Profiling MongoDB queries when using C# driver

Question

Is there a way to log the actual queries that are produced by the MongoDB C# driver and sent to the mongodb? Like in SQL Server, you have SQL Profiler that shows you all the incoming queries.

Answer 1

You can enable profiling and see actual queries in mongodb log as @pingw33n suggested.

Or you can create extention method for collection.Find and log data there:

public static class MongodbExtentions
{
    public static MongoCursor<T> FindAsAndLogQuery<T>(this MongoCollection<T> coll, 
                                                                    IMongoQuery query)
    {
        var queryString = query.ToJson();
        //log query here , insert into mongodb, etc ...
        return coll.FindAs<T>(query);
    }
}
