mongoc_client_read_command_with_opts(3)

mongoc_client_read_command_with_opts3

Usage

Use this function for commands that read such as "count" or "distinct".

Parameters

•

client: A mongoc_client_t.

•

db_name: The name of the database to run the command on.

•

command: A bson_t containing the command specification.

•

read_prefs: An optional mongoc_read_prefs_t.

•

opts: A bson_t containing additional options.

•

reply: A maybe-NULL pointer to overwritable storage for a bson_t to contain the results.

•

error: An optional location for a bson_error_t or NULL.

opts may be NULL or a BSON document with additional command options:

•

readConcern: Construct a mongoc_read_concern_t and use mongoc_read_concern_append() to add the read concern to opts. See the example code for mongoc_client_read_command_with_opts(). Read concern requires MongoDB 3.2 or later, otherwise an error is returned.

•

sessionId: First, construct a mongoc_client_session_t with mongoc_client_start_session(). You can begin a transaction with mongoc_client_session_start_transaction(), optionally with a mongoc_transaction_opt_t that overrides the options inherited from client, and use mongoc_client_session_append() to add the session to opts. See the example code for mongoc_client_session_t.

•

collation: Configure textual comparisons. See Setting Collation Order, and the MongoDB Manual entry on Collation. Collation requires MongoDB 3.2 or later, otherwise an error is returned.

•

serverId: To target a specific server, include an int32 "serverId" field. Obtain the id by calling mongoc_client_select_server(), then mongoc_server_description_id() on its return value.

Consult the MongoDB Manual entry on Database Commands for each command's arguments.

Errors

Errors are propagated via the error parameter.

Returns

Returns true if successful. Returns false and sets error if there are invalid arguments or a server or network error.

Examples

example-command-with-opts.c

/*
Demonstrates how to prepare options for mongoc_client_read_command_with_opts and
mongoc_client_write_command_with_opts. First it calls "cloneCollectionAsCapped"
command with "writeConcern" option, then "distinct" command with "collation" and
"readConcern" options,
Start a MongoDB 3.4 replica set with --enableMajorityReadConcern and insert two
documents:
$ mongo
MongoDB Enterprise replset:PRIMARY> db.my_collection.insert({x: 1, y: "One"})
WriteResult({ "nInserted" : 1 })
MongoDB Enterprise replset:PRIMARY> db.my_collection.insert({x: 2, y: "Two"})
WriteResult({ "nInserted" : 1 })
Build and run the example:
gcc example-command-with-opts.c -o example-command-with-opts $(pkg-config
--cflags --libs libmongoc-1.0)
./example-command-with-opts [CONNECTION_STRING]
cloneCollectionAsCapped: { "ok" : 1 }
distinct: { "values" : [ 1, 2 ], "ok" : 1 }
