Install MongoDB on Debian Buster

How to install the latest MongoDB 3.4 or even 3.6? They support with Ubuntu, but my server is Debian Buster and I am stuck with MongoDB 3.2.

I have found the solution for a build script, the description is found here:

https://github.com/patrikx3/docker-debian-testing-mongodb-stable

The description:

Debian Stretch / Buster / Bullseye / Testing MongoDB and MongoDB Tools build stable builder script, what it does as exactly:

It is basically a built for the latest MongoDB for Debian.

The current varsion is the r4.0.x build (release).

Warning It will remove all mongodb* apt packages in ./scripts/build-server.sh and /etc/systemd/system/mongodb-server.service is replaced.

It install the required apt dependencies and generates the SystemD service and makes it enabled.

Check if the build works (building is below). It runs all tests, so if it works, then it really does, actually. If there is an error, of course, you will not deploy on your server. So, if building and testing works, then it puts the binaries as it follow and you are sure and done.

The build as follows build-server.sh: 

#!/usr/bin/env bash
# based on https://github.com/mongodb/mongo/wiki/Build-Mongodb-From-Source

# the current directory
DIR="$( cd "$( dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}" )" && pwd )"

# if an error exit right away, don't continue the build
set -e

# some info
echo
#echo "Works like command, use a tag: sudo ./scripts/build-server.sh r4.2.0"
echo "Works like command, use a tag: sudo ./scripts/build-server.sh r4.0.12"
echo

# check if we are root
if [[ $EUID -ne 0 ]]; then
   echo "This script must be ran via root 'sudo' command or using in 'sudo -i'."
   exit 1
fi

# require mongo branch
#if [ -z "${1}" ]; then
#    echo "First argument must be the MONGODB_BRANCH for example 'v4.1'"
#    exit 1
#fi
#MONGODB_BRANCH="${1}"

# require mongo release
#if [ -z "${2}" ]; then
#    echo "The second argument must be the MONGODB_RELEASE for example 'r4.1.0'"
#    exit 1
#fi
#MONGODB_RELEASE="${2}"

# require mongo release
if [ -z "${1}" ]; then
    echo "The first argument must be the MONGODB_RELEASE for example 'r4.0.12'"
    exit 1
fi
MONGODB_RELEASE="${1}"

I don't know if this is a good idea yet, but I just installed it by adding the sid repos and installing using the mongodb-server package. For me this installs version 3.4.18.

I created /etc/apt/sources.list.d/sid.list with:

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ sid main
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ sid main

then did

apt update
apt install mongodb-server

and verified that it's working by connecting with mongo.
