Meteor backend admin interface: are there any packages that make this easy, a la Django?

I'm working with Meteor (as a newbie) and have made a small app for a site. The data structure, in JSON, is somewhat complex — I load it on the server startup.js into MongoDB if it's not loaded. I'd like to implement an admin backend interface to the site — to manipulate the database directly — so that in future I could offer this to clients. I've done some very basic work in Django and liked the way the backend came easily.

I was wondering whether any packages exist for easy backend admin interface implementation for Meteor, or whether one has to 'roll ones own'. I'd need to be able to write and change and delete elements of the JSON data structure, and if possible upload images (I know there are packages for image uploading).

Or is this something that would be best accomplished through and only through some sort of MongoDB tool (rather less friendly for clients)?

I think what you are looking for is Houston. From the readme:

Houston is a zero-config Meteor Admin, modeled after Django Admin, intended as a simple way for developers to give end-users (or themselves) an easy way to view and manipulate their app's data.
