# --description--
|
||
|
||
`Model.remove()` is useful to delete all the documents matching given criteria.
|
||
|
||
# --instructions--
|
||
|
||
Modify the `removeManyPeople` function to delete all the people whose name is within the variable `nameToRemove`, using `Model.remove()`. Pass it to a query document with the `name` field set, and a callback.
|
||
|
||
**Note:** The `Model.remove()` doesn’t return the deleted document, but a JSON object containing the outcome of the operation, and the number of items affected. Don’t forget to pass it to the `done()` callback, since we use it in tests.
|
||
|
||
# --hints--
|
||
|
||
Deleting many items at once should succeed
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
(getUserInput) =>
|
||
$.ajax({
|
||
url: getUserInput('url') + '/_api/remove-many-people',
|
||
type: 'POST',
|
||
contentType: 'application/json',
|
||
data: JSON.stringify([
|
||
{ name: 'Mary', age: 16, favoriteFoods: ['lollipop'] },
|
||
{ name: 'Mary', age: 21, favoriteFoods: ['steak'] }
|
||
])
|
||
}).then(
|
||
(data) => {
|
||
assert.isTrue(!!data.ok, 'The mongo stats are not what expected');
|
||
assert.equal(
|
||
data.n,
|
||
2,
|
||
'The number of items affected is not what expected'
|
||
);
|
||
assert.equal(data.count, 0, 'the db items count is not what expected');
|
||
},
|
||
(xhr) => {
|
||
throw new Error(xhr.responseText);
|
||
}
|
||
);
|
||
```
