This class models a MongoDB collection and provides an API for interacting
with it.
Generally, you never construct one of these directly with new. Instead, you
call get_collection on a the MongoDB::Database manpage object.
Unless otherwise explicitly documented, all methods throw exceptions if
an error occurs. The error types are documented in the MongoDB::Error manpage.
To catch and handle errors, the the Try::Tiny manpage and the Safe::Isa manpage modules
are recommended:
use Try::Tiny;
use Safe::Isa; # provides $_isa
try {
$coll->insert_one( $doc )
}
catch {
if ( $_->$_isa("MongoDB::DuplicateKeyError" ) {
...
}
else {
...
}
};
To retry failures automatically, consider using the Try::Tiny::Retry manpage.
To conduct operations in a transactions, get a the MongoDB::ClientSession manpage
from start_session in the MongoDB::MongoClient manpage. Start the transaction on the
session using start_transaction and pass the session as an option to all
operations. Then call commit_transaction or abort_transaction on the
session. See the the MongoDB::ClientSession manpage for options and usage details.
For detailed instructions on using transactions with MongoDB, see the
MongoDB manual page:
Transactions.
A collection of key-value pairs. A Perl hash is a document. Array
references with an even number of elements and the Tie::IxHash manpage objects may also
be used as documents.
Many MongoDB::Collection method parameters or options require an ordered
document: an ordered list of key/value pairs. Perl's hashes are not
ordered and since Perl v5.18 are guaranteed to have random order. Therefore,
when an ordered document is called for, you may use an array reference of pairs
or a the Tie::IxHash manpage object. You may use a hash reference if there is only
one key/value pair.
A filter expression provides the query criteria to select a
document for deletion. It must be an Ordered document.
The the MongoDB::Database manpage representing the database that contains
the collection.
The name of the collection.
A the MongoDB::ReadPreference manpage object. It may be initialized with a string
corresponding to one of the valid read preference modes or a hash reference
that will be coerced into a new MongoDB::ReadPreference object.
By default it will be inherited from a the MongoDB::Database manpage object.
A the MongoDB::WriteConcern manpage object. It may be initialized with a hash
reference that will be coerced into a new MongoDB::WriteConcern object.
By default it will be inherited from a the MongoDB::Database manpage object.
A the MongoDB::ReadConcern manpage object. May be initialized with a hash
reference or a string that will be coerced into the level of read
concern.
By default it will be inherited from a the MongoDB::Database manpage object.
Specifies the default maximum amount of time in milliseconds that the
server should use for working on a query.
Note: this will only be used for server versions 2.6 or greater, as that
was when the $maxTimeMS meta-operator was introduced.
An object that provides the encode_one and decode_one methods, such
as from BSON. It may be initialized with a hash reference that
will be coerced into a new BSON object. By default it will be
inherited from a the MongoDB::Database manpage object.
$client = $coll->client;
Returns the the MongoDB::MongoClient manpage object associated with this
object.
$full_name = $coll->full_name;
Returns the full name of the collection, including the namespace of the
database it's in prefixed with a dot character. E.g. collection ``foo'' in
database ``test'' would result in a full_name of ``test.foo''.
$indexes = $collection->indexes;
$collection->indexes->create_one( [ x => 1 ], { unique => 1 } );
$collection->indexes->drop_all;
Returns a the MongoDB::IndexView manpage object for managing the indexes associated
with the collection.
$coll2 = $coll1->clone( write_concern => { w => 2 } );
Constructs a copy of the original collection, but allows changing
attributes in the copy.
$coll2 = $coll1->with_codec( $new_codec );
$coll2 = $coll1->with_codec( prefer_numeric => 1 );
Constructs a copy of the original collection, but clones the bson_codec.
If given an object that does encode_one and decode_one, it is
equivalent to:
$coll2 = $coll1->clone( bson_codec => $new_codec );
If given a hash reference or a list of key/value pairs, it is equivalent
to:
$coll2 = $coll1->clone(
bson_codec => $coll1->bson_codec->clone( @list )
);
$res = $coll->insert_one( $document );
$res = $coll->insert_one( $document, $options );
$id = $res->inserted_id;
Inserts a single document into the database and returns a
the MongoDB::InsertOneResult manpage or the MongoDB::UnacknowledgedResult manpage object.
