MongoDb 3.0 GUI Tools

[Danyl Novhorodov]

Hi All,

Just updated my Windows 2008R2 test server to MongoDB 3.0.1 and new WiredTiger engine. Curious that my daily GUI tools like RoboMongo 0.8.5 and MongoVUE 1.6.9 doesn't see collections in db at all. So I can query it only in mongo 3.0.1 command shell which is extremely unfriendly.

Anyone knows why so and probably can suggest working tools ?

Hi Danyl,

MongoDB 3.0 introduced some new features including a new default authentication method (SCRAM-SHA-1) and a new listCollections command for pluggable storage engines like WiredTiger.

For full compatibility with MongoDB 3.0, older tools and drivers need to be updated. Many already have been, but a few (such as MongoVUE and Robomongo still have updates in progress).

You can find a community-maintained list of tools in the GUI category on: http://mongodb-tools.com. There should be an update soon allowing you to filter tools by compatibility (MongoDB version in addition to the O/S Platform).

If your favourite tool hasn't been updated yet, I would check with the vendor or project and see if they are working on an update. The complexity of the update depends on the tool; in some cases they may just be able to drop in 3.0-compatible driver but others may have more effort involved.

Regards,

Stephen

Thanx Stephen,

Good to know. If you know some tools for Windows which supports MongoDB 3.0 please share it here.

BTW. After migration from 2.6 and data conversion to new engine some queries dropped in speed. Same queries, same indexes, same hardware configuration. And in general I can't see any significant performance difference. Will dig in perf. counters and queries to make final comparison, but visually performance ~ equal

My favorite is http://3t.io/mongochef/

Thanks Sebastian that is a great tool but it is not free.  Many people are requesting a free tool that supports mongod 3.0 and ssl. Looking at the free Robomongo it might be months before they have 3.0 support.

I would be cool if all mongodb gui vendors gave discounts to open source project developers who are building software to save lives:

Thanks!

Hi Daniel,

MongoChef is free for non-commercial use. You can select the license model when starting the software for the first time. The non-commercial license doesn't impose any limitations in terms of software features (e.g. it supports MongoDB 3.0 and SSL).

Cheers,
