Welcome to MongoDB workshop

ParksNYC.json is located in parksnyc-tennis folder
mongoimport to import the dataset
At the terminal, use: mongoimport -d tennis -c ParksNYC --type json --drop < ParksNYC.json
//import (to be run in mongo shell) mongoimport -d tennis -c ParksNYC --type json --drop < ParksNYC.json
//Mongo 
//show dbs
//use tennis
//show collections


//first command    
db.ParksNYC.insert(

    Prop_ID : "Q900",
    Name : "Ridge Park",
    Location : "1843 Norman St.",
    EstablishedOn: "1/1/1970"
})
// as in sql if you run this command twice it will create 2 documents with same details 
// read specific dacument
db.ParksNYC.find(
{Name : "Ridge Park"
})

// read all documents
db.ParksNYC.find()
// read first document 
db.ParksNYC.findOne()
// find specific document
// find specific fields in all documents
db.ParksNYC.find({ },{  Name: 1 })