If no _id field is present, one will be added when a document is
serialized for the database without modifying the original document.
The generated _id may be retrieved from the result object.
An optional hash reference of options may be given.
Valid options include:
-
bypassDocumentValidation - skips document validation, if enabled; this is ignored for MongoDB servers older than version 3.2.
-
session - the session to use for these operations. If not supplied, will use an implicit session. For more information see the MongoDB::ClientSession manpage
$res = $coll->insert_many( [ @documents ] );
$res = $coll->insert_many( [ @documents ], { ordered => 0 } );
Inserts each of the documents in an array reference into the
database and returns a the MongoDB::InsertManyResult manpage or
the MongoDB::UnacknowledgedResult manpage. This is syntactic sugar for doing a
the MongoDB::BulkWrite manpage operation.
If no _id field is present, one will be added when a document is
serialized for the database without modifying the original document.
The generated _id may be retrieved from the result object.
An optional hash reference of options may be provided.
Valid options include:
-
bypassDocumentValidation - skips document validation, if enabled; this is ignored for MongoDB servers older than version 3.2.
-
session - the session to use for these operations. If not supplied, will use an implicit session. For more information see the MongoDB::ClientSession manpage
-
ordered – when true, the server will halt insertions after the first error (if any). When false, all documents will be processed and any error will only be thrown after all insertions are attempted. The default is true.
On MongoDB servers before version 2.6, insert_many bulk operations are
emulated with individual inserts to capture error information. On 2.6 or
later, this method will be significantly faster than individual insert_one
calls.
$res = $coll->delete_one( $filter );
$res = $coll->delete_one( { _id => $id } );
$res = $coll->delete_one( $filter, { collation => { locale => "en_US" } } );
Deletes a single document that matches a filter expression and returns a
the MongoDB::DeleteResult manpage or the MongoDB::UnacknowledgedResult manpage object.
A hash reference of options may be provided.
Valid options include:
$res = $coll->delete_many( $filter );
$res = $coll->delete_many( { name => "Larry" } );
$res = $coll->delete_many( $filter, { collation => { locale => "en_US" } } );
Deletes all documents that match a filter expression
and returns a the MongoDB::DeleteResult manpage or the MongoDB::UnacknowledgedResult manpage
object.
Valid options include:
$res = $coll->replace_one( $filter, $replacement );
$res = $coll->replace_one( $filter, $replacement, { upsert => 1 } );
Replaces one document that matches a filter expression and returns a the MongoDB::UpdateResult manpage or
the MongoDB::UnacknowledgedResult manpage object.
The replacement document must not have any field-update operators in it (e.g.
$set).
A hash reference of options may be provided.

and returns a the MongoDB::UpdateResult manpage or the MongoDB::UnacknowledgedResult manpage
object.
The update document must have only field-update operators in it (e.g.

$cursor = $coll->find( $filter );
$cursor = $coll->find( $filter, $options );
$cursor = $coll->find({ i => { '$gt' => 42 } }, {limit => 20});
Executes a query with a filter expression and returns a
lazy MongoDB::Cursor object. (The query is not immediately
issued to the server; see below for details.)
The query can be customized using the MongoDB::Cursor manpage methods, or with an
optional hash reference of options.
Valid options include:
-
allowPartialResults - get partial results from a mongos if some shards are down (instead of throwing an error).
-
batchSize – the number of documents to return per batch.
-
collation - a document defining the collation for this operation. See docs for the format of the collation document here: https://docs.mongodb.com/master/reference/collation/.
-
comment – attaches a comment to the query.
-
cursorType – indicates the type of cursor to use. It must be one of three string values: 'non_tailable' (the default), 'tailable', and 'tailable_await'.
-
hint – specify an index to use; must be a string, array reference, hash reference or the Tie::IxHash manpage object.
-
limit – the maximum number of documents to return.
-
max – specify the exclusive upper bound for a specific index.
