MONGOC_COLLECTION_UPDATE_ONE(3)

NAME
mongoc_collection_update_one - mongoc_collection_update_one()

SYNOPSIS

bool
mongoc_collection_update_one (mongoc_collection_t *collection,
                              const bson_t *selector,
                              const bson_t *update,
                              const bson_t *opts,
                              bson_t *reply,
                              bson_error_t *error);

PARAMETERS

•   collection: A mongoc_collection_t.

•   selector: A bson_t containing the query to match the document for updating.

•   update: A bson_t containing the update to perform.

•   opts: A bson_t containing additional options or NULL.

•   reply: Optional. An uninitialized bson_t populated with the update result, or NULL.

•   error: An optional location for a bson_error_t or NULL.

    opts may be NULL or a BSON document with additional command options:

•   readConcern: Construct a mongoc_read_concern_t and use mongoc_read_concern_append to add the read concern to opts. See the example code for mongoc_client_read_command_with_opts.

•   writeConcern: Construct a mongoc_write_concern_t and use mongoc_write_concern_append to add the write concern to opts. See the example code for mongoc_client_write_command_with_opts.

•   sessionId: Construct a mongoc_client_session_t with mongoc_client_start_session and use mongoc_client_session_append to add the session to opts. See the example code for mongoc_client_session_t.

•   validate: Set to false to skip client-side validation of the provided BSON documents.

•   bypassDocumentValidation: Set to true to skip server-side schema validation of the provided BSON documents.

•   collation: Configure textual comparisons. See Setting Collation Order, and the MongoDB Manual entry on Collation.

•   serverId: To target a specific server, include an int32 “serverId” field. Obtain the id by calling mongoc_client_select_server, then mongoc_server_description_id on its return value.

•   arrayFilters An array of filters specifying to which array elements an update should apply.

•   upsert A boolean, when true, creates a new document if no document matches the query.

DESCRIPTION

This function updates at most one document in collection that matches selector.

To update multiple documents see mongoc_collection_update_many.

If you pass a non-NULL reply, it is filled out with fields “modifiedCount” and “matchedCount”. If a document was upserted, reply contains an “upsertedId” field. If there is a server error then reply contains either a “writeErrors” array with one subdocument or a “writeConcernErrors” array. The reply must be freed with bson_destroy().

SEE ALSO

MongoDB update command documentation for more information on the update options.

mongoc_collection_replace_one

ERRORS

Errors are propagated via the error parameter.

RETURNS

Returns true if successful. Returns false and sets error if there are invalid arguments or a server or network error.

A write concern timeout or write concern error is considered a failure.

If provided, reply will be initialized and populated with the fields matchedCount, modifiedCount, and optionally upsertedId if applicable.
