MondoDB $locate - mongodb

I have two collections, a policy collection, and a person collection
The Policy looks something like this:
[{
"_id": {
"$oid": "61169375e2145bbfd73dedbe"
},
"PolicyNumber": {
"Identifier": "A56B096A",
"Sequence": 1
},
"Persons": {
"61169362982ac4e8ae2ad768": null,
"60de07a8dc031e91ac5f35c0": null
},
}]
The Person:
[{
"_id": {
"$oid": "5f0c6d087937e0000145e5c3"
},
"UniqueCode": "PER0004",
"PassportExpiryDate": null,
"Age": 35,
"Gender": "M",
"Nationality": null,
"LanguageCode": null,
"Name": "NAME",
"Surname": "SURNAME",
"Initials": null,
"ContactDetails": {
"Addresses": {
"physicalAddress": {
"AddressType": null,
"UnitNumber": null,
"UnitName": null,
"PoBox": null,
"StreetNumber": null,
"StreetName": null,
"Suburb": null,
"Town": null,
"PostalCode": "7100",
"Country": null,
"Coordinates": null,
"InitialCenter": null
}
},
"EmailAddresses": {
"emailAddress": "EMAIL#EMAIL.COM"
},
"TelephoneNumbers": {
"cellphone": "0000000000"
},
"PreferredCommunicationMethod": "SMS"
},
"BankingDetails": [],
"Statistics": null,
"Imported": false,
"ImportReference": null
}]
I have tried various options with $locate, $let, $convert, etc to enable me to join the two collections on 'Persons' using the Policy collections as the entry point.
I know this is probably fundamentals, but I'm n SQL guy who got dumped with a MongoDB conversion.
Any assistance will be appreciated

Query complex JSON in Postgres

I have a json column named "Payload" with a complex json structure as below-
{
"Number": "",
"Status": "",
"Parties": [
{
"BeCode": "SHANGMAG",
"PartyCode": "CNSHANGMAGVDR",
},
{
"BeCode": "FREEMAN",
"PartyCode": "CNFREEMANVDR",
}
],
"ContactName": "test",
"Type": "",
"Legs": [
{
"Name": "",
"ELocation": {
"City": "Enns",
"State": null,
"Country": "Austria",
},
"Socation": {
"City": "Buenos Aires",
"State": null,
"Country": "Argentina",
},
"Transport": 1
},
{
"Name": "84nbt",
"ELocation": {
"City": "Linz",
"State": null,
"Country": "Austria",
},
"SLocation": {
"City": "Enns",
"State": null,
"Country": "Austria",
},
"Transport": 2
}
]
"Bookings": [
{
"BookingNo": "",
"Status": "",
"Id": ""
}
]
}
Now I need to query all the rows where SLocation is equal to ELocation.
I was able to get the "Legs" part row vise using following query -
select payload->'Legs'
from public.shipping_instruction
However, If I dig deep into the json to get the SLocation and ELocation, the query doesnt exceute.
I am looking for something like the one below-
select payload->'Legs'
from public.shipping_instruction where
payload->'Legs'->'ELocation'->'City' =
payload->'Legs'->'SLocation'->'City'
But then here the Legs have multiple SLocation and ELocation how do I handle it?
select "Number",
x."Status" as Status,
"BeCode",
"PartyCode",
"ContactName",
"Type",
"Name",
"Transport",
e_city,
e_state,
e_country,

s_state,
s_country,
"BookingNo",
b."Status" as BookingStatus,
"Id"

Extract json key/value pairs with postgresql/snowflake, where value is not null/blank

