Mongo client UI plugin for neovim (Work in progress!)

• Node.js - required for the MongoDB driver executor
• (Optional) mongosh - for legacy fallback or external shell access

lazy.nvim

{
  "donus3/mongo.nvim",
  dependencies = {
    "ibhagwan/fzf-lua"
  },
  config = function()
    require("mongo").setup()
  end
}

# explicitly session name
:Mongo <session-name>

# randomly generate a session name (math.random)
:Mongo

• Support mongodb version < 3.6 and >= 3.6
• Using URI connection
• CRUD queries and aggregate
• Tree-Sitter for document updating and deletion
• Intuitive UI

  require("mongo").setup({
  ---default mongo url show on start up
  default_url = "mongodb://localhost:27017",
  ---execute query on collection selected 
  find_on_collection_selected = false,
  ---binary path for node
  node_binary_path = "node",
  ---automatically install node dependencies on load
  auto_install = true,
  ---number of documents in the result
  batch_size = 100,
  ---version of the mongodb node driver
  mongodb_driver_version = "^7.0.0",
})

The plugin now uses a Node.js-based executor with the official MongoDB driver. This removes the dependency on mongosh or mongo binaries.

Automatic Dependency Installation: By default, the plugin will automatically run npm install in its node directory if the MongoDB driver is not found. This behavior can be disabled by setting auto_install = false in the configuration.

Custom Driver Version: You can specify a custom version of the MongoDB Node.js driver using the mongodb_driver_version option. The plugin will automatically ensure the correct version is installed if it deviates from the current installation.

1. In the database/collection buffer, add a new line with no indentation to create a new database.
2. Add another new line indented by one level under that database to create a collection.

Committing the database and collection

1. To commit the database and collection, you must insert at least one document:
2. Move your cursor to the collection line.
3. Open the query buffer. 4.Insert a document. 5.Press Enter to submit it.

Once a document is inserted, the database and collection will be committed.

In the query buffer, you can only execute queries in range by surrounding the query with begin and end scope declaration.

// first scope
begin

// if the cursor on this line, Enter key press won't execute the second scope
db.collection.find({ key: 'bar' }) 

end

// second scope
begin

db.collection.find({ key: 'foo' })

end

If there is no begin and end scope, the whole query will be executed.
