As a Library

Import

const restore = require('s3-mongo-restore');

Create a configuration Object

var restoreConfig = {
  mongodb: "mongodb://localhost:27017", // MongoDB URI
    s3: {
      secretKey: "<s3 secret key>",     // S3 Secret Key
      accessKey: "<s3 access key>",     // S3 Access Key
      region: "<s3 region>",            // S3 Region
      bucketName: "<s3 bucket name>"    // S3 Bucket Name
    }      
}

Call the Function and pass configuration object to it

This module exposes two functions, List and Restore. List is used to list all the backups in the database and takes just the configuration object. Restore is used to restore a database and takes the configuration object and the name of database.

//List
restore.List(restoreConfig)
  .then(result => {
    // When everything is ok, result is an Object containing information about all the backups
      console.log(result);
}, error => {
    // When Anything goes wrong!
    console.log(error);
});

//Restore
restore.Restore(restoreConfig, "<A backup name>")
    .then(result => {
        console.log(result);
    }, error => {
        console.log(error);
    });
