Model.updateMany()

Parameters

• filter «Object»
• doc «Object»

• [options] «Object» optional see Query.prototype.setOptions()

• [options.strict] «Boolean|String» overwrites the schema’s strict mode option

• [options.upsert=false] «Boolean» if true, and no documents found, insert a new document

• [options.writeConcern=null] «Object» sets the write concern for replica sets. Overrides the schema-level write concern

• [options.omitUndefined=false] «Boolean» If true, delete any properties whose value is undefined when casting an update. In other words, if this is set, Mongoose will delete baz from the update in Model.updateOne({}, { foo: 'bar', baz: undefined }) before sending the update to the server.

• [options.timestamps=null] «Boolean» If set to false and schema-level timestamps are enabled, skip timestamps for this update. Does nothing if schema-level timestamps are not set.

• [callback] «Function» function(error, res) {} where res has 3 properties: n, nModified, ok.

Returns:

• «Query»

Same as update(), except MongoDB will update all documents that match filter (as opposed to just the first one) regardless of the value of the multi option.

Note updateMany will not fire update middleware. Use pre('updateMany') and post('updateMany') instead.

Example:

const res = await Person.updateMany({ name: /Stark$/ }, { isDeleted: true });
res.n; // Number of documents matched
res.nModified; // Number of documents modified

This function triggers the following middleware.

• updateMany()
