Hey Guys

A month ago in a sunny Sunday I had nothing to do (and I didn't realised that I could go out) so, I decided to create an eclipse plugin to administrate my mongodb databases. After that sunny sunday I didn't worked on it anymore because I didn't had time. Today, I started looking at it again and I thought that it would be better to move it to github[0] and release it under GPL. I did it because I want to keep working on Meclipse but I also want the community to be able to work on it too. I'll give you some more informationa bout Meclipse: 

What does Meclipse do?

* It has a MongoDB View that contains a list of servers (connections). It is possible to add/remove connections. They are saved in a settings file.
* It loads (as TreeView) the list of databases and collections.
* It loads the data found in the collection. To do this, Meclipse opens a new Editor and shows the data loaded (This part needs a lot of work).

TODO:
* Meclipse already shows the connections, databases, collections and data stored in MongoDB so I think that the critical point (where I'm/you're/we're should focus ) is how data is shown in the editor.
* Many other things.

I started it because I use MongoDB, I use eclipse and I don't want to have 100000x10^10 applications opened to do what I need to do so.......

As I said before, feel free to fork it, do pull requests and everything needed to improve Meclipse.

I hope you like it and find it useful.
Thanks
Flavio

Hi  FlaPer87 (I don't know wt is your real name :))

We have to develop a " Mongo Database Visualizer for Eclipse " as our university project. So I found your MEclipse plugin and it is very useful for us to develop our tool. We like to contribute your project and like to enhance it features. That I want to know, is there any way to that I can contact you..? I have few questions to ask from you.I think it won't be  problem to you.We really appreciate your effort that you got to develop mEclipse. 

Thanks and Regards
