update

update() method will replace a JSON document in a dataset collection for a given KEY.

Let’s assume our JSON document contains {"name":"Jane Doe"} and the KEY is “jane.doe” and our collection name is “people.ds”.

    c_name = "people.ds"
    key = "jane.doe"
    obj = {"name":"Jane Doiel"}
    if not dataset.update(c_name, key_obj):
        print(dataset.error_message()

The update() method returns True on success or False otherwise.
