How to get list of all mongo databases in javascript while using any other database?

Question

I'm trying to list all the databases while working inside some 'abc' database using javascript. my admin username is 'xyz' and password is 'abc'. But it is displaying an error- error: uncaughtException: Mongo is not defined. can anyone guide me for the same? thanx.

Answer 1

From the console you can simply run show dbs

If you need the output in a Javascript object, try db.adminCommand('listDatabases')

Answer 2

Actually the problem was with authentication of db. The mongo I'm using requires admin authentication before querying or trying any command to process data. I inserted code to authenticate db and got access to db.admin() function of mongodb.

By the way thanx to @arcyqwerty and @Amadan for your support.
