One thing I don't like about the MongoDB dashboard is that if I'm already logged in and go to Tools, I still have to use commands to export data. Why can't I just press a button in their UI and export the data however I want? I'm already logged in. This might seem trivial but it would be faster. Especially if you're working with someone semi-technical and who has only a basic understand of looking through documents, you don't want to have to walk them through different commands and using the CLI.
- Alex-Potsides 6y agoI never tried exporting data using the Dashboard (always used mongo dump). > One thing I don't like about the MongoDB dashboard is that if I'm already logged in and go to Tools, I still have to use commands to export data. Man, that sucks. Why would they do that? Anyways, we will definitely have an export button for AvionDB.
- davidajackson 6y agoYeah, I would say UI + analytics/filtering for documents built into the dashboard are things that I wish existed. I know there's are lots of third party tools but a lot of times in the early stages of projects I feel those aren't yet a priority.
- Alex-Potsides 6y agoWe would love to build a Dashboard soon. It's actually in our Roadmap. https://github.com/dappkit/aviondb/issues/8 https://github.com/dappkit/aviondb/issues/8 It would be great if you could join our Discord channel: https://discord.gg/88YpNuQ https://discord.gg/88YpNuQ I would love to have your feedback on our Dashboard+what features that you may want. I can get that up in a few days.
- redwood 6y agoCan you clarify what you mean by the Dashboard? Are you talking about a specific GUI util?
