// Package mongo provides a MongoDB Driver API for Go.
//
// Basic usage of the driver starts with creating a Client from a connection
// string. To do so, call the NewClient and Connect functions:
//
// 		client, err := NewClient(options.Client().ApplyURI("mongodb://foo:bar@localhost:27017"))
// 		if err != nil { return err }
// 		ctx, cancel := context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), 20*time.Second)
// 		defer cancel()
// 		err = client.Connect(ctx)
// 		if err != nil { return err }
//
// This will create a new client and start monitoring the MongoDB server on localhost.
// The Database and Collection types can be used to access the database:
//
//    collection := client.Database("baz").Collection("qux")
//
// A Collection can be used to query the database or insert documents:
//
//    res, err := collection.InsertOne(context.Background(), bson.M{"hello": "world"})
//    if err != nil { return err }
//    id := res.InsertedID
//
// Several methods return a cursor, which can be used like this:
//
//    cur, err := collection.Find(context.Background(), bson.D{})
//    if err != nil { log.Fatal(err) }
//    defer cur.Close(context.Background())
//    for cur.Next(context.Background()) {
//       raw, err := cur.DecodeBytes()
//       if err != nil { log.Fatal(err) }
//       // do something with elem....
//    }
//    if err := cur.Err(); err != nil {
//    		return err
//    }
//
// Methods that only return a single document will return a *SingleResult, which works
// like a *sql.Row:
//
// 	  result := struct{
// 	  	Foo string
// 	  	Bar int32
// 	  }{}
//    filter := bson.D{{"hello", "world"}}
//    err := collection.FindOne(context.Background(), filter).Decode(&result)
//    if err != nil { return err }
//    // do something with result...
//
// All Client, Collection, and Database methods that take parameters of type interface{}
// will return ErrNilDocument if nil is passed in for an interface{}.
//
// Additional examples can be found under the examples directory in the driver's repository and
// on the MongoDB website.
