Answer 1

I've found that this little package called Mongol is good for development to have a quick and easy way to look at your data right from within your web app.

RoboMongo provides a good UI for Mongo DB (Download link). When i tried with meteor, follow these steps:

• Run Meteor cd ing into your Project Folder (usually runs at http://localhost:3000/)

• Download and Install the Robomongo from the Download link

• Create a new connection in the robomongo UI, clicking on the following icon:

  

Connect to port number 3001 instead of default 27017, and you can see the mongo db and it's contents

Use either:

• Z Mongo Admin, a meteor package similar to Django admin. This is probably the closest to what you're looking for: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixJyB8Z-tU8&list=UU3fBiJrFFMhKlsWM46AsAYw

• One of the many Mongo GUIs, I use both robomongo (http://robomongo.org/) and mongohub (https://github.com/bububa/MongoHub-Mac) on OSX.
