I have to meteor application in local (admin and client). Applications run on different port 3000 and 3003. I want to use both app should use the same DB. export MONGO_URL=mobgodb://127.0.0.1:3001/meteor will be okay. But I would like to know any argument to pass with meteor command to setup environment variable to use the same DB.

@Jesper. I just want this for development. for production, we can setup env variable `MONGO_URL`. I don't like to use `_driver` option in `Mongo.Collection` – Ramesh Murugesan Jun 03 '16 at 11:33

@BlueBells are you just looking for a startup script so you have to do less typing? – David Weldon Jun 03 '16 at 11:52

If you are looking for a start script you could do the following:
In the root of your app, create a file called start.sh:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
MONGO_URL=mobgodb://127.0.0.1:3001/meteor meteor --port 3000
Then run chmod +x start.sh
You can then start your app just by typing ./start.sh
