okay bestie, this little page is MONGOC_BULKWR...EOPTS_SET_HINT(3) from the libmongoc manual, and it’s here to explain one very specific “please use THIS index” moment 💅✨

💖 SYNOPSIS 💖

void
mongoc_bulkwrite_updateoneopts_set_hint (mongoc_bulkwrite_updateoneopts_t *self, const bson_value_t *hint);

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So this function specifies the index to use 🔥. You get to specify either the index name as a string or the index key pattern, bestie.

If it’s specified, then the query system will only consider plans using the hinted index 👑. That’s the whole vibe: you’re telling the query system “use this index, iykyk” and it’s literally only gonna look at plans with that hinted index 🎀.

You’re working with:

  • self — the mongoc_bulkwrite_updateoneopts_t * bestie in question 🫶
  • hint — the const bson_value_t * carrying your index name as a string or your index key pattern ✨
