I have this data
{
"_id": ObjectId("575e66a4c2b503944800002b"),
"phone": "201-780-8497",
"orders": [
"1961682636",
"43243242"
]
}
I want to remove order '43243242' where phone is "201-780-8497"
Here is my PHP code
$collection->update(
array('phone'=>$doc['phone']),
array('$pull' => array('orders' => array('1961682636'), array('safe' => TRUE))
));
This does nothing, no error, no exception.
Where I am getting wrong?
You update operation should be :
db.collection.update(
{ "phone" : "201-780-8497" },
{ "$pull": { "orders": "43243242" } }
)
and your PHP code:
$collection->update(
array('phone' => '201-780-8497'),
array('$pull' => array('orders' => '43243242'))
);
You are getting it wrong on the $pull syntax; you don't need to push the element you want to remove to an array as the $pull document, just reference the value. For a more detailed explanation, consult the docs.
