MongoDBDocument

from mongofire import MongoDB
db = MongoDB('myAppDatabase')

set

To create or overwrite a single document, use the following example:

data = {
    'name': 'Mohamed',
    'age': 20,
}

db.collection('users').document('my_custom_uid').set(data)

If the document does not exist, it will be created. If the document does exist, its contents will be overwritten with the newly provided data, unless you specify that the data should be merged into the existing document, as follows:

doc_ref = db.collection('users').document('my_custom_uid')
doc_ref.set({'gender': 'male'}, merge=True)

update

If you want to update any field in the document, you can use the update method. You can increment values, push or pull items from the list, rename fields, and more.

from mongofire import Field, FieldValue
db.collection('users').document('my_uid').update({
    'name': Field.rename('username'),
    'age': FieldValue.increment(1),
})

To learn more about push, pull, increment, decrement, etc., check out Field and FieldValue classes.

get

To get single document data, use the following example:

doc = db.collection('users').document('my_custom_uid').get()
print(doc.data.to_dict())

To get only specific fields from the document, use the following example:

doc = db.collection('users').document('my_custom_uid').get('hobbies', 'age')
print(doc.data.to_dict())

delete

Delete any document as follows:

db.collection('users').document('doc_id').delete()
