Definition定义

db.watch( pipeline, options )

For replica sets and sharded clusters only仅适用于复制集和分片集群

Opens a change stream cursor for a database to report on all its non-system collections.打开数据库的更改流游标,以报告其所有非system集合。

Parameter参数Type类型Description描述
pipelinearrayOptional.可选的。An Aggregation Pipeline consisting of one or more of the following aggregation stages: 由以下一个或多个聚合阶段组成的聚合管道 Specify a pipeline to filter/modify the change events output.指定用于筛选/修改更改事件输出的管道。
Starting in MongoDB 4.2, change streams will throw an exception if the change stream aggregation pipeline modifies an event's _id field. 从MongoDB 4.2开始,如果变更流聚合管道修改了事件的_id字段,则变更流将抛出异常。
optionsdocumentOptional.可选的。Additional options that modify the behavior of db.watch().修改db.watch()行为的其他选项。

The options document can contain the following fields and values:options文档可以包含以下字段和值:

Field字段Type类型Description描述

Set fullDocument to "updateLookup" to direct db.watch() to look up the most current majority-committed version of the updated document. fullDocument设置为"updateLookup"以指示db.watch()查找更新文档的最新多数提交版本。db.watch() returns a fullDocument field with the document lookup in addition to the updateDescription delta.db.watch()除了updateDescriptiondelta之外,还返回一个带有文档查找的fullDocument字段。
Starting in MongoDB 6.0, you can set fullDocument to: 从MongoDB 6.0开始,您可以将fullDocument设置为:
  • "whenAvailable" to output the document post-image, if available, after the document was inserted, replaced, or updated.用来在插入、替换或更新文档后输出文档后映像(如果后映像可用)。
  • "required" to output the document post-image after the document was inserted, replaced, or updated. Raises an error if the post-image is not available.用来在插入、替换或更新文档后输出文档后映像。如果后映像不可用,则引发错误。
fullDocumentBeforeChangestringOptional.可选的。Default is "off".默认为"off"

db.collection.watch() and Mongo.watch()

Availability可用性

Deployment部署

db.watch() is available for replica sets and sharded clusters:可用于副本集和分片集群:

  • For a replica set, you can issue db.watch() on any data-bearing member.对于副本集,可以对任何承载数据的成员发出db.watch()
  • For a sharded cluster, you must issue db.watch() on a mongos instance.对于分片集群,必须在mongos实例上发出db.watch()

Storage Engine存储引擎

You can only use db.watch() with the Wired Tiger storage engine.您只能将db.watch()Wired Tiger存储引擎一起使用。

Read Concern majority Support读取关注majority支持

Starting in MongoDB 4.2, change streams are available regardless of the "majority" read concern support; that is, read concern majority support can be either enabled (default) or disabled to use change streams.从MongoDB 4.2开始,无论"majority"读取关注支持如何,都可以使用更改流;也就是说,为了使用变更流,可以启用(默认)或禁用读取关注majority支持。

In MongoDB 4.0 and earlier, change streams are available only if "majority" read concern support is enabled (default).在MongoDB 4.0及更早版本中,只有启用了"majority"读取关注支持(默认),更改流才可用。

Behavior行为

  • You cannot run db.watch() on the admin, local, or config database.不能在adminlocalconfig数据库上运行db.watch()
  • db.watch() only notifies on data changes that have persisted to a majority of data-bearing members.仅通知已持久存在于大多数数据承载成员的数据更改。
  • The change stream cursor remains open until one of the following occurs:更改流游标保持打开状态,直到出现以下情况之一:

    • The cursor is explicitly closed.游标明确关闭。
    • An invalidate event occurs; for example, a collection drop or rename.发生失效事件;例如集合删除或重命名。
    • The connection to the MongoDB deployment is closed.与MongoDB部署的连接已关闭。
    • If the deployment is a sharded cluster, a shard removal may cause an open change stream cursor to close, and the closed change stream cursor may not be fully resumable.如果部署是分片集群,则分片移除可能会导致打开的变更流游标关闭,并且关闭的变更流游标可能无法完全恢复。
  • You can run db.watch() for a database that does not exist. 您可以对不存在的数据库运行db.watch()However, once the database is created and you drop the database, the change stream cursor closes.但是,一旦创建了数据库并删除了数据库,变更流游标就会关闭。

Resumability可恢复性

Unlike the MongoDB Drivers, mongosh does not automatically attempt to resume a change stream cursor after an error. The MongoDB drivers make one attempt to automatically resume a change stream cursor after certain errors.与MongoDB驱动程序不同,mongosh不会在出现错误后自动尝试恢复更改流游标。MongoDB驱动程序尝试在出现某些错误后自动恢复更改流游标。

db.watch() uses information stored in the oplog to produce the change event description and generate a resume token associated to that operation. 使用oplog中存储的信息来生成更改事件描述,并生成与该操作相关联的恢复令牌。If the operation identified by the resume token passed to the resumeAfter or startAfter option has already dropped off the oplog, db.watch() cannot resume the change stream.如果传递给resumeAfterstartAfter选项的resume令牌标识的操作已经从oplog中删除,则db.watch()无法恢复更改流。

