Updating functionality?

[DanielWeitzenfeld]

Am I right that RMongo currently doesn't support document updating?
Do you plan to add that functionality?
Thanks!

That's correct, RMongo doesn't yet support document updating.

I can add it in the future. Any patch submissions are welcomed are well!

I have to say, this is a core feature that would be very useful. In practice it is not reasonable/professional to delete and insert back

I'll be happy to review and assist with any pull requests

How difficult is it to provide in your package RMongo with a simple wrapper of the java API collection.update() ?
As you have already the structure to call the java API, it might be a quick fix?
Basically I think people would like to be able to do any of the examples on this page: http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/reference/method/db.collection.update/

I am happy to help but I don't know well enough your package to decide where to start.

To add this fix, you'll need to add the backing function in the scala code
and then the R code.

It should be mostly copy and paste with a few modifications.

To run scala tests:
mvn test

To run the R tests(run from parent directory):
``R CMD check RMongo`
