Definition¶
- insert¶
2.6 新版功能.
The insert command inserts one or more documents and returns a document containing the status of all inserts. The insert methods provided by the MongoDB drivers use this command internally.
The command has the following syntax:
{ insert: <collection>, documents: [ <document>, <document>, <document>, ... ], ordered: <boolean>, writeConcern: { <write concern> } }
The insert command takes the following fields:
Field Type Description insert string The name of the target collection. documents array An array of one or more documents to insert into the named collection. ordered boolean Optional. If true, then when an insert of a document fails, return without inserting any remaining documents listed in the inserts array. If false, then when an insert of a document fails, continue to insert the remaining documents. Defaults to true. writeConcern document Optional. A document expressing the write concern of the insert command. Omit to use the default write concern. 返回: A document that contains the status of the operation. See Output for details.
Behavior¶
The total size of all the documents array elements must be less than or equal to the maximum BSON document size.
The total number of documents in the documents array must be less than or equal to the maximum bulk size.
Examples¶
Insert a Single Document¶
Insert a document into the users collection:
db.runCommand(
{
insert: "users",
documents: [ { _id: 1, user: "abc123", status: "A" } ]
}
)
The returned document shows that the command successfully inserted a document. See Output for details.
{ "ok" : 1, "n" : 1 }
Bulk Insert¶
Insert three documents into the users collection:
db.runCommand(
{
insert: "users",
documents: [
{ _id: 2, user: "ijk123", status: "A" },
{ _id: 3, user: "xyz123", status: "P" },
{ _id: 4, user: "mop123", status: "P" }
],
ordered: false,
writeConcern: { w: "majority", wtimeout: 5000 }
}
)
The returned document shows that the command successfully inserted the three documents. See Output for details.
{ "ok" : 1, "n" : 3 }
Output¶
The returned document contains a subset of the following fields:
- insert.ok¶
The status of the command.
- insert.n¶
The number of documents inserted.
- insert.writeErrors¶
An array of documents that contains information regarding any error encountered during the insert operation. The writeErrors array contains an error document for each insert that errors.
Each error document contains the following fields:
- insert.writeErrors.index¶
An integer that identifies the document in the documents array, which uses a zero-based index.
- insert.writeErrors.code¶
An integer value identifying the error.
- insert.writeErrors.errmsg¶
A description of the error.
- insert.writeConcernError¶
Document that describe error related to write concern and contains the field:
- insert.writeConcernError.code¶
An integer value identifying the cause of the write concern error.
- insert.writeConcernError.errmsg¶
A description of the cause of the write concern error.
The following is an example document returned for a successful insert of a single document:
{ ok: 1, n: 1 }
The following is an example document returned for an insert of two documents that successfully inserted one document but encountered an error with the other document:
{
"ok" : 1,
"n" : 1,
"writeErrors" : [
{
"index" : 1,
"code" : 11000,
"errmsg" : "insertDocument :: caused by :: 11000 E11000 duplicate key error index: test.users.$_id_ dup key: { : 1.0 }"
}
]
}
