NAME
mongoc_collection_command() - This function shall execute a command on a collection. This is performed lazily and therefore requires calling mongoc_cursor_next() on the resulting cursor structure. The cursor should be freed with mongoc_cursor_destroy() when no longer in use.
SYNOPSIS
mongoc_cursor_t * mongoc_collection_command (mongoc_collection_t *collection, mongoc_query_flags_t flags, uint32_t skip, uint32_t limit, uint32_t batch_size, const bson_t *command, const bson_t *fields, const mongoc_read_prefs_t *read_prefs) BSON_GNUC_WARN_UNUSED_RESULT;
PARAMETERS
collection A mongoc_collection_t \&. flags A mongoc_query_flags_t \&. skip A uint32_t with the number of documents to skip or zero. limit A uint32_t with the max number of documents to return or zero. batch_size A uint32_t with the number of documents in each batch or zero. Default is 100. command A bson_t containing the command to execute. fields A bson_t containing the fields to return or NULL \&. Not all commands support this option. read_prefs A mongoc_read_prefs_t or NULL \&.
DESCRIPTION
This function shall execute a command on a collection. This is performed lazily and therefore requires calling mongoc_cursor_next(3) on the resulting cursor structure. The cursor should be freed with mongoc_cursor_destroy(3) when no longer in use.
RETURNS
A lazy mongoc_cursor_t that should be freed with mongoc_cursor_destroy(3) \&. NOTE Failure to handle the result of this function is a programming error.
