3.2.1 – Jan 12, 2016

Issues fixed:

WiredTiger as Default

Starting in 3.2, MongoDB uses the WiredTiger as the default storage engine.

To specify the MMAPv1 storage engine, you must specify the storage engine setting either:

  • On the command line with the --storageEngine option:

    mongod --storageEngine mmapv1
    
  • Or in a configuration file, using the storage.engine setting:

    storage:
       engine: mmapv1
    

注解

For existing deployments, if you do not specify the --storageEngine or the storage.engine setting, MongoDB 3.2 can automatically determine the storage engine used to create the data files in the --dbpath or storage.dbPath.

If specifying --storageEngine or storage.engine, mongod will not start if dbPath contains data files created by a storage engine other than the one specified.

WiredTiger Default Cache Size

Starting in MongoDB 3.2, the WiredTiger internal cache, by default, will use the larger of either:

  • 60% of RAM minus 1 GB, or
  • 1 GB.

For more information, see WiredTiger and Memory Use.

WiredTiger Journal Write Frequency

MongoDB 3.2 configures WiredTiger to write to the journal files at every 50 milliseconds. This is in addition to the existing joural write intervals and conditions. For more information, see 为了提高当前journal文件频繁的顺序写入速度,您可以将journal文件放在与数据库数据文件不同的文件系统下。.

Replication Election Enhancements

Starting in MongoDB 3.2, MongoDB reduces replica set failover time and accelerates the detection of multiple simultaneous primaries.

As part of this enhancement, MongoDB introduces a version 1 of the replication protocol. New replica sets will, by default, use protocolVersion: 1. Previous versions of MongoDB use version 0 of the protocol.

In addition, MongoDB introduces a new replica set configuration option electionTimeoutMillis. electionTimeoutMillis specifies the time limit in milliseconds for detecting when a replica set’s primary is unreachable.

electionTimeoutMillis only applies if using the version 1 of the replication protocol.

Sharded Cluster Enhancements

MongoDB 3.2 deprecates the use of three mirrored mongod instances for config servers.

Instead, starting in 3.2, the config servers for a sharded cluster can be deployed as a replica set. The replica set config servers must run the WiredTiger storage engine.

This change improves consistency across the config servers, since MongoDB can take advantage of the standard replica set read and write protocols for sharding config data. In addition, this allows a sharded cluster to have more than 3 config servers since a replica set can have up to 50 members.

For more information, see 配置服务器. To deploy a new sharded cluster with replica set config servers, see 部署一个集群.

MongoDB 3.2 deprecates the use of master-slave replication for components of sharded clusters.

readConcern

MongoDB 3.2 introduces the readConcern query option for replica sets and replica set shards. For the WiredTiger storage engine, the readConcern option allows clients to choose a level of isolation for their reads. You can specify a readConcern of "majority" to read data that has been written to a majority of nodes and thus cannot be rolled back. By default, MongoDB uses a readConcern of "local" to return the most recent data available to the node at the time of the query, even if the data has not been persisted to a majority of nodes and may be rolled back. With the MMAPv1 storage engine, you can only specify a readConcern of "local".

readConcern requires MongoDB drivers updated for MongoDB 3.2.

For details on readConcern, including operations that support the option, see Read Concern.

Partial Indexes

MongoDB 3.2 provides the option to create indexes that only index the documents in a collection that meet a specified filter expression. By indexing a subset of the documents in a collection, partial indexes have lower storage requirements and reduced performance costs for index creation and maintenance. You can specify a partialFilterExpression option for all MongoDB index types.

The partialFilterExpression option accepts a document that specifies the condition using:

For details, see Partial Indexes.

Document Validation

Starting in 3.2, MongoDB provides the capability to validate documents during updates and insertions. Validation rules are specified on a per-collection basis.

To specify document validation on a new collection, use the new validator option in the db.createCollection() method. To add document validation to an existing collection, use the new validator option in the collMod command. For more information, see Document Validation.

To view the validation specifications for a collection, use the db.getCollectionInfos() method.

