cursor.objsLeftInBatch()

Important

mongosh Method

This is a mongosh method. This is not the documentation for Node.js or other programming language specific driver methods.

In most cases, mongosh methods work the same way as the legacy mongo shell methods. However, some legacy methods are unavailable in mongosh.

For the legacy mongo shell documentation, refer to the documentation for the corresponding MongoDB Server release:

• mongo shell v4.4

• mongo shell v4.2

• mongo shell v4.0

For MongoDB API drivers, refer to the language specific MongoDB driver documentation.

cursor.objsLeftInBatch() returns the number of documents remaining in the current batch.

The MongoDB instance returns response in batches. To retrieve all the documents from a cursor may require multiple batch responses from the MongoDB instance. When there are no more documents remaining in the current batch, the cursor will retrieve another batch to get more documents until the cursor exhausts.
