mongorestore --verbose --drop --gzip --host=127.0.0.1 --port=27017 --username=admin --password=$PASSWORD --authenticationDatabase=admin --nsInclude="wexcommerce.*" --archive=wexcommerce.gz

Don't forget to set $PASSWORD.

If you are using MongoDB Atlas, put your MongoDB Atlas URI in --uri= command line argument:

mongorestore --verbose --drop --gzip --uri="mongodb://admin:$PASSWORD@127.0.0.1:27017/bookcars?authSource=admin&appName=wexcommerce" --nsInclude="wexcommerce.*" --nsFrom="wexcommerce.*" --nsTo="wexcommerce.*" --archive=wexcommerce.gz
