Overview
--------

In this guide, you can learn how to use the {+driver-short+} to perform a **replace
operation** on a document in a MongoDB collection. A replace operation
removes all fields and values from a specified document except the
``_id`` field, and adds new fields and values that you specify. This
operations differs from an update operation, which changes only
specified fields in one or more documents.

S: Make this part of the text rather than a callout, I'm unsure if making this is a callout is necessary


To learn more about update operations, see the
:ref:`kotlin-sync-write-update` guide.

Sample Data
~~~~~~~~~~~

The examples in this guide use the ``sample_restaurants.restaurants`` collection
from the :atlas:`Atlas sample datasets </sample-data>`. To learn how to create a
free MongoDB Atlas cluster and load the sample datasets, see the
:atlas:`Get Started with Atlas </getting-started>` guide.

The documents in this collection are modeled by the following {+language+} data class:

.. literalinclude:: /includes/write/replace.kt
:start-after: start-data-class
:end-before: end-data-class
:language: kotlin
:copyable:
:dedent:

Replace Operation
-----------------

You can perform a replace operation in MongoDB by using the
``replaceOne()`` method. This method removes all fields except the
``_id`` field from the first document that matches the query filter. It
then adds the fields and values you specify to the empty document.

Required Parameters
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You must pass the following parameters to the ``replaceOne()`` method:

- **Query filter**, which matches which documents to update. To learn
more about query filters, see the :ref:`kotlin-sync-specify-query`
guide.

- **Replacement document**, which specifies the fields and values that
you want to replace the existing fields and values with.

Replace One Document
--------------------

The following example uses the ``replaceOne()`` method to replace the
fields and values of a document in which the value of the ``name`` field
value is ``"Primola Restaurant"``:

.. literalinclude:: /includes/write/replace.kt
:start-after: start-replace-one
:end-before: end-replace-one
:language: kotlin
:copyable:
:dedent:

.. important::

The values of ``_id`` fields are immutable. If your replacement document specifies
a value for the ``_id`` field, it must be the same as the ``_id`` value of the
existing document.

Q: If the id value is not the same as the existing document, what happens? An error?


Customize the Replace Operation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The ``replaceOne()`` method optionally accepts
a parameter that sets options to configure the replace operation.
If you don't specify any options, the driver performs the replace
operation with default settings.

The following table describes the setter methods that you can use to
configure an ``ReplaceOptions`` instance:

.. list-table::
:widths: 30 70
:header-rows: 1

* - Property
- Description

* - ``upsert()``
- | Specifies whether the replace operation performs an upsert operation if no
documents match the query filter. For more information, see :manual:`upsert
behavior </reference/method/db.collection.replaceOne/#upsert>`
in the {+mdb-server+} manual.
| Defaults to ``false``

* - ``bypassDocumentValidation()``
- | Specifies whether the update operation bypasses document validation. This lets you
update documents that don't meet the schema validation requirements, if any
exist. For more information about schema validation, see :manual:`Schema
Validation </core/schema-validation/#schema-validation>` in the MongoDB
Server manual.
| Defaults to ``false``.

* - ``collation()``
- | Specifies the kind of language collation to use when sorting
results. For more information, see :manual:`Collation </reference/collation/#std-label-collation>`
in the {+mdb-server+} manual.

* - ``hint()``
- | Sets the index to use when matching documents.
For more information, see the :manual:`hint statement
</reference/method/db.collection.replaceOne/#std-label-replace-one-hint>`
in the {+mdb-server+} manual.

* - ``let()``
- | Provides a map of parameter names and values to set top-level
variables for the operation. Values must be constant or closed
expressions that don't reference document fields.

* - ``comment()``
- | Sets a comment to attach to the operation.

The following code uses the ``replaceOne()`` method to match the first
document in which the value of the ``name`` field is ``"Pizza Plus"``,
then replaces the fields with new fields.

Because the ``upsert`` option is set to ``true``, the driver inserts a
new document that has the fields and values specified in the replacement
document if the query filter doesn't match any existing documents.

:end-before: end-replace-options

Return Value
~~~~~~~~~~~~

The ``replaceOne()`` method returns an ``UpdateResult``
object. You can use the following methods to access information from
an ``UpdateResult`` instance:

in the database, if the driver performed an upsert.
