MongoBooster 4.1 Released! Visual Query Builder and Scripts History Search

Today, we're happy to announce the release of MongoBooster 4.1. This release includes visual query builder, scripts history search and a few minor updates.

Visual Query Builder

MongoBooster 4.1 comes with visual query builder. The two-way query builder could help you construct and display complex MongoDB find statements even without the knowledge of the MongoDB shell commands syntax.

To use query builder:

  1. Use the Query Builder button in the editor toolbar.
  2. Right-click the collection node in the connection tree, execute "Show Query Builder..."
  3. Popup Command Palette (Ctrl-Shift-P), enter "Query Builder"

Scripts History Search

This release provides a more friendly scripts history search. I strongly believe, this might be your most frequently used feature of history. When you’ve already executed a very long shell script, you can simply search history using one or a few keywords and re-execute the same command without having to type it fully. Press Ctrl-F7 and type the keyword. In default, MongoBooster will filter history that contains the current database and collection.

  • Tip: to match multiple words, please enter more keywords into the search box with + sign.

Scripts History Search

Minor Enhancement

Maximizing and Restoring Script Editor and Output Panel

Editor/Ouput panel can be maximized (other panel is minimized at the same time) to provide more space for editing your script or seeing the result. When panel is maximized, you can simply restore its original size. To maximize or restore panel, simply use the maximize/restore button in the toolbar or press Ctrl-0 | Ctrl-9.

Maximize/Restore Editor and Output Panel

improved cursor.select() method

The cursor.select(arg: string|Object): ICursor method specifies which document fields to include or exclude. In addition to separating the field lists using spaces, the new version 4.1 also allows you to separate the fields using commas. The advantage is that the comma in the field list can popup Field Auto-complete list.
