MongoDB bulk loading 36000 files

Question

I am newbie to mongoDB. Currently I have a dataframe with the full path to 36000 json files. I downloaded the mongoimport and placed it in my install bin directory. I would like to create a loop of some sort to load all files into my local install of mongodb. Should I do this in python or does the mongoimport have this feature that can be leveraged.

Answer 1

Perhaps there maybe a better way to do this but since I already have all the file paths in a dataframe.

I generated a string like below

mongoimport --db DBNAME --collection NAME --file C:\some\path\file.json

Created for all 36000 files then I put it in a bat file and ran the bat file from the command line. This loaded all the files 1 by 1.
