How to get from a list<T> in C# from a document in MongoDB to

Question

Here is my code:

    using MongoDB.Bson;
    using MongoDB.Driver;

    public List<Teacher> GetTeachersFromMongoDB()
    {
        client = new MongoClient();
        database = client.GetDatabase("SchoolManagement");
        var collection = database.GetCollection<BsonDocument>("ListTeachers");
        var document = collection.Find(new BsonDocument()).ToList();
        var cursor = collection.Find(new BsonDocument()).ToCursor();
        return teachers;
    }

And i want to do something to return value type List for this function. Please help me!!! Thank you :)

Answer 1

I assume you have a Teacher object, so I think you should use

var collection = database.GetCollection<Teacher>("ListTeachers");

instead of

var collection = database.GetCollection<BsonDocument>("ListTeachers");

And I don't get, where your return value comes from, but if you return 'document' it should work