The following commands can bypass validation per operation using the new option bypassDocumentValidation:

For deployments that have enabled access control, you must have bypassDocumentValidation action. The built-in roles dbAdmin and restore provide this action.

Aggregation Framework Enhancements

MongoDB introduces:

New Aggregation Stages

Stage Description Syntax
$sample Randomly selects N documents from its input. { $sample: { size: <positive integer> } }
$indexStats Returns statistics on index usage. { $indexStats: { } }
$lookup Performs a left outer join with another collection.
{
   $lookup:
     {
       from: <collection to join>,
       localField: <fieldA>,
       foreignField: <fieldB>,
       as: <output array field>
     }
}

New Accumulators for $group Stage

Accumulator Description Syntax
$stdDevSamp Calculates standard deviation. { $stdDevSamp: <array> }
$stdDevPop Calculates population standard deviation. { $stdDevPop: <array> }

New Aggregation Arithmetic Operators

Operator Description Syntax
$sqrt Calculates the square root. { $sqrt: <number> }
$abs Returns the absolute value of a number. { $abs: <number> }
$log Calculates the log of a number in the specified base. { $log: [ <number>, <base> ] }
$log10 Calculates the log base 10 of a number. { $log10: <number> }
$ln Calculates the natural log of a number. { $ln: <number> }
$pow Raises a number to the specified exponent. { $pow: [ <number>, <exponent> ] }
$exp Raises e to the specified exponent. { exp: <number> }
$trunc Truncates a number to its integer. { $trunc: <number> }
$ceil Returns the smallest integer greater than or equal to the specified number. { $ceil: <number> }
$floor Returns the largest integer less than or equal to the specified number. { floor: <number> }

New Aggregation Array Operators

Operator Description Syntax
$slice Returns a subset of an array.

{ $slice: [ <array>, <n> ] }

or

{ $slice: [ <array>, <position>, <n> ] }

$arrayElemAt Returns the element at the specified array index. { $arrayElemAt: [ <array>, <idx> ] }
$concatArrays Concatenates arrays.
{
  $concatArrays: [ <array1>, <array2>, ... ]
}
$isArray Determines if the operand is an array. { $isArray: [ <expression> ] }
$filter Selects a subset of the array based on the condition.
{
  $filter:
    {
      input: <array>,
      as: <string>,
      cond: <expression>
    }
}

Accumulator Expression Availability

Starting in version 3.2, the following accumulator expressions, previously only available in the $group stage, are now also available in the $project stage:

When used as part of the $project stage, these accumulator expressions can accept either:

  • A single argument: <accumulator> : <arg>
  • Multiple arguments: <accumulator> : [ <arg1>, <arg2>, ... ]

General Enhancements

  • In MongoDB 3.2, $project stage supports using the square brackets [] to directly create new array fields. For an example, see Project New Array Fields.

  • MongoDB 3.2 introduces the minDistance option for the $geoNear stage.

  • $unwind stage no longer errors on non-array operand. If the operand does not resolve to an array but is not missing, null, or an empty array, $unwind treats the operand as a single element array.

    $unwind stage can:

    • include the array index of the array element in the output by specifying a new option includeArrayIndex in the stage specification.
    • output those documents where the array field is missing, null or an empty array by specifying a new option preserveNullAndEmptyArrays in the stage specification.

    To support these new features, $unwind can now take an alternate syntax. See $unwind for details.

Optimization

Indexes can cover aggregation operations.

MongoDB improves the overall performance of the pipeline in large sharded clusters.

If the pipeline starts with an exact $match on a shard key, the entire pipeline runs on the matching shard only. Previously, the pipeline would have been split, and the work of merging it would have to be done on the primary shard.

For aggregation operations that run on multiple shards, if the operations do not require running on the database’s primary shard, these operations can route the results to any shard to merge the results and avoid overloading the primary shard for that database. Aggregation operations that require running on the database’s primary shard are the $out stage and $lookup stage.

Compatibility

For compatibility changes, see Aggregation Compatibility Changes.

MongoDB Tools Enhancements

Encrypted Storage Engine

Enterprise Feature

Available in MongoDB Enterprise only.

