查看pymongo中collection.py源码描述:
def create_index(self, keys, session=None, **kwargs): """Creates an index on this collection. Takes either a single key or a list of (key, direction) pairs. The key(s) must be an instance of :class:`basestring` (:class:`str` in python 3), and the direction(s) must be one of (:data:`~pymongo.ASCENDING`, :data:`~pymongo.DESCENDING`, :data:`~pymongo.GEO2D`, :data:`~pymongo.GEOHAYSTACK`, :data:`~pymongo.GEOSPHERE`, :data:`~pymongo.HASHED`, :data:`~pymongo.TEXT`). To create a single key ascending index on the key ``'mike'`` we just use a string argument:: >>> my_collection.create_index("mike") For a compound index on ``'mike'`` descending and ``'eliot'`` ascending we need to use a list of tuples:: >>> my_collection.create_index([("mike", pymongo.DESCENDING), ... ("eliot", pymongo.ASCENDING)]) All optional index creation parameters should be passed as keyword arguments to this method. For example:: >>> my_collection.create_index([("mike", pymongo.DESCENDING)], ... background=True) Valid options include, but are not limited to: - `name`: custom name to use for this index - if none is given, a name will be generated. - `unique`: if ``True`` creates a uniqueness constraint on the index. - `background`: if ``True`` this index should be created in the background. - `sparse`: if ``True``, omit from the index any documents that lack the indexed field. - `bucketSize`: for use with geoHaystack indexes. Number of documents to group together within a certain proximity to a given longitude and latitude. - `min`: minimum value for keys in a :data:`~pymongo.GEO2D` index. - `max`: maximum value for keys in a :data:`~pymongo.GEO2D` index. - `expireAfterSeconds`: <int> Used to create an expiring (TTL) collection. MongoDB will automatically delete documents from this collection after <int> seconds. The indexed field must be a UTC datetime or the data will not expire. - `partialFilterExpression`: A document that specifies a filter for a partial index. Requires server version >=3.2. - `collation` (optional): An instance of :class:`~pymongo.collation.Collation`. This option is only supported on MongoDB 3.4 and above. - `wildcardProjection`: Allows users to include or exclude specific field paths from a `wildcard index`_ using the { "$**" : 1} key pattern. Requires server version >= 4.2."""
