Executing update and delete operations using a Java client


In the previous recipe, we saw how to execute the find and insert operations in MongoDB using a Java client. In this recipe, we will see how the update and delete operations work from a Java client.

Getting ready

For this recipe, we will start a standalone instance. Refer to the Single node installation of MongoDB recipe in Chapter 1, Installing and Starting the MongoDB Server, to learn how to start the server.

The next step is to download the Java project mongo-cookbook-javadriver from the book's website. This recipe uses a JUnit test case to test out various features of the Java client. In this whole process, we will make use of some of the most common API calls and, thus, learn how to use them.

How to do it…

To execute the test case, one can either import the project in an IDE such as Eclipse and execute the test case or execute the test case from the command prompt using Maven.
