Node.js + MongoDB: insert one and return the newly inserted document

Question

I\'m wondering if there is a way to insert new document and return it in one go.

This is what I\'m currently using:

db.collection(\'mycollection\').i         


        

Answer 1

The following code worked for me, in MongoDB version 2.2.33.

db.collection("sample_collection").insertOne({
   field1: "abcde"
}, (err, result) => {
   if(err) console.log(err);
   else console.log(result.ops[0].field1)
}
