沿着@James Cropcho的回答，我找到了下面这个我觉得超级好用的方法。这是一个二进制工具，这正是我正在寻找的: mongoeye。

使用这个工具，大约花了2分钟从命令行导出我的模式。

下面是用Python编写的示例: 这个示例内联返回结果。

from pymongo import MongoClient
from bson.code import Code

mapper = Code("""
    function() {
                  for (var key in this) { emit(key, null); }
               }
""")
reducer = Code("""
    function(key, stuff) { return null; }
""")

distinctThingFields = db.things.map_reduce(mapper, reducer
    , out = {'inline' : 1}
    , full_response = True)
## do something with distinctThingFields['results']

可能有点偏离主题，但你可以递归地漂亮打印对象的所有键/字段:

function _printFields(item, level) {
    if ((typeof item) != "object") {
        return
    }
    for (var index in item) {
        print(" ".repeat(level * 4) + index)
        if ((typeof item[index]) == "object") {
            _printFields(item[index], level + 1)
        }
    }
}

function printFields(item) {
    _printFields(item, 0)
}

当集合中的所有对象都具有相同的结构时非常有用。

我扩展了Carlos LM的解决方案，使其更加详细。

一个模式的例子:

var schema = {
    _id: 123,
    id: 12,
    t: 'title',
    p: 4.5,
    ls: [{
            l: 'lemma',
            p: {
                pp: 8.9
            }
        },
         {
            l: 'lemma2',
            p: {
               pp: 8.3
           }
        }
    ]
};

在控制台输入:

var schemafy = function(schema, i, limit) {
    var i = (typeof i !== 'undefined') ? i : 1;
    var limit = (typeof limit !== 'undefined') ? limit : false;
    var type = '';
    var array = false;

    for (key in schema) {
        type = typeof schema[key];
        array = (schema[key] instanceof Array) ? true : false;

        if (type === 'object') {
            print(Array(i).join('    ') + key+' <'+((array) ? 'array' : type)+'>:');
            schemafy(schema[key], i+1, array);
        } else {
            print(Array(i).join('    ') + key+' <'+type+'>');
        }

        if (limit) {
            break;
        }
    }
}

Run:

schemafy(db.collection.findOne());

输出

_id <number>
id <number>
t <string>
p <number>
ls <object>:
    0 <object>:
    l <string>
    p <object>:
        pp <number> 

基于@Wolkenarchitekt的回答:https://stackoverflow.com/a/48117846/8808983，我写了一个脚本，可以在db中找到所有键的模式，我认为它可以帮助其他人阅读这个线程:

我有一个更简单的工作…

你能做的是插入数据/文档到你的主集合“东西”，你必须在一个单独的集合中插入属性，让我们说“things_attributes”。

所以每次你插入"things"时，你确实会从"things_attributes"中得到该文档的值与你的新文档键的值进行比较，如果有任何新键存在，则将其追加到该文档中并再次重新插入它。

所以things_attributes只有一个唯一键的文档你可以通过findOne()很容易地得到
