Friends We're developing a new bbb management dashboard.
  What do I need to connect a new dashboard to the mongodb database?
And that "connection string"  for "mongoose" or "mongodb nodejs driver"
How to implement it?

Same connection you used to connect at command line if your on the same server.   If you want external access from another server,  you need to have mongo listen on external port as well, and make sure your firewall only allows your ip address to connect. Look at mongo documentaion.

Also you cant just change items in meteor db, unless you understand implications as these changes propagate to all the end user clients.

Bijan,

I'm not really sure what you're trying to accomplish, but I really wouldn't mess with Mongo manually. I'm not sure that you understand what the data in Mongo actually is. That data is just a clone of the actual meeting state and modifying the Mongo data directly will have unintended side-effects and won't change everything. If you're trying to insert messages of your own then you should be sending them to akka-apps and then have akka-apps send them to the clients.
