  1. Self-hosted version of compass

    Since compass frontend is web, it would be great to be able to self host it on a server, to access it directly in browser.

    The idea is to be able to work from devices that can't install electron, like iPadOS, android directly in browser or as PWA.

  2. Remember "Expand all fields" output option between pages

    When viewing documents returned by the aggregation pipeline, selecting the Output option of "Expand all fields" works for the page you are currently viewing, but changing pages means you need to click "Expand all fields" again for each page.

    It would be good if Compass remembered that "Expand all fields" was active, and kept this on for all pages in the results.

  3. Add settings to have query options expanded by default and pick a view

    I never send a query without having to expand this section. It adds a step to every single opertaion, which is tiresome. It save about three lines of space. It would save a lot of time and be less annoying if there was an option to just leave this section open by default. I also alwyas want to display the data as table rows instead of josn or documents. Same deal here, it would be nice not to be forced to use the deafult MongoDB idea here - the views are available already so it would be nice to save…

  4. Aggregation pipelines history for recently used aggregations.

    Aggregation pipelines that have been used recently should also be saved similar to how search queries are stored.

  5. Tab Titles

    The titles of tabs would be a lot more helpful if they displayed the collection it was on. As you can see in the screenshots that are attached, the 2 different tabs have no indication of what collection they are apart of since it gets cut off by the environment name

  7. Add new field to document hidden

    When pressing the + button to add a new field at the very last one when there is the option to show more fields, the inputs for the new one will be hidden under the 'show more'. There is no reason for this, and it could cause a lot of confusion.

  8. Disable the cache feature from Compass

    Every time I click some on some collection, I don't receive the actual data from the database but the cached data. In my opinion, that should not be like that, because that makes me clicking constantly on the refresh button.

    If I click a collection then I want the latest and updated data from the database.

    One example:
    - I open the Compass GUI tool and I click on some collection to see its data.
    - I switch to the application that is doing things and executing actions in the database using their own link.
    - I switch to Compass,…

  10. flatpack

    Hi,

    I have noticed in the documentation that compass .deb is for Ubuntu (is Debian not supported officially?),
    But as Debian (the distro I use), there are thousands of other distros unsupported.
    So I suggest to pack everything with flatpack (or, at least AppImage), since it is a portable format valid for all distros.

    Regards

  11. Optional ID search fallback for ObjectID

    If I search { _id: 'd7hw803h2ihdf3h97298dh3' } and the query returns nothing, I should have the option to re-query but with this instead: { _id: ObjectId('d7hw803h2ihdf3h97298dh3') } and there should be a toggle switch to automatically do this re-querying when there's an empty result.

    There's no reason not to have this, it's very easy to implement, and it would be some nice quality of life.

  12. support atClusterTime in ISO time format

    Currently atClusterTime https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/reference/read-concern-snapshot/#read-concern-and-atclustertime has to be specified in Unix timestamp. It would be great if it could support more human format for example ISO format.

  14. Better Color indicator for different connections

    Currently, we use the colour indicator (chosen during mark favourite) on the title (connection name in the sidebar). That is helpful while working with multiple windows having different DB connections like Stage , Prod or Dev.

    But I still feel that is a very minimal implementation of a color indicator. It will be better if the connection colour indicator is reflected on the border outline of the whole window & sidebar to better distinguish between different DB connection windows.

    I am always afraid if I am mistakenly doing some change on prod DB instead of Stage DB.

    If the colour…

  15. vertical monitor half-snap width

    When I use Windows 11's "Snap to Half Screen" on a vertically-oriented monitor, about 2 inches of the Compass window are cut off-screen on the right, including the red X to close the window.

    Most apps don't have this issue. In fact, of all my apps, Compass is the only one with the problem.

    Also, Compass does not show this problem when I snap to full screen. In that case it shrinks the width properly to fit.

  16. sticky buttons

    Make buttons to edit/copy/clone/delete (top of record) and cancel/update (bottom of the record) "sticky" as they stay on viewport of current record (something like a sidebar ?).

    When there is a lot of nested data, it could be hard to retrieve the buttons.

  18. Middle clicking collection tab along top should close that tab, rather than requiring pressing the x-mark

    Very much like tabs work in browsers

  19. Comment Mode off by default

    I'd like to turn off comment mode in the aggregations view by default. Currently this setting does not persist and comment mode is always enabled by default when you create a new aggregation pipeline.

  20. File structure for connections

    Groups for connections, so that it can be more organised.
    Maybe let us use an image for the group too?
    Look at TablePlus for inspiration 💪
