• Complete Stage Support: All 42 MongoDB aggregation pipeline stages including $match, $group, $lookup, $facet, $search, and more
• Multiple Views: Switch between visual Stages View and raw JSON Text View for maximum flexibility
• Real-time Output: Generate JSON pipeline and MongoDB query formats instantly as you build
• Browser Compatible: Runs entirely in the browser without Node.js dependencies
• Fully Themeable: Customize appearance with CSS variables to match your application's design
• TypeScript Support: Full TypeScript definitions for all stages and configurations
• Event-Driven: Listen to pipeline changes and export events for integration

Installation

npm install @rakmaster/mongo-aggregation-builder

Usage

<template>
  <MongoAggregationBuilder
    :theme="customTheme"
    :initial-pipeline="existingPipeline"
    @pipeline-change="onPipelineChange"
    @export-pipeline="onExportPipeline"
  />
</template>

<script setup>
import { MongoAggregationBuilder } from '@rakmaster/mongo-aggregation-builder'
import '@rakmaster/mongo-aggregation-builder/style'

const existingPipeline = [
  { "$match": { "status": "active" } },
  { "$group": { "_id": "$category", "count": { "$sum": 1 } } }
]

const customTheme = {
  'bg-color': '#1a1a1a',
  'text-color': '#ffffff',
  'button-bg': '#4a9eff'
}

const onPipelineChange = (pipeline) => {
  console.log('Pipeline updated:', pipeline)
  // Save to your backend or local storage
}

const onExportPipeline = (pipeline) => {
  console.log('Export requested:', pipeline)
  // Handle export (copy to clipboard, download file, etc.)
}
</script>

Output Formats

JSON Pipeline

[
  { "$match": { "status": "active" } },
  { "$group": { "_id": "$category", "count": { "$sum": 1 } } }
]

MongoDB Query

db.collection.aggregate([
  { "$match": { "status": "active" } },
  { "$group": { "_id": "$category", "count": { "$sum": 1 } } }
])

Theming

Customize the appearance using CSS variables:

:root {
  --bg-color: #ffffff;
  --text-color: #333333;
  --button-bg: #007bff;
  --button-hover-bg: #0056b3;
  --border-color: #cccccc;
  --input-bg: #ffffff;
  --error-color: #dc3545;
}

Vuetify Integration

The component automatically adapts to Vuetify themes when used within a Vuetify application. It will use Vuetify's CSS custom properties as fallback values, so the component will match your Vuetify theme out of the box.

Supported Vuetify theme variables:

• --v-theme-primary - Primary color
• --v-theme-surface - Background color
• --v-theme-on-surface - Text color on surfaces
• --v-theme-outline - Border color
• --v-theme-surface-variant - Input background
• --v-theme-error - Error color
• --v-theme-error-container - Error background
• --v-theme-font - Font family
