To delete element from an array, use $pull. Let us create a collection with documents −
> db.demo279.insertOne({id:[101,103,105,110]}); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e490af7dd099650a5401a58") } > db.demo279.insertOne({id:[107,111,110]}); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e490b06dd099650a5401a59") }
Display all documents from a collection with the help of find() method −
> db.demo279.find();
This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e490af7dd099650a5401a58"), "id" : [ 101, 103, 105, 110 ] } { "_id" : ObjectId("5e490b06dd099650a5401a59"), "id" : [ 107, 111, 110 ] }
Following is the query to delete element from an array &minus';
> db.demo279.update({},{$pull:{id:110}},{multi:true}); WriteResult({ "nMatched" : 2, "nUpserted" : 0, "nModified" : 2 })
Display all documents from a collection with the help of find() method −
> db.demo279.find();
This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e490af7dd099650a5401a58"), "id" : [ 101, 103, 105 ] } { "_id" : ObjectId("5e490b06dd099650a5401a59"), "id" : [ 107, 111 ] }
