| Description |
|
End user created a collection with space character at the end of collection name accidentally in a GUI tool, and imported documents by the GUI tool successfully. Due to space character is invisible in GUI, user didn't find the space character for long time, and encountered issue when tried to query the collection in command (because the space character is missed). The issue blocked end user for long time, and was reported, investigated, and resolved. Can MongoDB can provide a feature to restrict invisible characters (like space) on collection name? to prevent same issue in the future? Most end users of this service prefer to use GUI tool to manage database, but some invisible character in collection name can cause trouble like above.
