So in Mongodb (which I am relatively new to) I can do :

db.users.update({name: "bob"},{$addToSet: {thing: "more stuff"}})

to add an a new value pair to bob, in this instance a value "more stuff" for the new item "thing".

I am trying to do this in my vibe app but can't seem to figure the syntax.
I have tried multiple different things like:

string updateString = "more stuff";

userCollection.update(["name": s.userName.serializeToBson],
     [
         "$addToSet": [
             ["thing": updateString.serializeToBson ]
         ]
     ]
);

but this keeps returning

Modifiers operate on fields but we found a Array instead. For example: {$mod: {<field>: ...}} not {$addToSet: [ { thing: "more stuff" } ]

Is this something I can achieve?
And can someone guide me towards what I can do to achieve this?

You just added one pair of [] to much during the translation. This
should work:

string updateString = "more stuff";

userCollection.update(["name": s.userName],
     [
         "$addToSet": [
             "thing": updateString
         ]
     ]
);
