  1. Text based pipeline mode

    I know you can import the pipeline from a language but I want to completely disable GUI pipeline builder and just have a text editor. The UI is too slow and clunky, just give me a text editor to directly edit and run an aggregate.

  2. There must be an option to create text indexes from MongoDB compass GUI.

    In MDB compass GUI, there is no option available for creating a text index on a collection. It must be introduced so that one can create all types of indexes from GUI itself.

  3. Compass support more languages for "Export Query To Language"

    https://twitter.com/MongoDB/status/1267452775421685760

    Currently it only supports 4 languages, Java, Node, C# and Python3. I would love to see in more languages, especially Go

    This is very useful when used with aggregation pipeline builder. Productivity x100

  6. Don't query entire collection on connection

    In large collections, there is no need to immediately query the entire collection. Either change this to query only the first 20 entries by default, or stop querying one connection. This would improve the connection experience greatly.

    With Compass 1.30 we improved the experience by:

    • no longer loading all the db and collection stats when connecting
    • no longer waiting for the document count to load before displaying the first 20 documents and running the count operation asynchronously instead

  8. Ability to disable plugins

    I don't use a bunch of the plugins that ship by default with Compass, and I don't see any way to disable them in the UI. Loading all of them can be quite slow.

    Most of the plugins are necessary for Compass to function correctly and it’s a bit difficult to support enabling and disabling them. However, plugins are now bundled differently and they don’t slow down Compass at startup anymore.

  9. Rename connection

    After cloning a connection, it has the same name with "(copy)" appended. But in my favorites list it is now impossible to differentiate, and there is no way currently to rename a connection.

  11. Indent Collection on Left Panel

    After the layout update in 1.34.1, it is harder to tell what is the parent db and what the collections are. It would be helpful to have the collections indented.

  12. Current hard-coded font puts a lot of strain on the eyes and hard to use

    I just updated Compass to v1.33.0 from 1.23.0 version and immediately got blindsided that you switched font to serif, which is much harder to read, even though the font itself is a bit larger.

    Zooming just a little bit in v1.23.0 makes it very comfortable to work with, but zooming in on serif font in v1.33.0 makes it huge and the whole app is less usable for me.

    After struggling for a bit, I uninstalled v1.33.0 and installed back v1.23.0. So far it works, so I will keep using it for the time being.

    I attached both UI screenshots at…

  13. Add an action to the contextual menu of the view to copy the pipeline to the clipboard.

    Currently, we don't have an easy way to save the aggregation pipeline steps used to create a view. Also, after deleting a collection, the view aggregation steps are no longer visible. We would like an option to allow saving aggregation pipeline steps for this use case.

  14. Allow customization capability to Administrators

    1. Provide option to administrators to freeze the Read Preference dropdown to Secondary to restrict users only to secondary nodes of the cluster.
    2. Freeze maxTimeMS value to a desired value (operations team would decide the value) rather than providing this option to users whether or not to use it and let rogue queries run for long duration on production clusters.

  15. Support creation of all geospatial indexes in Compass

    Geospatial data filtering can be displayed in Compass in Analyze Schema, but the geospatial index to make new maps cannot be made. mongo shell or embedded shell need to be used. Documentation about geospatial capabilities or at least links to the server manual would be nice.

  16. Expose readPreference information in Compass UI

    Compass is capable of using custom Read Preference settings and tags if specified in the connection string. However, in the UI it is nowhere indicated which Read Preference mode is being used.

    As a result, the users have no way to tell if the specified URI options are actually in effect.

    It would be useful to surface this information somewhere.

  17. Inline or popout editor for large text fields

    Sometimes a large amount of textual data is stored in a single field, and often times this needs to edited in development. If there was a way to edit a field in at least a multi-line text area, this would be made much easier.

  18. Remember the expanded state of object when coming back to a tab

    1. Run a query that returns a document with subdocuments.
    2. Click the ">" to expand some of the subdocuments.
    3. Open a new tab
    4. Come back to the previous tab.

    Notice how all expanded subdocuments were closed. This is pretty annoying if you need to, for example, go through array items and run queries in the other tab based on their values.

  19. The Feedback button obfuscates the Delete confirmation button for the last record on the screen

    Add extra space to the bottom of the record view so that I can scroll the last record above the Feedback button to more easily access the Delete button.

  20. Fix garbled column headers when displaying embedded documents

    When expanding an embedded document in table view, column headers are shifted (macOS).
