# MongoUI
|
|
|
|
MongoUI (mongoui) is a web browser admin interface for MongoDB. Currently a standalone tool (run as an app locally or on your server); middleware later.
|
|
|
|
Here's a one and a half minute **video** that shows filtering, editing, and switching collections:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
## Branches
|
|
|
|
* Master — major releases, main branch
|
|
* Develop — current development branch (make your pull requests here)
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Why
|
|
|
|
Tired of typing `db.users.findOne({_id:ObjectId(...)})` just to look up data structure. Even more typing to modify the data. Can't find Node.js implementaton (not true any more, there is [exprss-mongo](https://github.com/andzdroid/mongo-express)).
|
|
|
|
|
|
## How to Use
|
|
|
|
### Installation
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone git@github.com:azat-co/mongoui
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone https://github.com/azat-co/mongoui.git
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
curl -O https://github.com/azat-co/mongoui/archive/master.zip
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
wget https://github.com/azat-co/mongoui/archive/master.zip
|
|
unzip master.zip
|
|
cd mongoui-master
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
mkdir node_modules
|
|
npm install mongoui
|
|
cd node_modules/mongoui
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Configs
|
|
|
|
Copy `config_default.json` file as `config.json`:
|
|
|
|
$ cp config_default.json config.json
|
|
|
|
Modify as needed (remote databases should work just fine!).
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Running the app
|
|
|
|
Assuming that MongoDB is running (`$ mongod`), to start the server run:
|
|
|
|
$ node .
|
|
|
|
or:
|
|
|
|
$ node index.js
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ node index
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Using
|
|
|
|
Open <http://localhost:1313/> in your favorite browser. If you use Chrome, there is a nice extension for viewing raw json: Chrome extension.
|
|
|
|
Optional: Download and install [JSONView Chrome extension](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/jsonview/chklaanhfefbnpoihckbnefhakgolnmc) to view JSON in a human readable format.

## TODO
|
|
|
|
The list is in the GitHub Issues.
|
|
|
|
## Contributing
|
|
|
|
|
|
Pull requests are always welcome as long as an accompanying test case is
|
|
associated.
|
|
|
|
This project is configured to use [git
|
|
flow](https://github.com/nvie/gitflow/) and the following conventions
|
|
are used:
|
|
|
|
* ``develop`` - represents current active development and can possibly be
|
|
unstable.
|
|
|
|
* ``master`` - pristine copy of repository, represents the currently
|
|
stable release found in the npm index.
|
|
|
|
* ``feature/**`` - represents a new feature being worked on
|
|
|
|
If you wish to contribute, the only requirement is to:
|
|
|
|
- branch a new feature branch from develop (if you're working on an
|
|
issue, prefix it with the issue number)
|
|
- make the changes, with accompanying test cases
|
|
- issue a pull request against develop branch
|
|
|
|
Although I use git flow and prefix feature branches with "feature/" I
|
|
don't require this for pull requests... all I care is that the feature
|
|
branch name makes sense.
|
|
|
|
Pulls requests against master or pull requests branched from master will
|
|
be rejected.
|
|
|
|
#### Examples
|
|
|
|
Examples of good branch names:
|
|
|
|
* 12-amd-support
|
|
* feature/12-amd-support
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Running Tests
|
|
|
|
In order to run the tests which are in `test` folder, you will need:
|
|
|
|
* Node.js
|
|
* NPM
|
|
|
|
With those installed, running `npm install` and ''npm test'' will run the tests.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Non-node.js alternatives
|
|
|
|
* Mac OS X app: [MongoHub](http://mongohub.todayclose.com/)
|
|
* .NET based app: MongoVUE](http://www.mongovue.com/)
