MONGOC_COLLEC..._WRITE_CONCERN(3)

💅 MONGOC_COLLEC..._WRITE_CONCERN(3) 💅

ok so bestie, welcome to the libmongoc section of the manual — this one's all about setting the write concern on a collection, and honestly? it's giving "small function, big responsibility" energy ✨

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void
mongoc_collection_set_write_concern (
   mongoc_collection_t *collection,
   const mongoc_write_concern_t *write_concern);

that's it. that's the whole signature. void in, void out — no return value, no drama, she just does the thing 🎀

---

🫶 PARAMETERS 🫶

• collection — A mongoc_collection_t. this is the collection we're attaching the write concern to. main character of the operation, fr fr 💅
• write_concern — A mongoc_write_concern_t. the actual concern getting set. lowkey the vibe check for your writes 🌸

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so here's what's happening: she sets the write concern to use for operations on collection. that's the whole job. iconic, no notes 💖

and now for the part you actually need to know, bestie — the default write concern is MONGOC_WRITE_CONCERN_W_DEFAULT. what does that mean? it means the driver blocks awaiting basic acknowledgement of write operations from MongoDB. so your code just sits there, patiently, like a good friend waiting outside the bathroom, until Mongo says "yeah girl, got it" 🫡

and honestly? that's the correct write concern for the great majority of applications. NOT ME changing it for no reason 😭 don't be that girlie who tweaks the default and then wonders why nothing works. leave it alone unless you have an actual reason. periodt. 👑
