MongoDB | Exploring Insert Option

db.tableName.insertMany([{_id: 1, name: 1}, {_id: 2, name: 2}, {_id: 3, name: 3}])

This will insert documents. In case let assume name:2 is already in database, it will insert name:1 and throw error. the name: 3 won’t be inserted in default behaviour. To get new document inserted and skip the already inserted documents, we can use:

db.tableName.insertMany([{_id: 1, name: 1}, {_id: 2, name: 2}, {_id: 3, name: 3}], {ordered: false})

The argument ordered: false will insert document which are not present in the document. By default the ordered is set to true.


mongoimport Downloads/tv-shows.json -d MoviesData -c MoviesCollection --jsonArray

import document from json file, -d creates database if not exists, -c create collection if not exsist, –jsonArray if the document contain array of documents.
