Synopsis

bool
mongoc_collection_insert (mongoc_collection_t          *collection,
                          mongoc_insert_flags_t         flags,
                          const bson_t                 *document,
                          const mongoc_write_concern_t *write_concern,
                          bson_error_t                 *error);

Parameters

collection	A mongoc_collection_t.
flags	A mongoc_insert_flags_t.
document	A bson_t.
write_concern	A mongoc_write_concern_t.
error	An optional location for a bson_error_t or NULL.

Description

This function shall insert document into collection.

If no _id element is found in document, then a bson_oid_t will be generated locally and added to the document. If you must know the inserted document's _id, generate it in your code and include it as the first field of document. The _id you generate can be a bson_oid_t or any other non-array BSON type.

Errors

Errors are propagated via the error parameter.

Returns

true if the document was successfully inserted, otherwise false and error is set.

A write concern timeout or write concern error is considered a failure.