-
maxAwaitTimeMS – the maximum amount of time for the server to wait on new documents to satisfy a tailable cursor query. This only applies to a cursorType of 'tailable_await'; the option is otherwise ignored. (Note, this will be ignored for servers before version 3.2.)
-
maxScan – (DEPRECATED) maximum number of documents or index keys to scan.
-
maxTimeMS – the maximum amount of time to allow the query to run. (Note, this will be ignored for servers before version 2.6.)
-
min – specify the inclusive lower bound for a specific index.
-
modifiers – (DEPRECATED) a hash reference of dollar-prefixed query modifiers modifying the output or behavior of a query. Top-level options will always take precedence over corresponding modifiers. Supported modifiers include $comment, $hint, $maxScan, $maxTimeMS, $max, $min, $orderby, $returnKey, $showDiskLoc, and $snapshot. Some options may not be supported by newer server versions.
-
noCursorTimeout – if true, prevents the server from timing out a cursor after a period of inactivity.
-
projection - a hash reference defining fields to return. See ``limit fields to return'' in the MongoDB documentation for details.
-
session - the session to use for these operations. If not supplied, will use an implicit session. For more information see the MongoDB::ClientSession manpage
-
returnKey – Only return the index field or fields for the results of the query.
-
showRecordId – modifies the output of a query by adding a field $recordId that uniquely identifies a document in a collection.
-
skip – the number of documents to skip before returning.
-
sort – an ordered document defining the order in which to return matching documents. See the $orderby documentation for examples.
For more information, see the Read Operations Overview in
the MongoDB documentation.
Note, a the MongoDB::Cursor manpage object holds the query and does not issue the
query to the server until the result method is
called on it or until an iterator method like next
is called. Performance will be better directly on a
the MongoDB::QueryResult manpage object:
my $query_result = $coll->find( $filter )->result;
while ( my $next = $query_result->next ) {
...
}
$doc = $collection->find_one( $filter, $projection );
$doc = $collection->find_one( $filter, $projection, $options );
Executes a query with a filter expression and returns a
single document.
If a projection argument is provided, it must be a hash reference specifying
fields to return. See Limit fields to return
in the MongoDB documentation for details.
If only a filter is provided or if the projection document is an empty hash
reference, all fields will be returned.
my $doc = $collection->find_one( $filter );
my $doc = $collection->find_one( $filter, {}, $options );
A hash reference of options may be provided as a third argument. Valid keys
include:
-
collation - a document defining the collation for this operation. See docs for the format of the collation document here: https://docs.mongodb.com/master/reference/collation/.
-
maxTimeMS – the maximum amount of time in milliseconds to allow the command to run. (Note, this will be ignored for servers before version 2.6.)
-
session - the session to use for these operations. If not supplied, will use an implicit session. For more information see the MongoDB::ClientSession manpage
-
sort – an ordered document defining the order in which to return matching documents. If $orderby also exists in the modifiers document, the sort field overwrites $orderby. See docs for $orderby.
See also core documentation on querying:
http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/core/read/.
$doc = $collection->find_id( $id );
$doc = $collection->find_id( $id, $projection );
$doc = $collection->find_id( $id, $projection, $options );
Executes a query with a filter expression of { _id
=> $id } and returns a single document.
See the find_one documentation for details on the $projection and $options parameters.

right before or right after the replacement. The default is 'before'.
The replacement document must not have any field-update operators in it (e.g.
$set).

Watches for changes on this collection-
Perform an aggregation with an implicit initial $changeStream stage
and returns a the MongoDB::ChangeStream manpage result which can be used to
iterate over the changes in the collection. This functionality is
available since MongoDB 3.6.
my $stream = $collection->watch();
my $stream = $collection->watch( \@pipeline );
my $stream = $collection->watch( \@pipeline, \%options );
while (1) {
# This inner loop will only run until no more changes are
# available.
while (my $change = $stream->next) {
# process $change
}
}
The returned stream will not block forever waiting for changes. If you
want to respond to changes over a longer time use maxAwaitTimeMS and
regularly call next in a loop.
Note: Using this helper method is preferred to manually aggregating
with a $changeStream stage, since it will automatically resume when
the connection was terminated.
