Basic commands on MongoDB.

This blog will include the basic commands on MongoDB including the  'CRUD' operations.

To gain access to MongoDB open up the command prompt and run the command  'mongod'  to start the server, and open up a separate command prompt and run the command  'mongo'  to access the MongoDB.

Show all the available databases.





Create new database.

In this example a new database called  'mycustomers'  has been created.




Once a database is created and if it does not have data, that database will not be visible when   'show dbs'  command is used.





Show the current working databases.

To display the current working database  'db'  command is used. Since the working database is   'mycustomers' 'db' command results mycustomers.



Adding a collection to the database.



Displaying the collection of the database.




Deleting the collection of the database.

In this example there are two collections inside  'mycustomers'  database.



And in this example 'mycustomer'  collection is dropped using   'drop()'




Inserting a field to the collection.



Displaying the field of the collection.



Updating the field of the collection.




Once the field is updated it can be viewed by  'find()' 




Deleting the field of the collection.

With the help of helpers( Handler Mappings, Controller, View Resolver, View) front controller will responds the client with HTML and data.

Basic concepts on ReactJS

Props and State. Props and state are the two basic ways to handle data in ReactJS.  Props are used to pass data and behaviors from container components to child components. Props are read only. State is used to keep data which can be updated. State is read write enabled. State. State is basically available through  'this.state', which is by default is null. Whenever the state changes on a component the component will  automatically re-render and update DOM (Document Object Model) if there are any changes else the DOM will not get touched at all. Using state. To change the state setState() method can be used. Since setTimeOut() method is used in the bellow example after a second (1000ms)  'Will'   will be changed to  'Bob'.   Changing the state using  'setState()' If the component has an internal value that does not effect the application state is appropriate. A side from that props can be used. Props. Pro...
