DESCRIPTION
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 MongoDB::Database object.
USAGE
Error handling
Unless otherwise explicitly documented, all methods throw exceptions if an error occurs.
The error types are documented in MongoDB::Error.
To catch and handle errors, the Try::Tiny and Safe::Isa 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 Try::Tiny::Retry.
Transactions
To conduct operations in a transactions, get a MongoDB::ClientSession from "start_session"
in MongoDB::MongoClient. 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 MongoDB::ClientSession for options and usage
details.
For detailed instructions on using transactions with MongoDB, see the MongoDB manual page:
Transactions <https://docs.mongodb.com/master/core/transactions>.
Terminology
Document
A collection of key-value pairs. A Perl hash is a document. Array references with an
even number of elements and Tie::IxHash objects may also be used as documents.
Ordered document
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 Tie::IxHash object. You may use a hash reference
if there is only one key/value pair.
Filter expression
A filter expression provides the query criteria
<http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/query-documents/> to select a document for
deletion. It must be an "Ordered document".
ATTRIBUTES
database
The MongoDB::Database representing the database that contains the collection.
name
The name of the collection.
read_preference
A MongoDB::ReadPreference 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 MongoDB::Database
object.
write_concern
A MongoDB::WriteConcern 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
MongoDB::Database object.
read_concern
A MongoDB::ReadConcern 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 MongoDB::Database object.
max_time_ms
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.
bson_codec
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 MongoDB::Database object.
METHODS
client
$client = $coll->client;
Returns the MongoDB::MongoClient object associated with this object.
full_name
$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
$indexes = $collection->indexes;
$collection->indexes->create_one( [ x => 1 ], { unique => 1 } );
$collection->indexes->drop_all;
Returns a MongoDB::IndexView object for managing the indexes associated with the
collection.
clone
$coll2 = $coll1->clone( write_concern => { w => 2 } );
Constructs a copy of the original collection, but allows changing attributes in the copy.
with_codec
$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 )
);
insert_one
$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 MongoDB::InsertOneResult or
MongoDB::UnacknowledgedResult 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:
o "bypassDocumentValidation" - skips document validation, if enabled; this is ignored
for MongoDB servers older than version 3.2.
o "session" - the session to use for these operations. If not supplied, will use an
implicit session. For more information see MongoDB::ClientSession
insert_many
$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
MongoDB::InsertManyResult or MongoDB::UnacknowledgedResult. This is syntactic sugar for
doing a MongoDB::BulkWrite 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:
o "bypassDocumentValidation" - skips document validation, if enabled; this is ignored
for MongoDB servers older than version 3.2.
o "session" - the session to use for these operations. If not supplied, will use an
implicit session. For more information see MongoDB::ClientSession
o "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.
delete_one
$res = $coll->delete_one( $filter );
$res = $coll->delete_one( { _id => $id } );
$res = $coll->delete_one( $filter, { collation => { locale => "en_US" } } );

$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 MongoDB::DeleteResult
or MongoDB::UnacknowledgedResult object.

o "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/>.

replace_one
$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 MongoDB::UpdateResult
or MongoDB::UnacknowledgedResult object.
The replacement document must not have any field-update operators in it (e.g. $set).
A hash reference of options may be provided.
Valid options include:
o "bypassDocumentValidation" - skips document validation, if enabled; this is ignored
for MongoDB servers older than version 3.2.

find
$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 MongoDB::Cursor methods, or with an optional hash
reference of options.
Valid options include:
o "allowPartialResults" - get partial results from a mongos if some shards are down
(instead of throwing an error).
o "batchSize" - the number of documents to return per batch.
o "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/>.

servers before version 3.2.)
o "maxScan" - (DEPRECATED) maximum number of documents or index keys to scan.
o "maxTimeMS" - the maximum amount of time to allow the query to run. (Note, this will
be ignored for servers before version 2.6.)
o "min" - specify the inclusive lower bound for a specific index.
o "modifiers" - (DEPRECATED) a hash reference of dollar-prefixed query modifiers
<http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/reference/operator/query-modifier/> 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.
o "noCursorTimeout" - if true, prevents the server from timing out a cursor after a
period of inactivity.

