Python MongoDB – find_one_and_update Query

The function find_one_and_update() actually finds and updates a MongoDB document. Though default-wise this function returns the document in its original form and to return the updated document return_document has to be implemented in the code.

Syntax: 

coll.find_one_and_update(filter, update, options) 

Parameters:

  • col- collection in MongoDB
  • filter- criteria to find the document which needs to be updated
  • update- The operations which need to be implemented for updating the document
  • options- projection or upsert can be used here
  • projection- a mapping which informs about which fields are included and excluded, it is 1/TRUE for including a field and 0/FALSE for excluding
  • upsert- for inserting a new document if no file is found with the mentioned criteria upsert is TRUE
  • return_document: If ReturnDocument.BEFORE (the default), returns the original document before it was replaced, or None if no document matches. If ReturnDocument.AFTER, returns the replaced or inserted document.
