#include <mongocxx/v_noabi/mongocxx/collection.hpp>

Description

Class representing server side document groupings within a MongoDB database.

Collections do not require or enforce a schema and documents inside of a collection can have different fields. While not a requirement, typically documents in a collection have a similar shape or related purpose.

Example: // Connect and get a collection.

mongocxx::v_noabi::client mongo_client{mongocxx::v_noabi::uri{}};

auto coll = mongo_client["database"]["collection"];

mongocxx::v_noabi::client
Class representing a client connection to MongoDB.
Definition client.hpp:61

mongocxx::v_noabi::uri
Class representing a MongoDB connection string URI.
Definition uri.hpp:43
