title: MongoDb - Export database to js script (similar to rockmongo export)
body: <p>Is there a way from the command line that I can dump a MongoDb database to a javascript file that can be interpreted by the mongo shell? I am looking for a way to do exactly what the RockMongo Export function does, but I need to be able to call it from a command line script. I've looked everywhere for something that does this but all I can seem to find is mongoexport and mongodump which don't seem to do what I want, as these just create JSON files.</p>
  
  <p>The reason I need to do this is because codeception's MongoDb module requires a file in this format to restore the database after each test. I want to write a script to automate this process so that I don't have to constantly go through RockMongo and generate the dump. </p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance!</p>