The optional first argument must be an array-ref of
aggregation pipeline
documents. Each pipeline document must be a hash reference. Not all
pipeline stages are supported after $changeStream.
The optional second argument is a hash reference with options:
-
fullDocument - The fullDocument to pass as an option to the $changeStream stage. Allowed values: default, updateLookup. Defaults to default. When set to updateLookup, the change notification for partial updates will include both a delta describing the changes to the document, as well as a copy of the entire document that was changed from some time after the change occurred.
-
resumeAfter - The logical starting point for this change stream. This value can be obtained from the _id field of a document returned by next in the MongoDB::ChangeStream manpage. Cannot be specified together with startAtOperationTime
-
maxAwaitTimeMS - The maximum number of milliseconds for the server to wait before responding.
-
startAtOperationTime - A the BSON::Timestamp manpage specifying at what point in time changes will start being watched. Cannot be specified together with resumeAfter. Plain values will be coerced to the BSON::Timestamp manpage objects.
-
session - the session to use for these operations. If not supplied, will use an implicit session. For more information see the MongoDB::ClientSession manpage
See aggregate for more available options.
See the manual section on Change Streams
for general usage information on change streams.
See the Change Streams specification
for details on change streams.
@pipeline = (
{ '$group' => { _id => '$state,' totalPop => { '$sum' => '$pop' } } },
{ '$match' => { totalPop => { '$gte' => 10 * 1000 * 1000 } } }
);
$result = $collection->aggregate( \@pipeline );
$result = $collection->aggregate( \@pipeline, $options );
Runs a query using the MongoDB 2.2+ aggregation framework and returns a
the MongoDB::QueryResult manpage object.
The first argument must be an array-ref of aggregation pipeline documents.
Each pipeline document must be a hash reference.
Note: Some pipeline documents have ordered arguments, such as $sort.
Be sure to provide these argument using the Tie::IxHash manpage. E.g.:
{ '$sort' => Tie::IxHash->new( age => -1, posts => 1 ) }
A hash reference of options may be provided. Valid keys include:
-
allowDiskUse – if, true enables writing to temporary files.
-
batchSize – the number of documents to return per batch.
-
bypassDocumentValidation - skips document validation, if enabled. (Note, this will be ignored for servers before version 3.2.)
-
collation - a document defining the collation for this operation. See docs for the format of the collation document here: https://docs.mongodb.com/master/reference/collation/.
-
explain – if true, return a single document with execution information.
-
maxTimeMS – the maximum amount of time in milliseconds to allow the command to run. (Note, this will be ignored for servers before version 2.6.)
-
hint - An index to use for this aggregation. (Only compatible with servers above version 3.6.) For more information, see the other aggregate options here: https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/command/aggregate/index.html
-
session - the session to use for these operations. If not supplied, will use an implicit session. For more information see the MongoDB::ClientSession manpage
Note MongoDB 2.6+ added the '$out' pipeline operator. If this operator is
used to write aggregation results directly to a collection, an empty result
will be returned. Create a new collection> object to query the generated result
collection. When $out is used, the command is treated as a write operation
and read preference is ignored.
See Aggregation in the MongoDB manual
for more information on how to construct aggregation queries.
Note The use of aggregation cursors is automatic based on your server
version. However, if migrating a sharded cluster from MongoDB 2.4 to 2.6
or later, you must upgrade your mongod servers first before your mongos
routers or aggregation queries will fail. As a workaround, you may
pass cursor => undef as an option.
$count = $coll->count_documents( $filter );
$count = $coll->count_documents( $filter, $options );
Returns a count of documents matching a filter expression.
To return a count of all documents, use an empty hash reference as the filter.
NOTE: this may result in a scan of all documents in the collection.
For a fast count of the total documents in a collection see
estimated_document_count instead.
A hash reference of options may be provided. Valid keys include:
-
collation - a document defining the collation for this operation. See docs for the format of the collation document here: https://docs.mongodb.com/master/reference/collation/.
-
hint – specify an index to use; must be a string, array reference, hash reference or the Tie::IxHash manpage object. (Requires server version 3.6 or later.)
-
limit – the maximum number of documents to count.