重要

Available for the WiredTiger Storage Engine only.

Encryption at rest, when used in conjunction with transport encryption and good security policies that protect relevant accounts, passwords, and encryption keys, can help ensure compliance with security and privacy standards, including HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and FERPA.

MongoDB Enterprise 3.2 introduces a native encryption option for the WiredTiger storage engine. This feature allows MongoDB to encrypt data files such that only parties with the decryption key can decode and read the data. For detail, see Encrypted Storage Engine.

Text Search Enhancements

text Index Version 3

MongoDB 3.2 introduces a version 3 of the text index. Key features of the new version of the index are:

Starting in MongoDB 3.2, version 3 is the default version for new text indexes.

$text Operator Enhancements

The $text operator adds support for:

For more information and examples, see the $text operator reference sections Case Insensitivity and Diacritic Insensitivity.

Support for Additional Languages

Enterprise Feature

Available in MongoDB Enterprise only.

Starting in 3.2, MongoDB Enterprise provides support for the following languages: Arabic, Farsi (specifically Dari and Iranian Persian dialects), Urdu, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese.

For details, see 使用基本技术Rosette语义平台的文本索引.

New Storage Engines

inMemory Storage Engine

Enterprise Feature

Available in MongoDB Enterprise only.

MongoDB Enterprise 3.2 provides an in-memory storage engine. Other than some metadata, the in-memory storage engine does not maintain any on-disk data. By avoiding disk I/O, the in-memory storage engine allows for more predictable latency of database operations.

To select this storage engine, specify

  • inMemory for the --storageEngine option or the storage.engine setting.
  • --dbpath. Although the in-memory storage engine does not write data to the filesystem, it maintains in the --dbpath small metadata files and diagnostic data as well temporary files for building large indexes.

The inMemory storage engine uses document-level locking. For more details, see 内存存储引擎.

ephemeralForTest Storage Engine

MongoDB 3.2 provides a new for-test storage engine. Other than some metadata, the for-test storage engine does not maintain any on-disk data, removing the need to clean up between test runs. The for-test storage engine is unsupported.

警告

For test purposes only. Do not use in production.

To select this storage engine, specify

  • ephemeralForTest for the --storageEngine option or the storage.engine setting.
  • --dbpath. Although the for-test storage engine does not write data to the filesystem, it maintains small metadata files in the --dbpath.

The ephemeralForTest storage engine uses collection-level locking.

General Enhancements

Bit Test Query Operators

MongoDB 3.2 provides new query operators to test bit values:

SpiderMonkey JavaScript Engine

MongoDB 3.2 uses SpiderMonkey as the JavaScript engine for the mongo shell and mongod server. SpiderMonkey provides support for additional platforms and has an improved memory management model.

This change affects all JavaScript behavior including the commands mapReduce, group, and the query operator $where; however, this change should be completely transparent to the user.

mongo Shell and CRUD API

To provide consistency with the MongoDB drivers’ CRUD (Create/Read/Update/Delete) API, the mongo shell introduces additional CRUD methods that are consistent with the drivers’ CRUD API:

New API Description
db.collection.bulkWrite()

Equivalent to initializing Bulk() operations builder, using Bulk methods to add operations, and running Bulk.execute() to execute the operations.

MongoDB 3.2 deprecates Bulk() and its associated methods.

db.collection.deleteMany() Equivalent to db.collection.remove().
db.collection.deleteOne()

Equivalent to db.collection.remove() with the justOne set to true; i.e.

db.collection.remove( <query>, true ) or db.collection.remove( <query>, { justOne: true } ).

db.collection.findOneAndDelete() Equivalent to db.collection.findAndModify() method with remove set to true.
db.collection.findOneAndReplace() Equivalent to db.collection.findAndModify() method with update set to a replacement document.
db.collection.findOneAndUpdate() Equivalent to db.collection.findAndModify() method with update set to a document that specifies modifications using update operators.
db.collection.insertMany() Equivalent to db.collection.insert() method with an array of documents as the parameter.
db.collection.insertOne() Equivalent to db.collection.insert() method with a single document as the parameter.
db.collection.replaceOne() Equivalent to db.collection.update( <query>, <update> ) method with a replacement document as the <update> parameter.
db.collection.updateMany() Equivalent to db.collection.update( <query>, <update>, { multi: true, ... }) method with an <update> document that specifies modifications using update operators and the multi option set to true.
db.collection.updateOne() Equivalent to db.collection.update( <query>, <update> ) method with an <update> document that specifies modifications using update operators.

