MongoClient.getDatabase
MongoDatabase getDatabase(string dbName)Returns an object representing the specified database.
The returned object allows to access the database entity (which contains a set of collections). There are two main use cases:
- Accessing collections using a relative path
- Performing service commands on the database itself
Note that there is no performance gain in accessing collections via a relative path compared to getCollection and an absolute path.
Returns
MongoDatabase instance representing requested database
Examples
auto db = client.getDatabase("test");
auto coll = db["collection"];
