Spring Data MongoDB how to assign expiration time programmatically

Question

I couldn\'t find in any of the Spring-Data documents, what is the way to assign expiration time to a document in MongoDB?

Answer 1

Thanks, but does the whole document is expired and deleted or just the field?

According to the MongoDB Documentation https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/core/index-ttl/ The TTL index is used to remove documents from a collection.

So, the entire document will be deleted and not uniquely the field indexed.

Nb : The index has to be positioned on a Date Field, else the TTL will not be apply
