How to clear console in MongoDB

People also ask

How do I clear my console output?

Press Ctrl+L twice and you get blank!


Judging by Jira they have done it: You need to write cls in the shell.

You can also use a hotkey: CTRL + L.

In macOS: Command + K.

Check more hotkeys for the shell here.


If you are using MongoDB 2.0 or higher, the mongo shell supports both:

  • cls command
  • Ctrl+l (clear screen)

Note that both of these clear the screen and put the cursor at the top .. but you can still scrollback to see previous history.

In OS X Terminal.app you can also do:

  • Command+K (clear scrollback)

Clearing the screen and/or scrollback buffer are independent of the history, so you can still cursor up/down to run previous commands.
