Connecting:

go run connect.go

JavaJava

Before connecting:

  1. Install the dependencies:

    sudo apt update && sudo apt install --yes default-jdk maven
    
  2. Add the SSL certificate to the Java trusted certificate store (Java Key Store) so that the Yandex StoreDoc driver can use this certificate for secure connections to the cluster hosts. Set a password in the -storepass parameter for storage protection:

    cd ~/.mongodb && \
    sudo keytool -importcert \
                 -alias YandexCA -file root.crt \
                 -keystore ssl -storepass <password> \
                 --noprompt
    

    Where storepass is your certificate store password, a minimum of 6 characters.

  3. Create a directory for the Maven project:

    cd ~/ && \
    mkdir --parents project/src/java/com/example && \
    cd ~/project
    
  4. Create a configuration file for Maven:

    pom.xml
