Creating a mongodb capped collection in java

Question

I want to create a capped collection from Java code. I found the syntax for creating it through JavaScript, but could not find an example for Java.

Mongo mongo =         


        

Answer 1

With more recent java mongo driver (ie 3.4) the creation should slightly change:

CreateCollectionOptions opts = new CreateCollectionOptions().capped(true).sizeInBytes(1024*1024);
database.createCollection("test", opts);

Please, notice that the createCollection is not returning any value.
