Description

oids = mongokls.objects.insert(mongo_objs_list,load_bulk=False)

Let's say I have created compound index in my db. so when I try to insert objects let say
object1
object2
object3

and both object2,object3 already present in db. In that case, object1 gets inserted successfully. but exception has been thrown. Because of that I don't know which object would be inserted.

Is there a way to know which object is inserted, when there is exception in other docs.?

Research direction

Start at the bulk insert entry point shown in the report: mongokls.objects.insert(mongo_objs_list, load_bulk=False), and trace how duplicate compound-index errors are surfaced. Determine how callers can identify which objects were inserted when later documents fail; done means the inserted subset is reliably discoverable despite the exception.
