@danmandle This is already on the todo list, though not explicitly as such (so will leave this issue open).

Adding support for standard MongoDB connection strings can address several issues including:

  • #84 (specifying slaveOk / read preferences)
  • #116 (connecting to replica sets)
  • #437 (easy copy of server address)

Not sure yet whether that should be parsing the URI to distribute into individual fields (eg. hostname, port, default database, auth) or providing a the URI as an alternative connection value.

Adding my vote to this.

This will make more simple our migration from other mongodb managers, up vote for this feature request.

Thanks a lot for your interest guys.
Development for this feature has been started, planing to include not in the next release (Robomongo 0.9.0) but in the following release (Robomongo 1.0) with Replica Set support.
