Get all the Documents of the Collection using PyMongo (original) (raw)

Last Updated : 15 Jul, 2025

To get all the Documents of the Collection use find() method. The find() method takes a query object as a parameter if we want to find all documents then pass none in the find() method. To include the field in the result the value of the parameter passed should be 1, if the value is 0 then it will be excluded from the result. Note: If we pass no parameter in find() method .it works like select * in MYSQL . Sample Database: Let’s suppose the database looks like this Example 1:

Python3 `

import pymongo

establishing connection

to the database

client = pymongo.MongoClient("mongodb://localhost:27017/")

Database name

db = client["mydatabase"]

Collection name

col = db["gfg"]

if we don't want to print id then pass _id:0

for x in col.find({}, {"_id":0, "coursename": 1, "price": 1 }): print(x)

`

Output: Example 2:

Python3 `

import pymongo

establishing connection

to the database

client = pymongo.MongoClient("mongodb://localhost:27017/")

Database name

db = client["mydatabase"]

Collection name

col = db["gfg"]

if we don't want to print id then pass _id:0 and price :0

for x in col.find({}, {"coursename": 1}): print(x)

`

Output:
