting minified JSON payloads to the service.
I developed this shell to make it easier to interact with MongoDB from a server. This obviates the need to look up the database connection string, credentials etc. when we wish to access the database directly. With this utility, I am able to shell
into a running service docker container, and start the shell
when I want to run queries/commands against the configured database.
Sample query submitted to the service via the shell running on my localhost.

Showing the display from the help option to the shell.
