Databases

Manage databases in Mingo with write-lock protection, collection management, and database operations.

Database Collections

The Database view shows all collections in a database with their statistics and provides database-level operations.

Write-Lock

Write-Lock prevents unintended changes on documents of a locked database. Databases are locked by default.

You can unlock a database via the database context menu. When attempting a write action on a locked database, Mingo prompts you to confirm whether to unlock for 10 minutes or permanently.

This is a safety feature to prevent accidental modifications on production databases.

Collections List

The database view displays an alphabetical listing of all collections with basic statistics including document count and size.

Right-clicking rows enables collection-level actions like opening, dumping, renaming, or dropping. A Create new collection button allows adding new collections.

Creating a Database

New databases are created via the Create Database button in the sidebar. You must have appropriate MongoDB privileges to create databases within a connection.

Refreshing a Database

Manually refresh database information via the right-click context menu (Refresh), though Mingo performs automatic background updates.

Dropping a Database

Drop an entire database through the context menu. Confirmation is required before the operation proceeds. This action is irreversible.
