C# Driver: Example of iterating with an IAsyncCursor<> -- ListDatabasesAsync

[kof...@gmail.com]

I'd like to list all the databases and then print their names. Can anyone supply an example of how I iterate through the result of the ListDatabasesAsync()? I'm not sure what to do with the resulting cursor.

The easiest way to iterate over the values in a cursor is to use ToListAsync, assuming that you expect all the results to fit comfortably in memory at the same time.

Code to write the names of all the databases to the Console would look something like this:

    using (var cursor = await client.ListDatabasesAsync())
    {
        var databaseDocuments = await cursor.ToListAsync();
        foreach (var databaseDocument in databaseDocuments)
        {
            Console.WriteLine(databaseDocument["name"]);
        }
    }

I ended up finding this solution:

            var cursor = await mongoClient.ListDatabasesAsync();

            await cursor.ForEachAsync(async (db) =>

            {

                string name = db.GetElement("name").Value.AsString;

                Console.WriteLine(name);

            });

        }

Thanks
