 +  # Now load the ros-cl-mongo package and interact with the database using it
 +  
 +Further usage instructions on cl-mongo are available at [[https://github.com/fons/cl-mongo|https://github.com/fons/cl-mongo]]
 +==== Locating the Database ====
 +The database is by default located in ''/var/lib/mongodb/'' where you are able to notice the databases named ``roslog.1`` etc. The mongo client knows about this path so starting mongo from any resonable location will still access this databases. Of course this path can be changed using the ''--dbpath'' flag on mongo to change where to read or write. In summary the database features of importance are;
 +  * Hostname : localhost (by default)
 +  * Port: 27017 (default)
 +  * Locatation: ''/var/lib/mongodb/''
 +
 +
 +==== Examples of usage ====
 +We have compiled simple example of logging with this tool and querying the data using either lisp or python. The examples are in the links below:
