Lisbon, If you have ever been here, you know the streets are a wild mix of steep hills, narrow cobblestone alleys, and confusing one-way roads. Navigating this city takes serious skill. The yellow tra
If you have been paying attention to the AI space for the last few months, you know the fatigue is real. We have spent three years typing into a box, getting a paragraph of text back, copying it, past
I have always wondered how Apple does their spatial photos on iOS and especially on the new Apple Vision Pro. If you have tried the headset, or even just tilted your phone while looking at a "spatial" capture, you know that weird, distinct feeling of...

I’m sitting here with a hot cup of coffee, about halfway through Google’s new paper on "Nested Learning," and I have to be honest: I need to get this out of my head and onto the screen. Usually, when a big lab drops a paper, I skim the abstract, nod ...
Hey there, i'll take it you are here because you have had a hard time installing Mongodb on your macOS yes? Well i had the same issue and, below i will share the reason why and how you can fix this issue.
Actually, Catalina 10.5 upwards has a surprise change: it won't allow changes to the root directory, this was discussed on the reddit here.
Here is how you can get this fixed and have mongodb running locally on your macos.
xcode-select --install
hey brew you can tap into any other resource" in our case we would say:brew tap mongodb/brew
and here pretty much we have brew saying, "okay, i am now aware of one more resource which is mongodb"
brew install mongodb-community@5.0
Note: you can specify the version you wanna install
Now from here this won't give you immediate access to mongodb, you need to at least start the services, it's a server and it needs to be started. So, lets get started with the services of mongodb.
So we will run the command bellow which will say to brew "hey brew, you have services and from that i wanna start a spacial service called mongodb-community@5.0" with the command below
brew services start mongodb-community@5.0
After running this, you should get a successfull message saying:
==> Successfully started `mongodb-community@5.0` (label: homebrew.mxcl.mongodb-community@5.0)
Note:Now similarly to stop this service you use the same command except you will pass the argument stop as seen below:
brew services stop mongodb-community@5.0
Whenever you need to use mongodb you will have to run the command to start it. But obviously you don't wanna do this again and again, you wanna keep this up and running and for that all you have to do is link it.
Here things will look different depending on the processor you are running, if you are on M1 chip or intel.
brew link mongodb-community@5.0
mongod --config /opt/homebrew/etc/mongod.conf --fork
...and that's it!!!
From here you can just run:
mongosh
Hope that helps!
PS: You can also use MongoDB Compass to visually manage your mongodb databases.
