Usage

Click to browse.

For now you can query using JSON expressions in the URL, where the {} is above.

You can sort by adding a "sort": [["field", -1]] key/val to the {} in the URL. It will be popped and the rest of the dict will simply be a pymongo query.

To add more servers, create an ~/.aspen/aspen.conf file with content like this, and bounce the server:

[mongs]
servers: localhost you.example.com

Development

Mongs is implemented in Python using the Aspen web framework.
