MongoDB CRUD Operations

Master fundamental MongoDB Create, Read, Update, Delete operations.

Quick Start

Connect to MongoDB

javascript
const { MongoClient } = require('mongodb');

const client = new MongoClient('mongodb://localhost:27017');
await client.connect();

const db = client.db('myapp');
const users = db.collection('users');

Create Documents

javascript
// Insert one document
const result = await users.insertOne({
  name: 'John Doe',
  email: 'john@example.com',
  age: 30,
  createdAt: new Date()
});
console.log('Inserted ID:', result.insertedId);

// Insert multiple documents
await users.insertMany([
  { name: 'Alice', email: 'alice@example.com' },
  { name: 'Bob', email: 'bob@example.com' }
]);

Read Documents

javascript
// Find one document
const user = await users.findOne({ email: 'john@example.com' });

// Find all documents
const allUsers = await users.find({}).toArray();

// Find with filter
const activeUsers = await users.find({ status: 'active' }).toArray();

// Find by ObjectId
const { ObjectId } = require('mongodb');
const user = await users.findOne({ _id: new ObjectId('...') });

Update Documents

javascript
// Update one document
const result = await users.updateOne(
  { email: 'john@example.com' },
  { $set: { age: 31, updatedAt: new Date() } }
);

// Update multiple documents
await users.updateMany(
  { status: 'inactive' },
  { $set: { lastNotified: new Date() } }
);

// Replace entire document
await users.replaceOne(
  { _id: userId },
  { name: 'New Name', email: 'new@example.com' }
);

Delete Documents

javascript
// Delete one document
await users.deleteOne({ email: 'john@example.com' });

// Delete multiple documents
await users.deleteMany({ status: 'deleted' });

// Delete all documents (careful!)
await users.deleteMany({});

BSON Data Types

javascript
// String
{ name: 'John' }

// Number (int32, int64, double)
{ age: 30, price: 19.99 }

// Boolean
{ isActive: true }

// Date
{ createdAt: new Date() }

// Array
{ tags: ['mongodb', 'database', 'nosql'] }

// Object (embedded document)
{ address: { city: 'New York', zip: '10001' } }

// ObjectId (default _id field)
{ _id: ObjectId('507f1f77bcf86cd799439011') }

// Null
{ description: null }

// Binary Data
{ image: Buffer.from('data') }

// Regular Expression
{ email: /.*@example\.com/ }

Key Concepts

  • _id Field: Automatically generated ObjectId, unique identifier
  • Collections: Tables equivalent in SQL
  • Documents: JSON-like records (up to 16MB)
  • Field Names: Case-sensitive, cannot start with $
  • Operators: $set, $inc, $push, $pull, $unset, etc.

Python Example (PyMongo)

python
from pymongo import MongoClient
from datetime import datetime

client = MongoClient('mongodb://localhost:27017')
db = client['myapp']
users = db['users']

# Insert
result = users.insert_one({
    'name': 'John',
    'email': 'john@example.com',
    'createdAt': datetime.now()
})

# Read
user = users.find_one({'email': 'john@example.com'})

# Update
users.update_one(
    {'_id': result.inserted_id},
    {'$set': {'age': 30}}
)

# Delete
users.delete_one({'_id': result.inserted_id})

Best Practices

✅ Always handle errors with try-catch ✅ Use connection pooling ✅ Close connections properly ✅ Use ObjectId for _id fields ✅ Validate data before insertion ✅ Use appropriate write concerns ✅ Index frequently queried fields ✅ Plan for schema evolution
