Last Updated :
29 Dec, 2022
The Mongoose Query API findOneAndUpdate() method is used to find and update only a single document, from a collection, using the MongoDB query system.
Syntax:
Query.prototype.findOneAndUpdate(filter, doc, options, callback)
Parameters: It accepts the following 4 parameters as mentioned above and described below:
- filter: It is a mongoose object which identifies the existing document to update.
- doc: It is a mongoose object which is the document that will update the data in the existing document.
- options: It is an optional mongoose object which is derived from Query.prototype.setOptions().
- callback: It is a callback function that accepts 2 parameters, error and doc.
Return type: It returns a Query object as a response.
Creating node application And Installing Mongoose:
Step 1: Create a node application using the following command:
mkdir folder_name
cd folder_name
npm init -y
touch main.js
Step 2: After completing the Node.js application, Install the required module using the following command:
npm install mongoose
Example 1: In this example, we will use this method to find and update an existing document that has an age greater than “18”.
Filename: main.js
Javascript
const mongoose = require( 'mongoose' )
{
dbName: 'event_db' ,
useNewUrlParser: true ,
useUnifiedTopology: true
}, err => err ? console.log(err)
: console.log( 'Connected to database' ));
const personSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
name: {
type: String,
},
age: {
type: Number,
}
});
const personsArray = [
{
name: 'Luffy' ,
age: 19
},
{
name: 'Nami' ,
age: 20,
},
{
name: 'Zoro' ,
age: 35
}
]
const Person = mongoose.model( 'Person' , personSchema);
(async () => {
await Person.insertMany(personsArray);
const res = await Person.findOneAndUpdate(
{ age: { $gt: 18 } }, { age: 21 }
);
console.log({ res });
})()

Step to Run Application: Run the application using the following command from the root directory of the project:
node main.js
