Currently when I open a collection in a given server for analysis, the tab only shows the collection name without any indication of the connection used. This can be tricky if I have similarly named collections in multiple databases to which I have an open connection. The tab top part shows the server IP, which helps, but I’d personally prefer the connection name. Maybe there could be some option to include connection name in tab name or replace the IP with the name?

Table View - When a user hovers over a field that has multiple fields nested - that portion of the JSON could be shown in a tooltip. A user can browse through data very easily.

Would be great if we had an option to populate ObjectIds (like Mongoose Populate or SQL join) as a feature for MongoChef.

Mongoose Populate:
http://mongoosejs.com/docs/populate.html

A blazing fast software that will remove duplicate MongoDB records.

Currently the sorted column is reset and the rows are re-arranged so I cannot look for changes by simple refresh.

Provide more human readable colour scheme.

Store by the database + field path pair. Currently is is remembered only until you close the tab.

Suppose we have the following connection string: mongodb://user:password@localhost/test

In this example and according to the documenation, the 'test' database will be used for authentication as well as the database you connect to. The documentation specifies an 'authenticationDatabase' query parameter to customize this a little bit.

For example: mongodb://user:password@localhost/test?authenticationDatabase=admin

This changes the connection string to mean that you should connect to 'test' but authenticate against 'admin'. It would be nice to have GUI support for this.

In the JSON view there is no clear indication where one record begins and the other ends in case there are multiple results.

I would love to have an option/preference to allow me to have a collection open/refresh in Tree View will all documents collapsed or expanded; this way I can choose which way I want to see my data.

Just a pet peeve when I have 100 documents and only want to see the collapsed view.

I'm not sure if it the best idea. What I'm trying to achieve is this scenario:
I have default view set to tree view, but when I have displayed only 1 document, it's better shown in the tree mode. I think 1 document lists are common cases, e.g. after following reference, searching by specific _id, after using findOne. In Robomongo changing view is one click task, here is 2 click (with delay of opening list and selecting).

with the op option, and possibly with modifiers like jsonstudio.

the compression is negligible and we have to do another step to install updates.

_id can be of any type, except array: http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/core/document/#field-names

It would be nice if you could add a simple overview where you can compare the collection stats of a db + the db stats of an instance

I'm most intrested in count, size, storageSize and index size.

Smaller solution: format the stats mentioned above human readable (2,5GB instead of 2512354123)

My query is: { "ArrayField": { $ne: [] } }
I saved "[]" as value type "Undefined".
When i load the query, i get this:
{ "ArrayField": { $ne: true } }

We are being asked about adding support for Mongoose to MongoChef.
What's your opinion? What would you expect?

May be it's ridicule but can I watch the changes on real time? event I can edit graphically fields and collections

and must be force quit.

Ideal behaviour: notify user that query is still running, ask whether is should be canceled and then quit or don't quit accordingly.

PS this software rocks. :)
