How to create indexes in MongoDB via .NET

Question

I\'ve programmatically created a new document collection using the MongoDB C# driver.

At this point I want to create and build indexes programmatically. How can I do

Answer 1

Something like this should do:

var server = MongoServer.Create("mongodb://localhost");
var db = server.GetDatabase("myapp");

var users = db.GetCollection("users");

users.EnsureIndex(new IndexKeysBuilder().Ascending("EmailAddress"));

Please see the following bits in the documentation:
