  1. add option for skipping a version update

    On MacOS (ARM), add an option for "skip this version update".

    Not sure, if this issue persists in other builds as well.

    Right now, everytime compass is launched it presents an annoying popup asking for update, and the only options are install, or ask me later. If you select ask me later, it shows the popup again on next start. What is needed is an option for "Don't ask me again for this version". This is kind of a standard feature in most products.

    Thanks.

  2. Please bring back the previous dark theme (before 1.38.0)

    I updated Compass to 1.38.0 (stable) on Windows. The new dark theme is too high contrast for me and I would like to switch back to the previous dark theme. Unfortunately the themes available in this version are "Light Theme" and "Dark Theme (preview)". At this point I would rather use the Light Theme than use this modern dark theme. Please bring back the previous dark theme in addition to the modern dark theme, or give us a way to customize the theme. Thank you.

  3. refresh

    I would like to propose new functionality to auto-refresh a collection in MongoDB Compass. For example, if I am waiting for a document to update, today I have to click refresh repetitively until the document has updated. I would like to set auto-refresh with a filter in place to be able to watch the collection as documents are updating, instead of having to click the refresh button every ~5 seconds. 

    Steps to follow:
    - Log into MongoDB
    - Open to view a collection 
    - Filter by some criteria, and click Find 
    - Click Refresh icon to reload the documents in…

  4. Expand all in JSON view should be brought back

    When in JSON view, we can previously expand all properties inside a document node by using CTRL+LEFT CLICK (or ALT+LEFT CLICK, i've forgotten).

    This feature was removed within the last year.

  6. add refresh button in the collection tab

    when you click on a collection it open a tab right ? what if you want to refresh it
    let's say you are in development stage and you want to see what's being stored and all
    my idea is to add hot key like CTRL R or a refresh button it will be very usefull

  7. Do not load collection data by default (new setting)

    When selecting a collection, Compass currently loads data for that collection. I would like there to be a setting that says that no data is loaded until I click Find.

    Why?
    - because some default data loading takes a looong time (>30s) and clicking Stop doesn't give the user back control (fixing this might be another way to resolve this issue)
    - almost always the data loaded by default is not relevant to my task
    - almost always I want to enter a specific query first and then hit search
    - in the rare cases where I just want to…

  9. saved queries with date difference

    When saving a query that was performed wit ha relative time
    ( e.g.,
    {$gt:new Date(Date.now() - 246060 * 1000)}}
    )
    Save it (to history and to favorites) with the relative expression. Currently, the expression is first calculated to an actual date and only than is it saved (so the queries are saved with actual date and are less useful)

  11. AWS IAM in Compass is MFA protected & uses shortly expiring tokens

    AWS IAM auth in Compass should be a password/token-copypaste-less, MFA-protected experience that uses shortly-expiring tokens, invisibly to the user. Said differently, selecting AWS IAM creds should prompt me with an { AWS config, MFA challenge } form/flow, and not an {{{ accessKeyId, secretAccessKey, sessionToken }}} form as it does today.

  12. Missing charts features

    The charts inside mongodb are quiet nice but lacks some basic features to be able to setup a environment to create, test and deploy charts from tests to production. Also it is not possible to proper support localization.

    It is not possible to develop charts to allow proper development, testing and deploy.
    Those features are a must to really work in a proper way:

    Import/Export:

    Severity: HIGH

    • The current export does not include the charts view. It should contain the charts view (including its aggregation pipeline)
    • Import should then allow create/override the charts view

    Localization:

    Severity: HIGH

    • Allow define locales…

  14. QoL: Rename the Windows shortcut from MongoDBCompass to MongoDB Compass

    I often search Compass (without MongoDB) on Windows Search and it does not show up because its written as MongoDBCompass instead of MongoDB Compass.
    It would be a nice QoL improvement.

  15. Allow changing font in document output

    Current hardcoded choice of fonts: "Source Code Pro", Menlo, monospace doesn't suit me. They first two aren't installed on my computer, so the result is unreadable output using the default "Courier New" font. I want to be able to set my own font family and font size for document output.

  18. 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.

  19. 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.

  20. 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'
