Mongoose | updateOne() Function

The updateOne() function is used to update the first document that matches the condition. This function is the same as update(), except it does not support the multi or overwrite options.

Installation of mongoose module:

1. You can visit the link to Install mongoose module. You can install this package by using this command.

   npm install mongoose

2. After installing mongoose module, you can check your mongoose version in command prompt using the command.

   npm version mongoose

3. After that, you can just create a folder and add a file, for example index.js. To run this file you need to run the following command.

   node index.js

Filename: index.js

const mongoose = require('mongoose');

// Database connection
mongoose.connect('mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017/geeksforgeeks', {
    useNewUrlParser: true,
    useCreateIndex: true,
    useUnifiedTopology: true,
    useFindAndModify: false
});

// User model
const User = mongoose.model('User', {
    name: { type: String },
    age: { type: Number }
});

// Find all documents matching the condition
// (age >= 5) and update first document
// This function has 4 parameters i.e.
// filter, update, options, callback
User.updateOne({age:{$gte:5}},
    {name:"ABCD"}, function (err, docs) {
    if (err){
        console.log(err)
    }
    else{
        console.log("Updated Docs : ", docs);
    }
});
