In MongoDB 3.2, the javascript engine used for both the mongo
shell and for server-side javascript in mongod
changed from V8 to SpiderMonkey.
To confirm which JavaScript engine you are using, you can use either interpreterVersion()
method in the mongo
shell and the javascriptEngine
field in the output of db.serverBuildInfo()
In MongoDB 3.2, this will appear as MozJS-38
and mozjs
, respectively.
SpiderMonkey brings with it increased support for features defined in the 6th edition of ECMAScript, abbreviated as ES6. ES6 adds many new language features, including:
mongo
Shell¶MongoDB 3.2 will return JavaScript and BSON undefined
values intact if saved into a collection. Previously, the mongo
shell would convert undefined
values into null
.
MongoDB 3.2 also adds the disableJavaScriptJIT
parameter to mongod
, which allows you to disable the JavaScript engine’s JIT acceleration. The mongo
shell has a corresponding --disableJavaScriptJIT
flag.
SpiderMonkey does not allow the non-standard Error.captureStackTrace()
function that prior versions of MongoDB supported. If you must record stack traces, you can capture the Error().stack
property as a workaround.
