mongodb - CLI option to give encoding format to 'mongoimport ' -

does mongoimport cli command support utf-8 format files?

is there way provide encoding format that, can accept non-utf-8 files, without manually converting each file utf-8?

this 1 way of doing on linux/unix. use iconv convert non-utf8 utf8 , use mongoimport on converted file:

iconv -f iso-8859-1 -t utf-8 myfile.csv > myfileutf8.csv 

man iconv should give more details options

also, import csv file (contains non-utf8 characters) in mongodb discusses options windows.
