Export MongoDB database from Docker #1

The goal is to export the MongoDB containing cached Crossref items. We could then archive this file, say on figshare, so others don't have to submit insane amounts of API queries.

Currently, I've tried the following command

# Dump docker
docker run \
  --rm \
  --link=mongo-crossref:mongo-crossref-dump \
  --volume=`pwd`/db-export:/backup \
  mongo:3.4.2 \
  bash -c 'mongodump --out=/backup --host=0.0.0.0'

However, this errs with:

Failed: error connecting to db server: no reachable servers
