Example Request: Unmarshal/Update/Replace about clover HOT 6 CLOSED

Confirmed this works. Thanks @ostafen !

HI, @idcmp, why can't you use the ReplaceById() or the other methods?

If you have to modify an existing document, which you fetched through a query, then you have the document id, so you can use
ReplaceById()

from clover.

I could, but ReplaceById checks that the *Document passed in has the same objectId has the 2nd arg. Since the *Document is created by NewDocumentOf(example), that Document doesn't have a objectId, so the update fails.

You can simply set the document id on the new document so that it matches the one of the second argument, can't you?

from clover.

I'll give that a try, I wasn't sure if that was the right way since the objectId constant is package private.

from clover.

Yes, but it's Simply a constant for avoiding to directly use the "_id" literal.
You can change any field in the document, though
