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
See: http://nosql.mypopescu.com/post/334469038/a-couple-of-nice-gui-tools-for-mongodb Hopefully it'll be updated frequently when new tools are available!
EDIT:
Better overview: http://www.mongodb.org/display/DOCS/Admin+UIs
I just tried MongoVUE and it works like a charm! Check it out: http://www.mongovue.com/
I using Robomongo, in version 0.8.3 implemented multiply inserting documents, for more details https://github.com/paralect/robomongo/issues/173. Robomongo also have builtin mongodb-shell may be usefully for your purposes.
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!
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
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.
I'm using MongoDB Compass. You can download the community edition by entering valid information.
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.
