  1. To be able to show images contained in document fields

    It would be great to see the images when a field contains it.

    In the attached file, would show in place of the binary field "Imagen".

  3. Improve Compass experience for working with lots of Atlas Clusters

    Currently it's quite a lot of work to onboard Atlas Clusters especially if you have a lot. We have 80+. It would be a great if there was an easier way to create Cluster connections within Compass, whether that be an export/import process or you just connect it to Atlas and it works it all out via an API.

    To further support this it would also be great to set username/password details and preferences like secondary at root or group level so that clusters under root or group can inherit those credentials rather than filling in for each connection

  5. Entity Relationship Diagram

    I would appreciate a feature that enables the designer to map entity relationships in similar fashion to SQL entity relationship diagrams (ERD). At present I’m using Datensen’s Meteor Modeler for this purpose. It would be nice to have this capability rolled into Compass.

  6. Add an option to copy a database

    Let's say I need to test something on the production data but I don't want to touch the prod data. It would be cool to have an option to copy the remote DB data to the local DB so I could safely test my queries without affecting prod or UAT DB data

    Simply said it should be like an export database

  7. Add color context to title sections for favorite colors

    We use color context for ssh terminals when connecting to a production vs qa environments. I've noticed you can color context a Favorite. But if you color only the favorite button, it doesn't give you a full view of if your in production or not.

    Suggestions:
    * Add that color to the background of the title area where the collection name, document count, total size is.
    * On the row view section. maybe just a small color icon on the left empty space of each row.

  8. Filter the collection list in the collection screen by the "Filter your data" term

    The "Filter your data" search box on top of the list of dbs/collections allows to filter databases and collections. In databases with a large number of collections this is very useful to have quick access to the colletion(s) of interest without the need to scroll through the whole collection list in the collections screen.

    Unfortunately this filter has no effect on the collections list which ist provided in the collections screen. It would be very useful if this list would also be filtered by the filter term to have the collections of interest side by side with their metrics (Documents,…

  9. Be able to save and restore the tabs complete with their existing queries, projections and sorting settings.

    The description is in the attached graphic. The gist is being able to save the Filter, Projection, Sort, Skip, Limit settings for each tab as a logically grouped set of tabs which I can give a meaningful name to and perhaps stores them on computer as a JSON file and I can reload that json file after connecting to a MongoDB and restore my tabs.

    Also, once you have this functionality, it would be nice since the application itself is written in Javascript to make a Microsoft Visual Studio Code plugin out of Compass as well so I can have…

  10. Copy as "normal" JSON

    Would be nice to have ability to copy data in mongo shell compatible format. NOT like this:
    {"id":{"$oid":"58a1b4496711f017c2be2c86"},"reportedBy": "$oid":"589b5cddb8843f642c09eecd"},"createdAt":{"$date":"2017-02-13T13:27:37.594Z"}}
    But like this:
    ```
    { "    id" : ObjectId("58a1b4496711f017c2be2c86"), "createdAt": ISODate("2017-02-13T13:27:37.594Z")}
    ```

  11. expand text areas

    text areas in documents have a limited size, I would like the possibility to expand them to be able to view the complete text, wrapped between the window width, using vertical scroll bars for the height.

  12. Ability to copy paste an entire pipeline as text and split it into stages of the builder UI

    The pipeline builder is powerful for constructing an aggregation pipeline. However, it would be good to copy an entire pre-written pipeline into the aggregation builder as text and have it syntactically divide the text into the aggregation builder stages UI.

    This will help make pipelines written previously and not saved on Compass easily modifiable over copying each stage manually into the builder UI, which is a tedious process for long pipelines.

  14. Schema analysis should recognize dictionaries

    In a sub-document, the keys may be common across most documents in the collection, or they may contain a set of random values. For example, using hostnames as the keys in the "hosts" sub-document.

    {
    ...
    hosts: {
        server1a: { ... }
        server2a: { ... }
        server3a: { ... }
    }
    } 
    {
    ...
    hosts: {
        server1b: { ... }
        server2b: { ... }
        server3b: { ... }
    }
}

    The schema analysis should recognize the above situation to avoid creating thousands of sub-fields in the schema.

  15. Export Files from GridFS

    A nice reature would be to be able to export stored binary files in GridFS via the Atlas UI. It will allow the users to click an export button on the fs.files collection and would stream out the file using gridfs in the drivers.

  16. Lock order or sort documents in Aggregation Pipeline Builder's preview area

    When we create a pipeline, it'd help if we could check the same documents data in the different stages ( now their preview is from randomly selected documents AFAIK ), so it's inconvenient to inspect one specific documents preview phases through all the stages.
    Possible solutions:
    1) lock the first stage's documents' order and apply it to the following stages (if possible, eg. if the stage is $group, then we can not apply the rule to the next stage)
    2) set a sorting ( if possible ) of documents. But only for the preview.

  19. Aggregation Error Verbosity

    It would be a real boon to have the aggregation pipeline builder report errors with any degree of verbosity. Right now it just says "unknown error ocurred", and I have to move my pipeline down to the shell to get a real error message.
