Here I want to post some examples of using MongoDB shell. Examples were taken from https://education.10gen.com from M101J course.
Here main CRUD commands usage.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Insert
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
db.fruit.insert({name:"apple" , color: "red"}, shape: "round");
insert a document into the "fruit" collection with the attributes of "name" being "apple", "color" being "red", and "shape" being round
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Find

db.users.findOne({username:"dwight"}, {_id:false, email: true});
find one document where the key username is "dwight", and retrieve only the key named email
db.scores.find({type:"essay" , score:50} , {student: true, _id: false});
find all documents with an essay score equal to 50 and only retrieve the student field
db.scores.find({ score : { $gte : 50 , $lte : 60 } } );
finds documents with a score between 50 and 60, inclusive
db.users.find( { name : { $gte : "F" , $lte : "Q" } } );
find all users with name between "F" and "Q"
db.users.find({name:{$regex:"q"}, email:{$exists:true}});
retrieves documents from a users collection where the name has a "q" in it, and the document has an email field

db.people.find({$and : [{name : {$gt :" C"}} , {name : {$regex:"a"}}]});

db.users.find( { friends : { $all : [ "Joe" , "Bob" ] }, favorites : { $in : [ "running" , "pickles" ] } } )
here example of $all and $in operators; $all works like kind of "and" in Java, and $in works like kind of "or"
