Question

I\'m working with mongoengine in Django,
this is my document defination:

class Location(mongoengine.Document):  
    user_id = mongoengine.IntField(req         


        

Answer 1

There is a new way to do it since version 0.9 (explained here):

location = Location.objects(user_id=user_id).modify(upsert=True, new=True, set__point=point)

It returns the created or updated object.
