In Mongo, how do I display the indexes of a collection?

I just want to display all the indexes in the shell.

Solution

  • If you want raw access to the indexes, you can query the db.system.indexes collection:

    > db.system.indexes.find()

    To find the indexes for a specific collection, you can do:

    > db.collection.getIndexes()
