You need to have Python installed and Mongodb set up.
-
First, import the necessary libraries:
1 from pymongo import MongoClient- Then, connect to your MongoDB server. By default, the server is started on the localhost at port 27017:
1 client = MongoClient('mongodb://localhost:27017/')- Choose the database and collection that you want to delete documents from:
1 db = client['mydatabase']
2 collection = db['mycollection']- Finally, delete the documents based on the conditions specified. For example, to delete all documents in the collection:
1 collection.delete_many({})Or to delete documents that meet a specific condition, for example, if the field ‘age’ is greater than 50:
1 collection.delete_many({'age': {'$gt': 50}})Please replace ‘mydatabase’, ‘mycollection’, and the condition with your actual database name, collection name, and condition.
- Ensure to exit or terminate the connection to the MongoDB server when you’re done.
1 client.close()By following these steps, you can delete documents from your MongoDB collection using Python.
