Python MongoDB Drop Collection

Delete Collection

You can delete a table, or collection as it is called in MongoDB, by using the drop() method.

Example

Delete the "customers" collection:

Formula

import pymongo myclient = pymongo.MongoClient("mongodb://localhost:27017/")
mydb = myclient["mydatabase"]
mycol = mydb["customers"]

mycol.drop()

The drop()

method returns true if the collection was dropped successfully, and false if the collection does not exist.
