To dump your database for backup you call this command on your terminal

mongodump --db database_name --collection collection_name

To import your backup file to mongodb you can use the following command on your terminal

mongorestore --db database_name path_to_bson_file

You can also use gzip for taking backup of one collection and compressing the backup on the fly:

mongodump --db somedb --collection somecollection --out - | gzip > collectiondump.gz

or with a date in the file name:

mongodump --db somedb --collection somecollection --out - | gzip > dump_`date "+%Y-%m-%d"`.gz

Update:
Backup all collections of a database in a date folder. The files are gziped:

mongodump --db somedb --gzip --out /backups/`date +"%Y-%m-%d"`

Or for a single archive:

mongodump --db somedb --gzip --archive > dump_`date "+%Y-%m-%d"`.gz

Or when mongodb is running inside docker:

docker exec <CONTAINER> sh -c 'exec mongodump --db somedb --gzip --archive' > dump_`date "+%Y-%m-%d"`.gz
