如何更新 mongodb 文档字符串的一部分？

Question

My collection looks like this:

  {
    "_id": 1,
    "integration_id": 222,
    "log_file": "/var/www/html/logs/posts/10608.log",
    "active": true,
    
  },
  {
    "_id": 2,
    "integration_id": 344,
    "log_file": "/var/www/html/logs/posts/10223.log",
    "active": true,
    
  },
  {
    "_id": 3,
    "integration_id": 124,
    "log_file": "/var/www/html/logs/posts/19178.log",
    "active": true,
    
  },
  {
    "_id": 4,
    "integration_id": 872,
    "active": true,
    
  }

I want to update all documents where log_file is present, but I want to update only the path to the log file. For example /var/www/html/logs/posts/10608.log should become /new/path/to/log/10608.log

The end result should be:

{
    "_id": 1,
    "integration_id": 222,
    "log_file": "/new/path/to/log/10608.log",
    "active": true,

  },
  {
    "_id": 2,
    "integration_id": 344,
    "log_file": "/new/path/to/log/10223.log",
    "active": true,
  }
...
...

I tried running this command from the shell:

db.collection.find({
    log_file: {
        "$ne": null
    }
}).forEach(function(d, i) {
    d.log_file.replace("/var/www/html/logs/posts/", "/new/path/to/log/");
    db.collection.save(d);
})

But nothing happens. No errors or any kind of output and nothing is updated. Can someone help?

For what it's worth, I'm using MongoDB Atlas. Just wanted to put that out there in case someone knows of any limitations on these kinds of operations they impose.

I would use $exists , also you need to set log_file to the result of the replace ( replace does not replace in place):

db.collection.find({
    log_file: {$exists: true}
}).forEach(function(d, i) {
    d.log_file = d.log_file.replace("/var/www/html/logs/posts/", "/new/path/to/log/");
    db.collection.save(d);
})

If you would like to use MongoDB aggregation. You can do something like this.

    db.collection.aggregate([
      {
        "$addFields": {
          log_file: {
            $replaceOne: {
              input: "$log_file",
              find: "/var/www/html/logs/posts/",
              replacement: "/new/path/to/log/"
            }
          }
        }
      }
    ])