<https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/method/cursor.showRecordId/> that uniquely
identifies a document in a collection.
o "skip" - the number of documents to skip before returning.
o "sort" - an ordered document defining the order in which to return matching documents.
See the $orderby documentation
<https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/operator/meta/orderby/> for examples.
For more information, see the Read Operations Overview
<http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/core/read-operations-introduction/> in the MongoDB
documentation.
Note, a MongoDB::Cursor 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 MongoDB::QueryResult object:
my $query_result = $coll->find( $filter )->result;
while ( my $next = $query_result->next ) {
...
}
find_one
$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 <http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/project-
fields-from-query-results/> 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:
o "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/>.
o "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.)
o "session" - the session to use for these operations. If not supplied, will use an
implicit session. For more information see MongoDB::ClientSession
o "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
<http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/reference/operator/meta/orderby/>.
See also core documentation on querying: <http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/core/read/>.
find_id
$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.
See also core documentation on querying: <http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/core/read/>.
find_one_and_delete
$doc = $coll->find_one_and_delete( $filter );
$doc = $coll->find_one_and_delete( $filter, $options );
Given a filter expression, this deletes a document from the database and returns it as it
appeared before it was deleted.

find_one_and_replace
$doc = $coll->find_one_and_replace( $filter, $replacement );
$doc = $coll->find_one_and_replace( $filter, $replacement, $options );
Given a filter expression and a replacement document, this replaces a document from the
database and returns it as it was either 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).
A hash reference of options may be provided. Valid keys include:
o "bypassDocumentValidation" - skips document validation, if enabled; this is ignored
for MongoDB servers older than version 3.2.
o "collation" - a document defining the collation for this operation. See docs for the

