Mingo

Navigation

Navigate Mingo using workspaces, the sidebar, tabs, context menus, and the Finder.

Workspaces

Mingo supports multiple windows at a time — a workspace. Each connection and project has its own workspace. Switch between workspaces using the selector at the top of the sidebar.

The sidebar contains:

  • Workspace selector for switching connections and projects
  • Databases and Collections displayed as a tree view
  • Tools for accessing additional functionality

The sidebar displays databases and their collections hierarchically. Right-clicking databases or collections reveals context menus. Clicking a collection opens a new tab. Hovering over a collection shows basic statistics.

Pinning Collections

When working with many collections, you can pin favorites for quick access. Pinned items remain visible even when the parent database is collapsed.

Tabs

Tabs function like browser tabs with support for:

  • Rearrangement via drag-and-drop or keyboard shortcuts
  • Closing and reopening recently closed tabs
  • Selective closure of specific tabs

Current tab types include:

  • Database — database overview and management
  • Collection — collection browsing and operations
  • Compare/Sync — comparing and synchronizing data

Each tab operates independently, allowing multitasking and background operations.

Tab Views

Collection tabs separate functionality into views: Documents, Aggregator, Indexes, Export, and more.

Context Menu

Right-clicking items such as databases, collections, documents, and fields reveals relevant options. This keeps the UI clean while making all features accessible.

Finder

The Finder opens when creating new tabs (CMD+T). It enables rapid collection and database searching by name with arrow key navigation and ObjectID quick-find functionality.
