Almost everything that is not a CRUD operation can be done with a database
command. Need to know the database version? There's a command for that.
Need to do aggregation? There's a command for that. Need to turn up
logging? You get the idea.

Returns database response. Every database response is always maximum one
document, which means that the result of a database command can never
exceed 16MB. The resulting document's structure depends on the command, but
most results will have the <em>ok</em> field to indicate success
or failure and <em>results</em> containing an array of each of
the resulting documents.

This example uses <a href="class.mongocode.html" class="classname">MongoCode</a>, which can also take a
scope argument. However, at the moment, MongoDB does not support using
scopes in MapReduce. If you would like to use client-side variables in the
MapReduce functions, you can add them to the global scope by using the
optional scope field with the database command. See the
<a href="http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/core/map-reduce/" class="link external">» MapReduce documentation</a>

<p class="para">
Before 1.8.0, the <em>out</em> argument was optional. If you did
not use it, MapReduce results would be written to a temporary collection,
which would be deleted when your connection was closed. In 1.8.0+, the
<em>out</em> argument is required. See the
