How to properly do a Bulk upsert/update in MongoDB

Question

I\'m trying to:

• Find a document according to a search criteria,
• If found, update some attributes
• If not insert a document with some attribut

Your syntax here is basically correct, but your general execution was wrong and you should have "seperated" the "upsert" action from the other modifications. These will otherwise "clash" and produce an error when an "upsert" occurs:

LineupPointsRecord.native(function (err,collection) {

    var bulk = collection.initializeOrderedBulkOp();

    // Match and update only. Do not attempt upsert
    bulk.find({
        "teamId": lineUpPointsGeneralRecord.teamId,
        "round": 0
    }).updateOne({
        "$inc": { "lfPoints": roundPoints },
        "$push": { "roundPoints": roundPoints }
    });

    // Attempt upsert with $setOnInsert only
    bulk.find({
        "teamId": lineUpPointsGeneralRecord.teamId,
        "round": 0
    }).upsert().updateOne({
        "$setOnInsert": lineUpPointsGeneralRecord
    });

    bulk.execute(function (err,updateResult) {
        sails.log.debug(err,updateResult);
    });
});

Make sure your sails-mongo is a latest version supporting the Bulk operations properly be the inclusion of a recent node native driver. The most recent supports the v2 driver, which is fine for this.
