PARAMETERS

This function creates a cursor which will execute the command when mongoc_cursor_next() is called on it. The database's read preference, read concern, and write concern are not applied to the command, and mongoc_cursor_next() will not check the server response for a write concern error or write concern timeout.

This function is not considered a retryable read operation.

  • database: A mongoc_database_t.
  • flags: A mongoc_query_flags_t.
  • skip: The number of documents to skip on the server.
  • limit: The maximum number of documents to return from the cursor.
  • batch_size: Attempt to batch results from the server in groups of batch_size documents.
  • command: A bson_t containing the command.
  • fields: An optional bson_t containing the fields to return. NULL for all fields.
  • read_prefs: An optional mongoc_read_prefs_t. Otherwise, the command uses mode MONGOC_READ_PRIMARY.

This function returns a newly allocated mongoc_cursor_t that should be freed with mongoc_cursor_destroy() when no longer in use. The returned mongoc_cursor_t is never NULL, even on error. The user must call mongoc_cursor_next() on the returned mongoc_cursor_t to execute the initial command.

Cursor errors can be checked with mongoc_cursor_error_document(). It always fills out the bson_error_t if an error occurred, and optionally includes a server reply document if the error occurred server-side.

WARNING:

Failure to handle the result of this function is a programming error.
