More to come.

Example:

First we connect to fakehost.

$ gomon --host fakehost
connecting to mongodb://fakehost
connected
gomon>

Next we list the available databases()

gomon> show.dbs
test                    0.203125GB
fake                    0.203125GB
dev                     0.203125GB

Switch to the dev database

gomon> use.dev

For autocompletion, type use.<TAB> to see a list of available databases.

Show the dev database collections

gomon> show.collections
system.indexes
users
products

Get a count of the users collection

gomon> db.users.count(console.log)
gomon> null 392984
