Managing indexes

Managing indexes are easy with mongosh.

Show indexes:

db.dtls.getIndexes()
[ { v: 2, key: { _id: 1 }, name: '_id_' } ]

Create a new index:

db.dtls.createIndex({userid: 1})
userid_1

Show indexes:

test> db.dtls.getIndexes()
[
  { v: 2, key: { _id: 1 }, name: '_id_' },
  { v: 2, key: { userid: 1 }, name: 'userid_1' }
]

Remove an index:

test> db.dtls.dropIndex("userid_1")
{ nIndexesWas: 2, ok: 1 }