-
maxTimeMS – the maximum amount of time in milliseconds to allow the command to run. (Note, this will be ignored for servers before version 2.6.)
-
skip – the number of documents to skip before counting documents.
-
session - the session to use for these operations. If not supplied, will use an implicit session. For more information see the MongoDB::ClientSession manpage
NOTE: When upgrading from the deprecated count method, some legacy
operators are not supported and must be replaced:
+-------------+--------------------------------+
| Legacy | Modern Replacement |
+=============+================================+
| $where | $expr (Requires MongoDB 3.6+) |
+-------------+--------------------------------+
| $near | $geoWithin with $center |
+-------------+--------------------------------+
| $nearSphere | $geoWithin with $centerSphere |
+-------------+--------------------------------+
$count = $coll->estimated_document_count();
$count = $coll->estimated_document_count($options);
Returns an estimated count of documents based on collection metadata.
NOTE: this method does not support sessions or transactions.
A hash reference of options may be provided. Valid keys include:
-
maxTimeMS – the maximum amount of time in milliseconds to allow the command to run. (Note, this will be ignored for servers before version 2.6.)
$result = $coll->distinct( $fieldname );
$result = $coll->distinct( $fieldname, $filter );
$result = $coll->distinct( $fieldname, $filter, $options );
Returns a the MongoDB::QueryResult manpage object that will provide distinct values for
a specified field name.
The query may be limited by an optional filter expression.
A hash reference of options may be provided. Valid keys include:
-
collation - a document defining the collation for this operation. See docs for the format of the collation document here: https://docs.mongodb.com/master/reference/collation/.
-
maxTimeMS – the maximum amount of time in milliseconds to allow the command to run. (Note, this will be ignored for servers before version 2.6.)
-
session - the session to use for these operations. If not supplied, will use an implicit session. For more information see the MongoDB::ClientSession manpage
See documentation for the distinct command for
details.
$newcollection = $collection->rename("mynewcollection");
Renames the collection. If a collection already exists with the new collection
name, this method will throw an exception.
A hashref of options may be provided.
Valid options include:
It returns a new the MongoDB::Collection manpage object corresponding to the renamed
collection.
$collection->drop;
Deletes a collection as well as all of its indexes.
$bulk = $coll->ordered_bulk;
$bulk->insert_one( $doc1 );
$bulk->insert_one( $doc2 );
...
$result = $bulk->execute;
Returns a the MongoDB::BulkWrite manpage object to group write operations into fewer network
round-trips. This method creates an ordered operation, where operations halt after
the first error. See the MongoDB::BulkWrite manpage for more details.
The method initialize_ordered_bulk_op may be used as an alias.
A hash reference of options may be provided.
Valid options include:
-
bypassDocumentValidation - skips document validation, if enabled; this is ignored for MongoDB servers older than version 3.2.
This method works just like ordered_bulk except that the order that
operations are sent to the database is not guaranteed and errors do not halt processing.
See the MongoDB::BulkWrite manpage for more details.
The method initialize_unordered_bulk_op may be used as an alias.
A hash reference of options may be provided.
Valid options include:
-
bypassDocumentValidation - skips document validation, if enabled; this is ignored for MongoDB servers older than version 3.2.
$res = $coll->bulk_write( [ @requests ], $options )
This method provides syntactic sugar to construct and execute a bulk operation
directly, without using initialize_ordered_bulk or
initialize_unordered_bulk to generate a the MongoDB::BulkWrite manpage object and
then calling methods on it. It returns a the MongoDB::BulkWriteResponse manpage object
just like the MongoDB::BulkWrite execute method.
The first argument must be an array reference of requests. Requests consist
of pairs of a MongoDB::Collection write method name (e.g. insert_one,
delete_many) and an array reference of arguments to the corresponding
method name. They may be given as pairs, or as hash or array
references:
# pairs -- most efficient
@requests = (
insert_one => [ { x => 1 } ],
replace_one => [ { x => 1 }, { x => 4 } ],
delete_one => [ { x => 4 } ],
update_many => [ { x => { '$gt' => 5 } }, { '$inc' => { x => 1 } } ],
);
# hash references
