8. Find • db.test.find() • Equivalent of SELECT * FROM test; > db.test.insert({hello: ‘world’}); > db.test.find(); { "_id" : ObjectId("4e7c9f464bdd7534bc498ff7"), "hello" : "world" } Friday, 20 April 12
9. Updating • db.test.update(<condition>, <operation>) > db.test.find(); { "_id" : ObjectId("4e7c9f464bdd7534bc498ff7"), "hello" : "world" } > db.test.update({hello:‘world’}, {hello: ‘seedhack’}); > db.test.find(); { "_id" : ObjectId("4e7c9f464bdd7534bc498ff7"), "hello" : "seedhack" } Friday, 20 April 12
10. Removing • db.test.remove(<condition>) > db.test.find(); { "_id" : ObjectId("4e7c9f464bdd7534bc498ff7"), "hello" : "seedhack" } > db.test.remove({hello: ‘seedhack’}); > db.test.count() 0 > Friday, 20 April 12
11. Indexes • It’s usually a good idea to index your collections • How and which columns depends on what you are doing • explain > db.test.ensureIndex({hello:1}) Friday, 20 April 12
