There are various methods available in mongoose to update the document like .save(), findOneAndUpdate(), updateOne(). Each method has it’s own benefits. In today’s post, we are going to use updateOne() & see what is the main difference between update & update one method.
updateOne():
There are multiple documents saved inside MongoDB which match the criteria of update condition. updateOne method matches the first document that satisfies the condition & updates it. By default, updateOne() returns the number of documents matched & a number of documents modified.
const filter = { name: 'John Doe' };
const update = { age: 30 };
const oldDocument = await User.updateOne(filter, update);
oldDocument.n; // Number of documents matched
oldDocument.nModified; // Number of documents modifiedThere are various options available that you can pass along with filter & update.
- timestamps: boolean value that allows you to overwrite timestamps.
- upsert: boolean value that allows you to create a new document if no matching document is found.
- strict: boolean value that overwrites the schema’s strict mode option.
Difference between .update() & updateOne():
The main difference between these two methods is updateOne only updated the first matching documents unlike the update(), which supports the multi or overwrite options.
