Charts

MongoDB Charts is the best way to create visualizations of MongoDB data. Connect to any MongoDB instance as a data source, create charts and graphs, embed them into your applications or build live dashboards for sharing and collaboration.

  1. Axis custom styling

    It'd be great to be able to change the font size, color, and also the orientation of the labels.
    Setting a maximum and minimum font size would be awesome.

  2. Get the fields corresponding to a Max/Min document

    When I view the max/min aggregate in the charts, I would like to see the corresponding document's field. For example, I want to visualise a table like below,
    id max(field1) field2ofmaximumfield1

  3. Hyperlinks in charts

    The idea is to be able to create hyperlinks with data from the charts in order to create connections with other web apps. This is similar to a Kibana functionality

  4. Make Charts Loading Screen Contextually Relevant

    Add the Chart Title to its Loading dialog.

    Would solve some UX problems for embedded charts - letting the user know what is coming to fill the space. There are workarounds for this currently (i.e. not using the charts title and having it on the render end instead... or having a conditional display that waits for the chart to load) but it would seem a more integrated experience all around to add context relevance to the Loading dialog, if possible.

    Thanks!

  5. server to database drill down for Ops Manager metrics

    When looking at server charts in Ops Manager METRICS, it would be good to have the ability to drill down to the database level. For example, I can easily see #connections to a host via Ops Manager UI. But, I want to know which databases in the cluster are being connected to, and currently, I have to mine the mongod logs for that.
    This is discussed https://support.mongodb.com/case/00687156

  6. lowlevel data api

    Mongodb-charts is great but still lacking a lot of features (which is not super surprising given it's age). To work around mobile issues, missing zoom, server side rendering and similar it would be great if the sdk exposed a low level data endpoint so that we can create our own visualizations on top of the aggregated & cached data from mongodb charts.

    I imagine sth like:

    const sdk = new ChartsEmbedSDK({
    baseUrl,
    });
    const data = await sdk.getData({chartId})

    unrelated side note: it would be great if the embed sdk was open source so that we can just contribute little enhancements…

  7. Community-generated visualization types

    My suggestion is to allow for community-created visualization plugins, also called custom visualizations.
    This type of functionality is offered on popular visualization tools like Grafana, MS Power BI and Google Data Studio.
    In this way, you can leverage the power of the community to create new visuals for your Charts tool.

  8. team access control & datasource batch access

    Controlling access for 40 team members & ~200data sources is super cumbersome and we actually stopped giving new coworkers access because it's so much work.

    I'd love if i could just give team level read access to all charts & datasources needed within the chart.

  9. Chart element counts

    Charts should allow us to access the number of categories in a chart (e.g. number of bars, number of series/legend items). In this way we will have information to further customize the rendering, on the fly, via SDK if need be.

  10. Responsive charts

    One of the selling points for Qlik is the ability to have charts that resize depending on the screen size. I struggle a bit when resizing the screen and the charts don't resize. They should be responsive and adapt to the screen size!

  11. Ability to toggle Dark Theme

    Most dashboards from different services offer the ability to be in Dark Mode, which is easier to read and saves loads of energy.

    As a workaround users can use browser extensions to apply a css dark theme.

    Firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/dark-mode-webextension/

    Chrome: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/care-your-eyes/fidmpnedniahpnkeomejhnepmbdamlhl

  12. Search Filter on Text fields

    In Google Datastudio and I am sure in other tools like this you are not limited to randomly picked values for filtering data. We should have the option to Search and ideally be prompted with possible options(autocomplete) when filtering/searching on text fields.

  13. Chart Annotations

    For continuous/discrete line and area charts, I would like to apply annotations to my charts so that I can highlight certain data points of my graph. A use-case for this would be to display targets that need to be achieved for my data or to explain certain events at a time point.

    See attached image for a mockup.

  14. Support Rendering GeoJSON on a Map

    I have GeoJSON in my collection that is storing trip data as GeoJSON LineStrings for each trip and I simply want to render the trips on a map. Basically having Charts just draw the lines for each trip. Nice to have would be defining attributes to name them and color code them. I would expect this to apply to all GeoJSON types available.

  15. Custom Binning Ranges

    Hi Tom (and Team). We would love the ability to bin by custom ranges. We currently can only set a static number, which can lead to some pretty non-standard groupings of data.

    EG: For Age, we'd like to be able to create the following bins: 0-17, 18-25, 26-35, 36-45, etc... Since under 18 is a common age range to group together, the bins we have to used are 0-17, 18-34, 35-52, etc..., which isn't a terribly standard age range to group data by.

  16. Cookies should be set with the 'SameSite' attribute

    Hi guys, Chrome 79 reports an issue with cookies set by the embedded charts. It seems like they are missing the 'SameSite' attribute. If you could bring the cookies up to speed to comply with this apparent new standard, it'd be great.

    Warning message I get in the Chrome console: "A cookie associated with a cross-site resource at <URL> was set without the SameSite attribute. A future release of Chrome will only deliver cookies with cross-site requests if they are set with SameSite=None and Secure. You can review cookies in developer tools under Application>Storage>Cookies and see more details at…

  17. Display row numbers for text charts

    It would nice if there was an option to toggle row numbers for text charts. This would be helpful, for example, when the rank of entries is important.

  18. updating the min value dynamically to expand the chart

    Imagine this scenario: You have a price x data chart with a range between 110.000 and 120.000 for prices.
    But the chart always starts at 0. You ever have to update the minimum range manually to near 110.000 to show data in the graph appropriately. Counterproductive, not?
    So, I suggest creating a feature to updating the min value dynamically to expand the chart and ever occupy the entire space of the cartesian plane, especially in continuous charts.

  19. render all labels in a series

    The bigger the chart/differences in the chart get the harder it get's to point the cursor to display a label. Also if you have multiple y-axis the label is only shown for the one your touching - it would be nice if in discrete charts the label would show the values of all axis.

    tl;dr;
    - label should show for closest data point for easier touching
    - label should contain all values

    that's e.g. how it works with recharts: http://recharts.org/en-US/examples/SimpleLineChart

  20. Add option for a dynamic Chart Title

    It would be useful if I could set the chart title to equal the result of an aggregation on the chart's documents.
