Update all the values of a field with a specific string in MongoDB?
To update all the values, use update() along with multi:true. Let us create a collection with documents −
> db.demo720.insertOne({"SubjectName":"MySQL"}); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5eaae7ca43417811278f5883") } > db.demo720.insertOne({"SubjectName":"Java"}); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5eaae7ce43417811278f5884") } > db.demo720.insertOne({"SubjectName":"C"}); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5eaae7d143417811278f5885") } > db.demo720.insertOne({"SubjectName":"C++"}); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5eaae7d543417811278f5886") }
Display all documents from a collection with the help of find() method −
> db.demo720.find();
This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5eaae7ca43417811278f5883"), "SubjectName" : "MySQL" } { "_id" : ObjectId("5eaae7ce43417811278f5884"), "SubjectName" : "Java" } { "_id" : ObjectId("5eaae7d143417811278f5885"), "SubjectName" : "C" } { "_id" : ObjectId("5eaae7d543417811278f5886"), "SubjectName" : "C++" }
Following is the query to update all the values of the field “SubjectName” −
> db.demo720.update({},{$set:{SubjectName:"MongoDB"}},{multi:true}); WriteResult({ "nMatched" : 4, "nUpserted" : 0, "nModified" : 4 })
Display all documents from a collection with the help of find() method −
> db.demo720.find();
This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5eaae7ca43417811278f5883"), "SubjectName" : "MongoDB" } { "_id" : ObjectId("5eaae7ce43417811278f5884"), "SubjectName" : "MongoDB" } { "_id" : ObjectId("5eaae7d143417811278f5885"), "SubjectName" : "MongoDB" } { "_id" : ObjectId("5eaae7d543417811278f5886"), "SubjectName" : "MongoDB" }
