Command syntax

cursor.toArray(callback)

array.toArray(callback)

cursor.toArray() → promise

array.toArray() → promise

Description

Retrieve all results and pass them as an array to the given callback.

Note: Because a feed is a cursor that never terminates, calling toArray on a feed will throw an error. See the changes command for more information on feeds.

Example: For small result sets it may be more convenient to process them at once as an array.

cursor.toArray(function(err, results) {
    if (err) throw err;
    processResults(results);
});

The equivalent query with the each command would be:

var results = []
cursor.each(function(err, row) {
    if (err) throw err;
    results.push(row);
}, function(err, results) {
    if (err) throw err;
    processResults(results);
});

An equivalent query using promises.

cursor.toArray().then(function(results) {
    processResults(results);
}).error(console.log);
