MongoDB for VS Code
MongoDB for VS Code lets you easily work with MongoDB directly from your VS Code environment. Using the MongoDB extension, you can:
- Connect to a MongoDB instance or cluster
- Navigate your databases and collections
- Prototype queries and aggregations
You can install the MongoDB extension from inside of VS Code via the VS Code Extension Marketplace. Help us improve the MongoDB for VS Code by posting your ideas and suggestions for improvements.

Add ability to go from Extended JSON to JS and vice-versa.
It would be nice to have a way to take an expression in EJSON and convert it to "plain" JS.
The motivativation is that sometimes we get large blocks of aggregation pipelines already in EJSON, but want to express them as JS code without EJSON, or vice-versa.
A command / shortcut / refactor method to highlight some text that is in format A and convert to format B would be nice.
{x: {$ne: {"$objectid": "AAAAAAAABBBBBBBBCCCCCCCC"}}} -------------^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ "Convert From EJSON..." {x: {$ne: ObjectId("AAAAAAAABBBBBBBBCCCCCCCC") }}1 vote -
Print Logs As They Happen, Not At End of Script
Hi,
When I add a
printline in mongosh, that line is executed as it is reached. For example, if I add it within a loop, it prints for every iteration in a loop. However, in a VS Code Playground, it only prints when the Playground has finished executing.I'd like to request that the VS Code extension allows for
printtroubleshooting anywhere within a Playground as it is executed, not just at the end.3 votes -
Create/Edit App Services Functions from VS Code
Once connected to an Atlas database, if there are applications in App Services, the ability to select an application and create or edit Functions inside the MongoDB for VS Code extension would be really cool!

Display the time it took for queries
Similar to any other MongoDB tool, I would like to know how much it took me to run the specific query/count and so on.
It would be nice to also have a timer that indicate how much time it been running for (when the query taking too much time).4 votes -

ability to run to a specified aggregation stage and see output
Essentially the same as https://mongoplayground.net/
if you add multiple aggregation stages you can pick which one you want to run up to, and inspect the output.
This makes it dramatically easier to tweak larger pipelines without having to comment further stages out.

Query delimiter lines in playgrounds
Much like the REST Client extension allows you to add delimiters (in their case three or more #) between requests, it would be good if this extension offered something similar so that you can easily run individual queries or sets of queries in files containing multiple. So my playground looked something like below, clicking the play button when the mouse cursor is above the delimiter executes the first statement and when below the second.

It would be great if the VSCode Extension automatically generated boilerplate code (JS, Java, Python, C#, Go) based on the file type.

please add connection and database coloring which applies to explore list, opened tabs and playground files. Intellij and Navicat both support this feature which prevents any confusion about test and deployment server.

Reuse db connection
It's much slower than other mongodb clients like Robo 3t every time I run a query, it seems that it create a new connection to the database and then executes the query. Is there any way to keep and reuse an existed connection so that to speed up the query executions?

Intellisense for playground code
Hovering over getCollection and other supported methods doesn't show any intellisense. This would save us time from having to go to the docs and looking that method up. Also the sort method which I think its a normal JavaScript method doesn't show intellisense inside playground so please add some intellisense.

Better Failed to Connect Error Message
Currently, I get Failed to connect: connection <monitor> to X.Y.Z.W:27017 closed. It would be helpful to tell the user why that is or give a hint as to why the problem occurred. I have to keep it in the back of my mind that most of the time the issue is because my IP changed and my atlas doesn't have my ip whitelisted.
