MongoDB update nested array

Question

I have a simple structure in mongodb, with nested array. How can I update searched value? I\'ve seen examples using numbers something like this:

invited.0.us         


        

Answer 1

update({ invited.key : 84026702 }, { invited.$.used : true });

This basically does what you wanna and should work nicely. Look into positional operators in mongodb: http://www.mongodb.org/display/DOCS/Updating#Updating-The%24positionaloperator

Or in PHP (as your question is tagged) you can do:

$mongo->collection->update(array('invited.key' => 84026702), array('invited.$.used' => true));
