New in Robo 3T 1.0.0-RC1 (Mar 21, 2017)

  • Released on 1 Feb, 2017
  • Major Features:
  • Replica set support.
  • New operation logging for almost all operations.
  • Major Improvements:
  • Improved error handling (no double error windows) for almost all operations.
  • New features:
  • Replica set support.
  • New 'Attributes' column in connections list window showing connection properties such as 'Replica Set', 'SSL' and 'SSH'.
  • New operation logging for almost all operations.
  • Improvements:
  • Improved error handling (no double error windows) for all fail and success conditions for the following operations:
  • . Create, Drop Database
  • . Create, Edit User
  • . Create, Drop, Duplicate, Rename Collection
  • . Insert Document
  • . Remove document, Delete document, Remove all documents (triggered both from explorer and from result widget)
  • . Refresh Users
  • . Refresh Functions
  • . Refresh Collections
  • . Connection establish & refresh server fail and success cases.
  • Windows size is saved and restored for Edit, View and Insert Document dialogs.
  • Connections are automatically imported from the latest Robomongo version.
  • Better error reporting/handling and logging have been added for the operations below:
  • . Create, Drop Function
  • . Drop User
  • More informative and adjusted log level prefix strings haven added for log window. (Error, Warn, Info etc..).
  • After a new connection is created, now the focus goes to the newly created connection (end of list) instead of the beginning of connections list. And when Robomongo is opened, the focus goes to the end of the connection list instead of beginning.
  • Error messages added and error handling for 'remove document', 'remove all documents' operations triggered explorer and single or multi 'delete document' from results window have been re-implemented and improved.
  • Relevant errors are shown for the following cases now:
  • . Drop attempt of non-existing collection.
  • . Duplicating a collection with a collection name which already exists finishes silently.
  • Fixes:
  • Fix for the problem where the connections list comes empty if the Robomongo config file or it's directory do not exist.
  • Fix for the problem where 'in-progress bar' widget was not centered on main window for "Update Documents/Remove Documents" operations.
  • Fix for two problems where the operations 'insert or update documents' in one tab was causing auto reloading of other unrelated tabs and also multiple error windows to popup.
  • Fix for the problem where the operations 'remove document', 'remove all documents' triggered explorer and single or multi 'delete document' from results window were causing auto reloading of other unrelated tabs.

New in Robo 3T 0.9.0 (Oct 27, 2016)

  • Full Size Editor with Dockable Output Window:
  • With this new feature, Robomongo can be used with maximized/full size query editor with dockable/floating output window. This feature is very useful especially when you have long scripts or you just want to see output window in your second monitor.
  • We have also implemented some advanced behaviors where output windows can be docked/undocked for each query tab. And another implementation is smart connection between query editor tabs and output windows where selecting a tab or an output window activates/brings the related tab or output window into front which feels great when you have multiple tabs/output windows.
  • Copy Name and Copy Path:
  • With this new feature, we have added two context menu "Copy Name" and "Copy Path". When "Copy Name" is selected, the name field of the object is copied into clipboard and when "Copy Path" is selected, the JSON path of the object is copied into clipboard.
  • Current Operations and Kill Operation:
  • We have added two menu items into database context menu. With this feature, it is possible to right click on a database and select "Current Operations" to see information about in-progress operations for that database instance or select "Kill Operation" to terminate an operation specified by the operation ID (which can retrieved from result of "Current Operations").
  • Minimize to Tray Icon:
  • This new feature is implemented for Windows and it adds the ability to minimize to tray icon and related setting to enable/disable it. This option comes disabled by default.
  • Other Enhancements:
  • Cloud platforms Compose, mLab and Amazon EC2 were tested and added as supported platforms.
  • Maximize/Restore result button behavior and icon have been improved.
  • For better code quality and code reviews, Robomongo Code Quality and Robomongo Code Review pages have been created.