I have a field called "filter" with json array like:
[
{
"after":"2021-10-14T00:00:00",
"column":"createddate",
"from":null,
"gt":null,
"gte":null,
"id":"928d57b0",
"lt":null,
"lte":null,
"not":null,
"prior":null,
"to":null,
"value":null
},
{
"after":null,
"column":"last_coach_date",
"from":"",
"gt":null,
"gte":null,
"id":"01704cdd",
"lt":null,
"lte":null,
"not":null,
"prior":null,
"to":"",
"value":null
}
]
I'm trying to extract key/value pairs where value is not null/blank and create another field for it.
Maybe to something like this or one long string:
{ "after": "2021-10-14T00:00:00", "column": "createddate", "id": "928d57b0"}, {"column": "last_coach_date","id": "01704cdd"} AS filter_value
Using FLATTEN and OBJECT_AGG:
CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE t(col VARIANT)
AS
SELECT PARSE_JSON('[ { "after": "2021-10-14T00:00:00", "column": "createddate", "from": null, "gt": null, "gte": null, "id": "928d57b0", "lt": null, "lte": null, "not": null, "prior": null, "to": null, "value": null }, { "after": null, "column": "last_coach_date", "from": "", "gt": null, "gte": null, "id": "01704cdd", "lt": null, "lte": null, "not": null, "prior": null, "to": "", "value": null }]'
);
Query:
SELECT s.index, OBJECT_AGG(s2.key, s2.value) AS output
FROM t
,LATERAL FLATTEN(input => col) s
,LATERAL FLATTEN(input => s.value) s2
WHERE NOT IS_NULL_VALUE(s2.value) AND s2.value::TEXT != ''
GROUP BY s.INDEX;
Output:
For Postgres:
select (select jsonb_object_agg(key, value)
from jsonb_array_elements(t.filter) as x(item)
cross join jsonb_each_text(x.item) as e(key,value)
where e.value <> '')
from the_table t;
So very similar to Lukasz solution, but OBJECT_AGG will filter out any NULL values, so if you cast to ::text the nulls become real nulls, and are filtered out, so the WHERE clause is not required:
WITH data_table AS(
SELECT parse_json('[ { "after": "2021-10-14T00:00:00", "column": "createddate", "from": null, "gt": null, "gte": null, "id": "928d57b0", "lt": null, "lte": null, "not": null, "prior": null, "to": null, "value": null }, { "after": null, "column": "last_coach_date", "from": "", "gt": null, "gte": null, "id": "01704cdd", "lt": null, "lte": null, "not": null, "prior": null, "to": "", "value": null } ]') as json
)
SELECT f.index as batch_id,
OBJECT_AGG(p.key, NULLIF(p.value::text,'')::variant) as obj
FROM data_table t,
TABLE(FLATTEN(input=>t.json)) as f,
TABLE(FLATTEN(input=>f.value)) as p
GROUP BY 1
ORDER BY 1
;
gives:
BATCH_ID
OBJ
0
{ "after": "2021-10-14T00:00:00", "column": "createddate", "id": "928d57b0" }
1
{ "column": "last_coach_date", "id": "01704cdd" }
It's not clear from the question if you want 2 rows, or a single value, the latter can be had by adding another layer of aggregation via ARRAY_AGG:
WITH data_table AS(
SELECT parse_json('[ { "after": "2021-10-14T00:00:00", "column": "createddate", "from": null, "gt": null, "gte": null, "id": "928d57b0", "lt": null, "lte": null, "not": null, "prior": null, "to": null, "value": null }, { "after": null, "column": "last_coach_date", "from": "", "gt": null, "gte": null, "id": "01704cdd", "lt": null, "lte": null, "not": null, "prior": null, "to": "", "value": null } ]') as json
)
SELECT array_agg(obj) as single_answer
FROM (
SELECT f.index as batch_id,
OBJECT_AGG(p.key, NULLIF(p.value::text,'')::variant) as obj
FROM data_table t,
TABLE(FLATTEN(input=>t.json)) as f,
TABLE(FLATTEN(input=>f.value)) as p
GROUP BY 1
)
;
gives:
SINGLE_ANSWER
[ { "after": "2021-10-14T00:00:00", "column": "createddate", "id": "928d57b0" }, { "column": "last_coach_date", "id": "01704cdd" } ]

how to return just one object from an array that is inside a collection with the mongo_dart

I currently have this collection below, and I need a way to return only one item from an internal array (an item from the "pontosGastronomicos" array), only the object, I don't have much experience with mongodb. I'm developing an application and AngularDart and the backend in Angel, application is already working, I just need an optimized way to do this.

You are using Pre 4.6.2 The variable in the ANY clause needs to be same as the variable in the CREATE INDEX (i.e item ,v )

Using Mongoose with a rich document?

I'm working on a prototype that will be used for reporting (read only) where the record is a very rich set of objects embedded into a single document. Essentially the document structure is this (edited for brevity):

given a structure in that format, I'm unsure the best path forward using Mongoose as the ORM. Again, this is read-only, so I was it would seem that creating a nested schema would work, but the mapping itself seems tedious to say the least. Is there a better/different option available for something with embedded?
Interesting. First, I would think if I need all the document and its embedded subdocuments fields. You said it will be read-only, so will each call needs the entire document?
If not, I recommend taking a look at the mongo drivers (node.js, .NET, Python, etc.) and using their aggregation pipelines to simplify the document if possible.
If you're using Mongoose, you will probably end up with two or three Schemas, and with schemas inside a list. Mongoose docs e.g.
var surveySchema = new Schema(
{ "type" : string,
"data" : [dataSchema],
"invite_code" : string,
"end_date" : DateTime,
"created_at" : DateTime,
"url" : string,
"answers" : { "data": [answersSchema]},
"modified_at" : DateTime,
"start_date" : DateTime,
"invite_date" : DateTime,
"contact" : [ContactSchema],
"referring_source" : string
});
Or, you can use mongoose references and build your own schema depending on what data you need to use for your report. A simple example:
var surveySchema = {
"id" : { type: Schema.Types.ObjectId }
"description" : { type: string , ref: dataSchema },
"contactSchema" : { type: string , ref: contactSchema }
}
