MongoDB Driver v3.6.4

The MongoDB Node.js team is pleased to announce version 3.6.4 of the driver

Release Highlights

Explain Support

The full set of $explain verbosity settings are now supported:

  • queryPlanner
  • queryPlannerExtended
  • executionStats
  • allPlansExecution

In the following commands:

  • aggregate() (MDB 3.0+)
  • find() (MDB 3.0+)
  • remove() (MDB 3.0+)
  • update() (MDB 3.0+)
  • distinct() (MDB 3.2+)
  • findAndModify() (MDB 3.2+)
  • mapReduce() (MDB 4.4+)

You can get a lot of insight into the performance of a query or optimization using these fine grained reports.

Direct Connection Issue Revert

We removed automatic direct connection for the unified topology in the 3.6.3 release of the driver. This change was preparatory for the 4.0 version of the driver, where we'll always perform automatic discovery. To avoid making this kind of change in a patch release, this version restores automatic direct connection when connecting to a single host using the unified topology without a specified replicaSet and without directConnection: false, in line with previous 3.6 releases.

NOTE: In the next major version the unifiedTopology is the only Topology and it is required to either specify a replicaSet name or enable directConnection in order to connect to single nodes in a replica set.

Support Azure and GCP keystores in FLE

There are no functional changes to the driver to support using Azure and GCP keystores but a new mongodb-client-encryption release (v1.2.0) can be found here which prominently features support for these key stores.

Documentation

We invite you to try the driver immediately, and report any issues to the NODE project.

Thanks very much to all the community members who contributed to this release!
