Java Mongodb BasicDBObjectBuilder Example

BasicDBObjectBuilder

BasicDBObjectBuilder is a utility class for building java complex object for mongodb persistance. Please find the below example.

There are three ways can create BasicDBObjectBuilder object

1. Creates an empty object and adding values 
            BasicDBObjectBuilder documentBuilder = BasicDBObjectBuilder.start()
                    .add("name", "vinod")
                    .add("address", "bangalore");

2. Creates object with given key/value 
BasicDBObjectBuilder documentBuilder1 = BasicDBObjectBuilder.start("name","vinod");

3. Creates object with Map 
Map<String, String> map=newHashMap<String, String>();
            map.put("name", "vinod");
            map.put("address", "bangalore");
            BasicDBObjectBuilder documentBuilder2 = BasicDBObjectBuilder.start(map);

Full Example

package com.vinod.mongo.crud;

import java.net.UnknownHostException;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;

import com.mongodb.BasicDBObject;
import com.mongodb.BasicDBObjectBuilder;
import com.mongodb.DB;
import com.mongodb.DBCollection;
import com.mongodb.DBCursor;
import com.mongodb.Mongo;
import com.mongodb.MongoException;

public class MongoBasicDBObjectBuilderExample {

 public static void main(String[] args) {
  try {
   System.out.println("Mongodb Basicdb object example...");
   // Creating mongoinstance
   Mongo mongo = new Mongo("localhost", 27017);
   // Creating database instance
   DB db = mongo.getDB("mydb");

   // Creating collection object
   DBCollection collection = db.getCollection("Employee");
   // Creating BasicDBObjectBuilder object without arguments
   BasicDBObjectBuilder documentBuilder = BasicDBObjectBuilder.start()
     .add("name", "vinod").add("address", "bangalore");
   // get the dbobject from builder and Inserting document
   collection.insert(documentBuilder.get());
   // Creating BasicDBObjectBuilder object with arguments
   BasicDBObjectBuilder documentBuilder1 = BasicDBObjectBuilder
     .start("name", "vinod");
   collection.insert(documentBuilder1.get());
   // Creating BasicDBObjectBuilder object with map arguments
   Map<String, String> map = new HashMap<String, String>();
   map.put("name", "vinod");
   map.put("address", "bangalore");
   BasicDBObjectBuilder documentBuilder2 = BasicDBObjectBuilder
     .start(map);
   collection.insert(documentBuilder2.get());
   // Retrieving collection details
   DBCursor cursorDoc = collection.find();
   while (cursorDoc.hasNext()) {
    System.out.println(" details " + cursorDoc.next());
   }
  } catch (MongoException e) {
   e.printStackTrace();
  }
 }

}

Output

details { "_id" : { "$oid" : "56897261f5d3c814db20c5de"} , "name" : "vinod" , "address" : "Bangalore"}
 details { "_id" : { "$oid" : "568972aef5d3c814ddb7a3d6"} , "name" : "vinod" , "address" : "Bangalore"}
 details { "_id" : { "$oid" : "56897d55f5d3c81553b10d46"} , "name" : "vinod" , "address" : "Bangalore"}
 details { "_id" : { "$oid" : "568f73cdf5d3c83ecf8a8015"} , "name" : "vinod" , "address" : "bangalore"}
 details { "_id" : { "$oid" : "568f73cdf5d3c83ecf8a8016"} , "name" : "vinod"}
 details { "_id" : { "$oid" : "568f73cdf5d3c83ecf8a8017"} , "address" : "bangalore" , "name" : "vinod"}

Done !!
