Async API

Every write method has both a synchronous and an asynchronous version. Use the async versions in servers and applications where you do not want to block the event loop.

Available Async Methods

• insertAsync / insertManyAsync
• updateOneAsync / updateManyAsync
• deleteOneAsync / deleteManyAsync
• importAsync
• backupAsync (on the database instance)
• rebuildIdAsync

Example

const user = await users.insertAsync({
  name: 'Alice',
  email: 'alice@example.com'
});

await users.updateOneAsync(
  { name: 'Alice' },
  { $set: { age: 29 } }
);

await users.deleteOneAsync({ name: 'Bob' });

All async write methods are protected by an internal lock to prevent race conditions.