found
watch
Watches for changes on this collection-
Perform an aggregation with an implicit initial $changeStream stage and returns a
MongoDB::ChangeStream 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
<http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/core/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:
o "fullDocument" - The fullDocument to pass as an option to the $changeStream stage.
Allowed values: "default", "updateLookup". Defaults to "default". When set to
"updateLookup", the change notification for partial updates will include both a delta
describing the changes to the document, as well as a copy of the entire document that
was changed from some time after the change occurred.
o "resumeAfter" - The logical starting point for this change stream. This value can be
obtained from the "_id" field of a document returned by "next" in
MongoDB::ChangeStream. Cannot be specified together with "startAtOperationTime"
o "maxAwaitTimeMS" - The maximum number of milliseconds for the server to wait before
responding.
o "startAtOperationTime" - A BSON::Timestamp specifying at what point in time changes
will start being watched. Cannot be specified together with "resumeAfter". Plain
values will be coerced to BSON::Timestamp objects.
o "session" - the session to use for these operations. If not supplied, will use an
implicit session. For more information see MongoDB::ClientSession
See "aggregate" for more available options.
See the manual section on Change Streams <https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/changeStreams/>
for general usage information on change streams.
See the Change Streams specification
<https://github.com/mongodb/specifications/blob/master/source/change-streams.rst> for
details on change streams.
aggregate
@pipeline = (
{ '$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
MongoDB::QueryResult object.
The first argument must be an array-ref of aggregation pipeline
<http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/core/aggregation-pipeline/> documents. Each pipeline
document must be a hash reference.
Note: Some pipeline documents have ordered arguments, such as $sort. Be sure to provide
these argument using Tie::IxHash. E.g.:
{ '$sort' => Tie::IxHash->new( age => -1, posts => 1 ) }
A hash reference of options may be provided. Valid keys include:
o "allowDiskUse" - if, true enables writing to temporary files.
o "batchSize" - the number of documents to return per batch.
o "bypassDocumentValidation" - skips document validation, if enabled. (Note, this will
be ignored for servers before version 3.2.)
o "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/>.
o "explain" - if true, return a single document with execution information.
o "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.)
o "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>
o "session" - the session to use for these operations. If not supplied, will use an
implicit session. For more information see MongoDB::ClientSession
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 <http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/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_documents
$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:
o "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/>.
o "hint" - specify an index to use; must be a string, array reference, hash reference or
Tie::IxHash object. (Requires server version 3.6 or later.)
o "limit" - the maximum number of documents to count.
o "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.)
o "skip" - the number of documents to skip before counting documents.
o "session" - the session to use for these operations. If not supplied, will use an
implicit session. For more information see MongoDB::ClientSession
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 |
+-------------+--------------------------------+
estimated_document_count
$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:
o "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.)
distinct
$result = $coll->distinct( $fieldname );
$result = $coll->distinct( $fieldname, $filter );
$result = $coll->distinct( $fieldname, $filter, $options );
Returns a MongoDB::QueryResult 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:
o "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/>.
o "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.)
o "session" - the session to use for these operations. If not supplied, will use an
implicit session. For more information see MongoDB::ClientSession
See documentation for the distinct command
<http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/reference/command/distinct/> for details.
rename
$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:
o "session" - the session to use for these operations. If not supplied, will use an
implicit session. For more information see MongoDB::ClientSession
It returns a new MongoDB::Collection object corresponding to the renamed collection.
drop
$collection->drop;
Deletes a collection as well as all of its indexes.
ordered_bulk
$bulk = $coll->ordered_bulk;
$bulk->insert_one( $doc1 );
$bulk->insert_one( $doc2 );
...
$result = $bulk->execute;
Returns a MongoDB::BulkWrite object to group write operations into fewer network round-
trips. This method creates an ordered operation, where operations halt after the first
error. See MongoDB::BulkWrite 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:
o "bypassDocumentValidation" - skips document validation, if enabled; this is ignored
for MongoDB servers older than version 3.2.
unordered_bulk
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
MongoDB::BulkWrite 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:
o "bypassDocumentValidation" - skips document validation, if enabled; this is ignored
for MongoDB servers older than version 3.2.
bulk_write
$res = $coll->bulk_write( [ @requests ], $options )
This method provides syntactic sugar to construct and execute a bulk operation directly,
without using "initialize_ordered_bulk" or "initialize_unordered_bulk" to generate a
MongoDB::BulkWrite object and then calling methods on it. It returns a
MongoDB::BulkWriteResponse object just like the MongoDB::BulkWrite execute method.
The first argument must be an array reference of requests. Requests consist of pairs of a
MongoDB::Collection write method name (e.g. "insert_one", "delete_many") and an array
reference of arguments to the corresponding method name. They may be given as pairs, or
as hash or array references:
# pairs -- most efficient
@requests = (
insert_one => [ { x => 1 } ],
replace_one => [ { x => 1 }, { x => 4 } ],
delete_one => [ { x => 4 } ],
update_many => [ { x => { '$gt' => 5 } }, { '$inc' => { x => 1 } } ],
);
# hash references
@requests = (
{ insert_one => [ { x => 1 } ] },
{ replace_one => [ { x => 1 }, { x => 4 } ] },
{ delete_one => [ { x => 4 } ] },
{ update_many => [ { x => { '$gt' => 5 } }, { '$inc' => { x => 1 } } ] },
);
# array references
@requests = (
[ insert_one => [ { x => 1 } ] ],
[ replace_one => [ { x => 1 }, { x => 4 } ] ],
[ delete_one => [ { x => 4 } ] ],
[ update_many => [ { x => { '$gt' => 5 } }, { '$inc' => { x => 1 } } ] ],
);
Valid method names include "insert_one", "insert_many", "delete_one", "delete_many"
"replace_one", "update_one", "update_many".
An optional hash reference of options may be provided.
Valid options include:
o "bypassDocumentValidation" - skips document validation, if enabled; this is ignored
for MongoDB servers older than version 3.2.
o "ordered" - when true, the bulk operation is executed like "initialize_ordered_bulk".
When false, the bulk operation is executed like "initialize_unordered_bulk". The
default is true.
o "session" - the session to use for these operations. If not supplied, will use an
implicit session. For more information see MongoDB::ClientSession
See MongoDB::BulkWrite for more details on bulk writes. Be advised that the legacy Bulk
API method names differ slightly from MongoDB::Collection method names.
