Installing MongoDB with Homebrew on MAC

  • 29 May, 2020

When i execute brew install mongodb the error message above appears :

Error: No available formula with the name "mongodb" ==> Searching for a previously deleted formula (in the last month)... Warning: homebrew/core is shallow clone. To get complete history run:git -C "$(brew --repo homebrew/core)" fetch --unshallow Error: No previously deleted formula found. ==> Searching for similarly named formulae... Error: No similarly named formulae found. ==> Searching taps... ==> Searching taps on GitHub... Error: No formulae found in taps.

How i solve this problem:

The formula mongodb has been removed from homebrew-core.  So i need to use a custom tap made by mongodb team

I used the following commands

brew update brew tap mongodb/brew brew install mongodb-community sudo mkdir /data/db chmod -Rv /data/db

Now i can run mongod to start the server or if you want you can use brew services start mongodb-community

rsync is faster than scp to copy files between machines

  • 31 Dec, 2024

rsync is generally faster than scp for copying files, especially when transferring a large amount of data or syncing directories. Here's why: 1. Incremental Transfers - rsync: Only transfers the parts of files that have changed, rather than the entire file. This makes subsequent transfers much faster. - scp: Always transfers the entire file, even if only a small part of it has changed. 2. Compression - rsync: Supports compression during the transfer (using the -z option), which reduces the amount of data sent over the network. - scp: Also supports compression (using the -C option), but it doesn't have the same efficiency in skipping unchanged data. 3. Resume Support - rsync: Can