WiredTiger and fsyncLock

Starting in MongoDB 3.2, the WiredTiger storage engine supports the fsync command with the lock option or the mongo shell method db.fsyncLock(). That is, for the WiredTiger storage engine, these operations can guarantee that the data files do not change, ensuring consistency for the purposes of creating backups.

Platform Support

Starting in 3.2, 32-bit binaries are deprecated and will be unavailable in future releases.

MongoDB 3.2 deprecates support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

$type Operator Accepts String Aliases

$type operator accepts string aliases for the BSON types in addition to the numbers corresponding to the BSON types.

explain() Support for distinct() Operation

db.collection.explain() adds support for db.collection.distinct() method. For more information, see db.collection.explain().

explain Support for findAndModify and distinct Commands

explain adds support for the distinct and findAndModify commands. For more information, see explain.

Deprecation of the HTTP Interface

Starting in 3.2, MongoDB deprecates its HTTP interface.

keysExamined Count Includes the Last Scanned Key

For explain operations run in executionStats or allPlansExecution mode, the explain output contains the keysExamined statistic, representing the number of index keys examined during index scans.

Prior to 3.2, keysExamined count in some queries did not include the last scanned key. As of 3.2 this error has been corrected. For more information, see :data:` ~explain.executionStats.executionStages.inputStage.keysExamined`.

The diagnostic logs and the system profiler report on this statistic.

Geospatial Optimization

MongoDB 3.2 introduces version 3 of 2dsphere indexes, which index GeoJSON geometries at a finer gradation. The new version improves performance of 2dsphere index queries over smaller regions. In addition, for both 2d indexes and 2dsphere indexes, the performance of geoNear queries has been improved for dense datasets.

Diagnostic Data Capture

To facilitate analysis of the MongoDB server behavior by MongoDB engineers, MongoDB 3.2 introduces a diagnostic data collection mechanism for logging server statistics to diagnostic files at periodic intervals. By default, the mechanism captures data at 1 second intervals. To modify the interval, see diagnosticDataCollectionPeriodMillis.

MongoDB creates a diagnostic.data directory under the mongod instance’s --dbpath or storage.dbPath. The diagnostic data is stored in files under this directory.

The maximum size of the diagnostic files is configurable with the diagnosticDataCollectionFileSizeMB, and the maximum size of the diagnostic.data directory is configurable with diagnosticDataCollectionDirectorySizeMB.

The default values for the capture interval and the maximum sizes are chosen to provide useful data to MongoDB engineers with minimal impact on performance and storage size. Typically, these values will only need modifications as requested by MongoDB engineers for specific diagnostic purposes.

Write Concern

  • For replica sets using protocolVersion: 1, secondaries acknowledge write operations after the secondary members have written to their respective on-disk journals, regardless of the j option.
  • For replica sets using protocolVersion: 1, w: "majority" implies j: true.
  • With j: true, MongoDB returns only after the requested number of members, including the primary, have written to the journal. Previously j: true write concern in a replica set only requires the primary to write to the journal, regardless of the w: <value> write concern.

journalCommitInterval for WiredTiger

MongoDB 3.2 adds support for specifying the journal commit interval for the WiredTiger storage engine. See journalCommitInterval option. In previous versions, the option is applicable to MMAPv1 storage engine only.

For the corresponding configuration file setting, MongoDB 3.2 adds the storage.journal.commitIntervalMs setting and deprecates storage.mmapv1.journal.commitIntervalMs. The deprecated storage.mmapv1.journal.commitIntervalMs setting acts as an alias to the new storage.journal.commitIntervalMs setting.
