Endpoints for deleting items

In Node-RED, add two new endpoints:

1. /deleteCollection
   Delete information from the "imageCollection" collection in MongoDB based on the ID.

Here is the format of the endpoint. In the "http in" node, select the PUT method.

• function

msg.query = {
    _id: objectid(msg.payload._id)
}

msg.payload = {
    $set: {
        deleted: true
    }
}

return msg;

In the function node, add the "objectid" library.

Об'єкт, який потрібно видалити буде знайдено по _id і йому буде оновлено поле deleted на true.

У вузлі mongoDB out пишемо назву колекцію, яку потрібно оновити, обираємо operation update та Update all matching documents.

The object that needs to be deleted will be found by its _id, and the deleted field will be updated to true for further filtering. This is done to preserve the data.

In the mongodb out node, specify the name of the collection you want to update, select the operation "update," and choose "Update all matching documents."
