Installing MongoDB Foreign Data Wrapper on RHEL 8 or OL 8 x86_64 v5

Prerequisites

Before you begin the installation process:

  • Install Postgres on the same host. See:

  • Set up the EDB repository.

    Setting up the repository is a one-time task. If you have already set up your repository, you don't need to perform this step.

    To determine if your repository exists, enter this command:

    dnf repolist | grep enterprisedb

    If no output is generated, the repository isn't installed.

    To set up the EDB repository:

    1. Go to EDB repositories.

    2. Select the button that provides access to the EDB repository.

    3. Select the platform and software that you want to download.

    4. Follow the instructions for setting up the EDB repository.

  • Install the EPEL repository:

    sudo dnf -y install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-8.noarch.rpm

Install the package

sudo dnf -y install edb-as15-mongo_fdw

Where 15 is the version of EDB Postgres Advanced Server. Replace 15 with the version of EDB Postgres Advanced Server you are using.
