v1.14.1 Released

Mingo is back with a new release packed with 42 improvements, fixes and goodies.

  • Blank Tab - Show last used collections from each connection (in project) by colour in columns, last 10, for example
  • Side menu Finder button / link added
  • Documents - on deep objects, “expand recursively” would be great
  • Documents - Add column - add filter in context menu
  • Documents - Truncate collection - same confirm modal as for Drop collection
  • Documents - “Load entire documents” (in case of projection set) should go to default saved query for collection
  • Documents - Added “home” icon to go to saved default query. X clears the filter completely now.
  • Documents - expand all fields does not work properly on documents (rename to “Expand recursively”)
  • Documents - List does not update after inserting a new document
  • Documents - Editing documents should understand any of the following: Date(), ISODate() even without “new”
  • Documents - CMD+click (or CTRL+click) on field value filters the documents by that field / value.
  • Collections List - Duplicate Collection can be done faster if the copy is in the same database as the original using aggregation stage $out
  • Collections List - Dropping multiple collections does not work
  • Collections List - Dropping multiple confirm box shows wrong collection names
  • Collections List - Sizes in bytes are weird
  • Custom Actions - All collections are now accessible in the custom actions
  • Data Relations - Ability to exclude collections from data relations completely
  • NodeShell - When contains aggregation $out stage, does not ask for confirmation, as it is a write operation
  • Schema Analyzer - Show sample values - shows incorrect values in case of deeply nested arrays
  • Schema Analyzer - Expand button should have a hover effect
  • Schema Analyzer - Projection should be shown by default
  • Workspace selector (sidebar) - Deprecation of “open in new window”
  • Workspace selector (sidebar) - Icon shows image if available in list
  • Manage connections - Remove “open connection” button - useless
  • Manage connections - Drag-and-drop sorting
  • Finder (Blank tab) - shows recent collections when used in a project (not regular connection)
  • Issue: https://github.com/mingo-app/mingo/issues/639: Document preview issue
  • Issue: https://github.com/mingo-app/mingo/issues/637: Expanding a sample result document in an aggregation is unpleasant when a field is large
  • Issue: https://github.com/mingo-app/mingo/issues/636: "Analyzing data relations" covers up import button
  • Issue: https://github.com/mingo-app/mingo/issues/632: Typo of "Explain Filter"
  • Issue: https://github.com/mingo-app/mingo/issues/630: Showing a dummy date instead of real value!
  • Issue: https://github.com/mingo-app/mingo/issues/629: Incorrect binary data representation
  • Issue: https://github.com/mingo-app/mingo/issues/626: Custom actions doesn't work
  • Issue: https://github.com/mingo-app/mingo/issues/624: Aggregation pipeline with date comparison using extended JSON does not work
  • Issue: https://github.com/mingo-app/mingo/issues/621: [FR] Show execution time in minutes instead of seconds
  • Issue: https://github.com/mingo-app/mingo/issues/620: Mingo asks for password to my database each time I restart
  • Issue: https://github.com/mingo-app/mingo/issues/618: Not possible to create new relations
  • Issue: https://github.com/mingo-app/mingo/issues/612: Invalid Selector: TypeError: Class constructor ObjectId cannot be invoked without 'new'
  • Issue: https://github.com/mingo-app/mingo/issues/572: [FR] Convert timestamp to readable format
  • Issue: https://github.com/mingo-app/mingo/issues/645: [FR] prevent firing empty aggregation when "Aggregator" tab is clicked
