How can I browse or query live MongoDB data?

I've googled around but couldn't find a working MongoDB viewer or data browser.

An ideal (for my needs) tool would be a web based viewer with dead simple features (browsing and doing queries).

Forest Admin is an admin panel tool that supports MangoDB (using the microservice architecture). It uses a schema flattener.

"RoboMongo" is easy to use and cross platform, using on centos 6.2 but no option for data import/export which can be found in "umongo" but not easy to use as RoboMongo.

genghisapp is what you want.

It is a web-based GUI that is clean, light-weight, straight-forward, offers keyboard shortcuts, and works awesomely. It also supports GridFS.

Best of all, it's a single script!


search

json editor


To install it

$ gem install genghisapp bson_ext

(bson_ext is optional but will greatly improve the performance of the gui)


To run it (this will automatically open your web browser and navigate to the app as well)

genghisapp

To stop it

genghisapp --kill

To add to the list :)

I just made a simple Mongo browser based on a hierarchical JQueryTreeview and implemented in Sinatra and Ruby.

The reason for another viewer was that I wanted something that was fast and easy (both to use and the code base), that would let me peek at what was going on my MongoDB. Also, I wanted some nice Ajax effects. and could be the base of a more complete browser.

MogoVue is the best option I found so far, it has great features I did not see in other viewers, plus it gives few options to look at the data, as json, tables and hierarchy, which is extremely useful.

Avoid MongoExplorer, it has major issues, which can cause you huge headaches. When viewing records using this tools, it may change fields which are MongoId's to plane string, it does not give any indication on this, just does it when you focus on the id field, this bug cost me lots of time and effort trying to find "what and where in my code i'm doing this silly thing"...

I just released a simple web-based data viewer called Mongs. It isn't a server admin GUI, it's focused on data browsing, which sounds like what you're interested in. Mongs is implemented in Python using the Aspen web framework.

While the built in Http Interface of MongoDB isn't exactly what you are asking for, but it is available and supports a REST interface to do simple queries, etc. This is built-in to the mongo instance with a default of port 28017.
