  1. Recognize $HOME/.ssh/config file in SSH bastion / jump box

    Configured hostnames are not read from the file causing the user to have to re-input the same jumpbox information per connection.

    The work around is to define jumpbox destinations on the user's /etc/hosts file but preference is to have Compass respect the default SSH config file.

  2. export sorted data

    When clicking export collection button, the sort option specified should be copied to "Export query with filters"

    Examples:

    db.holidays.find (
    {Date: {eq: '2022-04-08'}
    ).sort ({System : 1})

    or even make this part editable, so we can add sort option

  3. Mongo to recognize arrays during import

    Mongo is unable to recognize arrays, even from it's own exported documents that are manually formatted as arrays. The options available are not compatible with complicated datasets with more than one column that contain arrays. This should be standard.

  4. SSH private key - Ask for passphrase each time

    I would like to be able to enter the SSH private key passphrase every time I connect to the DB like in NoSQLBooster or Robo 3T.

  5. Enable toggling for boolean properties

    The annoying thing for me is my web applications are heaviley dependant on Database View content.

    in MongoDB Compass it quickly becomes a time waste to manually click a boolean property and change "false" to "true".

    Please add a small toggle box button next to Boolean values.

    Thanks, Carl.

  6. CTRL+F in results

    Implement a CTRF+F function to allow "text search" in results page (like in a Browser)

    example : In a collection, I use "Filter" field to search document and compass returns 15 documents. I hit CTRL+F and I can search a field name or a value and navigate between.

  7. Possibility to set variables used in pipeline stages

    Hi !
    It would be really handfull to have the possibility to use variables in the pipeline stages:

    var userId = ObjectId("5f61dfadc1e8960001700da8'")
    {
    $match : {user.id : userId}
    }

    for complex queries, it would avoid having to modify the id at each stages.
    Thanks !

  8. New query from text

    It would great to have a feature that allows importing a query from text in compass similar to the aggregation pipeline from text feature. Currently if someone has a long multiline find query which includes filter, project, sort methods then the user needs to copy each of the query segments separately and paste them into designated lines in the expanded query options view.
    Importing queries from text would improve support team's efficiency that utilise the compass when trying to analyse application queries manually.

  9. aggregation pipeline verification before deleting

    When opening a saved pipeline - the "open" button is adjacent to the bin (cancel) button and clicking on the bin deletes the pipeline without a chance to regret.

  11. Make it easier to search by _id

    More then half of my queries in Compass is searching by id. Each time I have to add both curly brackets, then type 'id:' then 'Obj', select ObjectId from autocomplete and paste id.
    I propose to add '    id' field in OPTIONS, where I could just paste _id string to fire mongoose-like 'findById'

  12. Store aggregation pipeline export language

    Each time you start a new aggregation, the export language is always "Python 3"., so if you're using different language, you have to set the wanted language each and every time you change the active collection or open a new tab...

    The default selected language could be:
    - the last used language (easier but still efficient)
    - the last used language for this connection
    - the last used language for this collection
    - a language configured as "preferred language" when adding a connection as favorite
    - a language configured as "preferred language" at the app level...

  13. Allow for safe hyperlinking of URIs in documents

    If a document contains a well-formatted (and sanitised) URI, then hovering over it should display a preview of the resource it links to (perhaps an image in s3) or the option to click through to it using the OS standard browser.

  15. restrict export access

    Compass currently allow any user to export data to his local file system, I think it's necessary to add restrictions so that the admin user can specify which user can or can not export data

  16. I would like $match expression to not evaluate 15*24*60*60*1000 expression with the date, instead use the literal expression

    When translating the following aggregation code, Compass evaluates the expression with the date. I would like to have a feature where it translates the literal expression to the available language.

    Example of aggregation code:
    "date": {$gte: new Date((new Date().getTime() - (15 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000)))}

  17. Keyboard shortcut to change DB/Collection

    It would be nice to have a Cmd/Ctrl + P or Cmd/Ctrl + K shortcut like in VS Code or Slack to quickly switch to a different collection or database without having to click around as much.

  18. Hover over object ID should display OID date

    People are migrating away from a "created at" date because it's stored in the OID. However, there's currently no way to view that. Most other tools allow you to see it when you hover over it.

  19. Take too much time preloading database statistics

    As you can see, My MongoDB instance has over 10K databases and over 400K collections, Every time I connect to it with Compass, I have to wait for more than one minute before Compass is ready to use. This 'collecting information process' is unnecessary because I don't care how many collections are there, all I want is jump into one of these databases and start my work.

    So I would be appreciated if there is an option to skip this 'preloading' process.

  20. Let detach mongoh terminal/console

    In case we have two monitors, I think is valuable detach the mongoh terminal/console in one explicit window to move it to other monitor. Of course, the option to apply the inverse should be available too.

    Thanks for your understanding.
