100.4.1 Changelog

Released 2021-07-23

This patch fixes a bug (:issue:` TOOLS-2931`) that was introduced in version 100.4.0 which causes mongodump to skip any document that contains an empty field name (e.g. { "": "foo" }).

100.0.1 Changelog

This release was a test of our new release infrastructure and contains no changes from 100.0.0.

Task

  • TOOLS-2493 Cut tools 100.0.0 and 100.0.1 GA releases

100.0.0 Changelog

This is the first separate release of the Database Tools from the Server. We decided to move to a separate release so we can ship new features and bugfixes more frequently. The new separate release version starts from 100.0.0 to make it clear the versioning is separate from the Server. You can read more about this on the MongoDB blog.

This release contains bugfixes, some new command-line options, and quality of life improvements. A full list can be found below, but here are some highlights:

  • There are no longer restrictions on using --uri with other connection options such as --port and --password as long as the URI and the explicit option don't provide conflicting information. Connection strings can now be specified as a positional argument without the --uri option.

  • The new --useArrayIndexFields flag for mongoimport interprets natural numbers in fields as array indexes when importing csv or tsv files.

  • The new --convertLegacyIndexes flag for mongorestore removes any invalid index options specified in the corresponding mongodump output, and rewrites any legacy index key values to use valid values.

  • A new delete mode for mongoimport. With --mode delete, mongoimport deletes existing documents in the database that match a document in the import file.
