Question: Does the meteor dev database run? #5

Closed darkadept closed 8 years ago

When running in dev mode, does the meteor database also run?

I'm assuming you need to have your own database configured? Also, how does one go about connecting meteor to the database? It might be a good addition to the README.

Whoops, good question, I forgot to mention that -- you have to run mongod yourself in a separate shell.

As in a production Meteor app, the connection is configured by the MONGO_URL environment variable, which I put in the .env file.
