What the explorer shows
Under the connection: Buckets, each with its schemas. Inside each one:
- Collections
- Indexes
- Functions
Query editor
The editor uses SQL, with completion for the connection's objects. Statements and commands run against the database selected in the tab.
What the editor accepts:
SQL++ (N1QL). Collections are named `bucket`.`scope`.`coleccion`; without a prefix they're looked up in the _default scope of the session's bucket. META(d).id is the document key.Ready-made templates for new objects:
- New index
- New primary index
- New function (UDF)
- New scope with collection
