Upon a transient error (a network error, errors due to replica set failover, etc.) the operation is safely retried once. If \fBretryreads\fP is false in the URI (see \fBmongoc_uri_t\fP) the retry behavior does not apply. .SH PARAMETERS .INDENT 0.0 .IP \(bu 2 \fBdatabase\fP: A \fBmongoc_database_t\fP\&. .IP \(bu 2 \fBfilter\fP: A matcher used by the server to filter the returned collections. May be \fBNULL\fP\&. .IP \(bu 2 \fBerror\fP: An optional location for a \fBbson_error_t\fP or \fBNULL\fP\&. .UNINDENT .SH ERRORS .sp Errors are propagated via the \fBerror\fP parameter. .SH RETURNS .sp A cursor where each result corresponds to the server\(aqs representation of a collection in this database. .SH AUTHOR MongoDB, Inc .SH COPYRIGHT 2017-present, MongoDB, Inc .\" Generated by docutils manpage writer. .
