findOneAndUpdate() code example

Example 1: mongoose findoneandupdate

// note: this uses async/await so it assumes the whole thing 
// is in an async function 

const doc = await CharacterModel.findOneAndUpdate(
  { name: 'Jon Snow' },
  { title: 'King in the North' },
  // If `new` isn't true, `findOneAndUpdate()` will return the
  // document as it was _before_ it was updated.
  { new: true }
);

doc.title; // "King in the North"

Example 2: mongofindoneandupate

try {
db.grades.findOneAndUpdate(
   { "name" : "A.B. Abracus" },
   { $set: { "name" : "A.B. Abracus", "assignment" : 5}, $inc : { "points" : 5 } },
   { sort: { "points" : 1 }, upsert:true, returnNewDocument : true }
);
}
catch (e){
   print(e);
}

Example 3: findone and update mongoose

// Using queries with promise chaining
Model.findOne({ name: 'Mr. Anderson' }).
  then(doc => Model.updateOne({ _id: doc._id }, { name: 'Neo' })).
  then(() => Model.findOne({ name: 'Neo' })).
  then(doc => console.log(doc.name)); // 'Neo'

// Using queries with async/await
const doc = await Model.findOne({ name: 'Neo' });
console.log(doc.name); // 'Neo'

Example 4: findoneandupdate new true

const filter = { name: 'Will Riker' };
const update = { age: 29 };

await Character.countDocuments(filter); // 0

let res = await Character.findOneAndUpdate(filter, update, {
  new: true,
  upsert: true,
  rawResult: true // Return the raw result from the MongoDB driver
});

res.value instanceof Character; // true
// The below property will be `false` if MongoDB upserted a new
// document, and `true` if MongoDB updated an existing object.
res.lastErrorObject.updatedExisting; // false
