HI, @idcmp, why can't you use the ReplaceById()
or the other methods?
If you have to modify an existing document, which you fetched through a query, then you have the document id, so you can use
ReplaceById()
I could, but ReplaceById
checks that the *Document
passed in has the same objectId has the 2nd arg. Since the *Document
is created by NewDocumentOf(example)
, that Document doesn't have a objectId, so the update fails.
You can simply set the document id on the new document so that it matches the one of the second argument, can't you?
I'll give that a try, I wasn't sure if that was the right way since the objectId
constant is package private.
Yes, but it's Simply a constant for avoiding to directly use the "_id" literal. You can change any field in the document, though
Confirmed this works. Thanks @ostafen !
I can't seem to figure out how to do this. I have a struct whose fields are tagged for clover. I would like to read in a document, Unmarshal it to my struct, make changes to my struct, then update the existing document using my struct.
