mongodb updateOne code example

Example 1: mongodb update field inside array

Consider the following document in the students collection whose grades element value is an array of embedded documents:

{
  _id: 4,
  grades: [
     { grade: 80, mean: 75, std: 8 },
     { grade: 85, mean: 90, std: 5 },
     { grade: 85, mean: 85, std: 8 }
  ]
}

Use the positional $ operator to update the std field of the first array element that matches the grade equal to 85 condition:

IMPORTANT
---------
You must include the array field as part of the query document.

db.students.updateOne(
   { _id: 4, "grades.grade": 85 },
   { $set: { "grades.$.std" : 6 } }
)
After the operation, the document has the following updated values:

{
   "_id" : 4,
   "grades" : [
      { "grade" : 80, "mean" : 75, "std" : 8 },
      { "grade" : 85, "mean" : 90, "std" : 6 },
      { "grade" : 85, "mean" : 85, "std" : 8 }
   ]
}

Example 2: mongodb updateone

db.<collection>.updateOne({ id : 8400704 },{ $set: { name : "John" } })

Example 3: mongodb update

db.collectionName.update({"aField":"vale1"},{$set:{"anotherField":"value2"}})

-search for documentations for more examples than search
-aField is used to find the documents
-anotherField is the field that will be updated
-You can also use the below:
-- updateOne
-- findOneAndUpdate

Example 4: updateone mongodb examples

const query = { "name": "football" };
const update = {
  "$push": {
    "reviews": {
      "username": "tombradyfan",
      "comment": "I love football!!!"
    }
  }
};
const options = { "upsert": false };

itemsCollection.updateOne(query, update, options)
  .then(result => {
    const { matchedCount, modifiedCount } = result;
    if(matchedCount && modifiedCount) {
      console.log(`Successfully added a new review.`)
    }
  })
  .catch(err => console.error(`Failed to add review: ${err}`))