See Resume a Change Stream for more information on resuming a change stream.有关恢复更改流的详细信息,请参阅恢复更改流

Note
  • You cannot use resumeAfter to resume a change stream after an invalidate event (for example, a collection drop or rename) closes the stream. 无效事件(例如,集合丢弃或重命名)关闭更改流后,不能使用resumeAfter恢复更改流。Starting in MongoDB 4.2, you can use startAfter to start a new change stream after an invalidate event.从MongoDB 4.2开始,您可以使用startAfter失效事件后启动一个新的更改流。
  • If the deployment is a sharded cluster, a shard removal may cause an open change stream cursor to close, and the closed change stream cursor may not be fully resumable.如果部署是分片集群,则分片移除可能会导致打开的变更流游标关闭,并且关闭的变更流游标可能无法完全恢复。
Note

You cannot use resumeAfter to resume a change stream after an invalidate event (for example, a collection drop or rename) closes the stream. 无效事件(例如,集合丢弃或重命名)关闭更改流后,不能使用resumeAfter恢复更改流。Starting in MongoDB 4.2, you can use startAfter to start a new change stream after an invalidate event.从MongoDB 4.2开始,您可以使用startAfter失效事件后启动一个新的更改流。

Full Document Lookup of Update Operations更新操作的完整文档查找

By default, the change stream cursor returns specific field changes/deltas for update operations. 默认情况下,更改流游标返回用于更新操作的特定字段更改/增量。You can also configure the change stream to look up and return the current majority-committed version of the changed document. 您还可以配置更改流以查找并返回更改文档的当前多数提交版本。Depending on other write operations that may have occurred between the update and the lookup, the returned document may differ significantly from the document at the time of the update.根据更新和查找之间可能发生的其他写入操作,返回的文档可能与更新时的文档有很大不同。

Depending on the number of changes applied during the update operation and the size of the full document, there is a risk that the size of the change event document for an update operation is greater than the 16MB BSON document limit. 根据更新操作期间应用的更改数量和完整文档的大小,更新操作的更改事件文档的大小可能大于16MB BSON文档限制。If this occurs, the server closes the change stream cursor and returns an error.如果发生这种情况,服务器将关闭更改流游标并返回一个错误。

Access Control访问控制

When running with access control, the user must have the find and changeStream privilege actions on the database resource. 在使用访问控制运行时,用户必须对数据库资源具有findchangeStream权限操作。That is, a user must have a role that grants the following privilege:也就是说,用户必须具有授予以下权限角色

{ resource: { db: <dbname>, collection: "" }, actions: [ "find", "changeStream"] }

The built-in read role provides the appropriate privileges.内置的read角色提供适当的权限。

Cursor Iteration游标迭代

MongoDB provides multiple ways to iterate on a cursor.MongoDB提供了多种对游标进行迭代的方法。

The cursor.hasNext() method blocks and waits for the next event. cursor.hasNext()方法阻塞并等待下一个事件。To monitor the watchCursor cursor and iterate over the events, use hasNext() like this:要监视watchCursor游标并迭代事件,请使用hasNext(),如下所示:

while (!watchCursor.isClosed()) {
if (watchCursor.hasNext()) {
firstChange = watchCursor.next();
break;
}
}

The cursor.tryNext() method is non-blocking. cursor.tryNext()方法是非阻塞的。To monitor the watchCursor cursor and iterate over the events, use tryNext() like this:要监视watchCursor游标并迭代事件,请使用tryNext(),如下所示:

while (!watchCursor.isClosed()) {
let next = watchCursor.tryNext()
while (next !== null) {
printjson(next);
next = watchCursor.tryNext()
}
}

Example实例

The following operation in mongosh opens a change stream cursor on the hr database. The returned cursor reports on data changes to all the non-system collections in that database.mongosh中的以下操作将在hr数据库上打开一个变更流游标。返回的游标报告该数据库中所有非system集合的数据更改。

watchCursor = db.getSiblingDB("hr").watch()

Iterate the cursor to check for new events. 循环游标以检查新事件。Use the cursor.isClosed() method with the cursor.tryNext() method to ensure the loop only exits if the change stream cursor is closed and there are no objects remaining in the latest batch:cursor.isClosed()方法与cursor.tryNext()方法结合使用,以确保只有在更改流游标关闭并且最新批中没有剩余对象时,循环才会退出:

while (!watchCursor.isClosed()) {
let next = watchCursor.tryNext()
while (next !== null) {
printjson(next);
next = watchCursor.tryNext()
}
}

Note

You cannot use isExhausted() with change streams.不能将isExhausted()更改流一起使用。
