How to get document by nested value such as "brand" or "storageId" from "trigger.value".
{
"_id": "60aee243fff5082ca6fba951",
"status": "Good",
"trigger": {
"value": "{"brand":"A","storageId":"2","emplId":"3"}"
}
}
This should do the trick
db.collection.find({"trigger.value.brand":"A"})
You could add more columns by CSV. This practice is known as dot notations. More on this here

I am beginner in MongoDB and struck at a place I am trying to fetch data from nested array but is it taking so long time as data is around 50K data, also it is not much accurate data, below is schema structure please see once -
{
"_id": {
"$oid": "6001df3312ac8b33c9d26b86"
},
"City": "Los Angeles",
"State":"California",
"Details": [
{
"Name": "Shawn",
"age": "55",
"Gender": "Male",
"profession": " A science teacher with STEM",
"inDate": "2021-01-15 23:12:17",
"Cars": [
"BMW","Ford","Opel"
],
"language": "English"
},
{
"Name": "Nicole",
"age": "21",
"Gender": "Female",
"profession": "Law student",
"inDate": "2021-01-16 13:45:00",
"Cars": [
"Opel"
],
"language": "English"
}
],
"date": "2021-01-16"
}
Here I am trying to filter date with date and Details.Cars like
db.getCollection('news').find({"Details.Cars":"BMW","date":"2021-01-16"}
it is returning details of other persons too which do not have cars- BMW , Only trying to display details of person like - Shawn which have BMW or special array value and date too not - Nicole, rest should not appear but is it not happening.
Any help is appreciated. :)
A combination of $match on the top-level fields and $filter on the array elements will do what you seek.
db.foo.aggregate([
{$match: {"date":"2021-01-16"}}
,{$addFields: {"Details": {$filter: {
input: "$Details",
as: "zz",
cond: { $in: ['BMW','$$zz.Cars'] }
}}
}}
,{$match: {$expr: { $gt:[{$size:"$Details"},0] } }}
]);
Notes:
$unwind is overly expensive for what is needed here and it likely means "reassembling" the data shape later.
We use $addFields where the new field to add (Details) already exists. This effectively means "overwrite in place" and is a common idiom when filtering an array.
The second $match will eliminate docs where the date matches but not a single entry in Details.Cars is a BMW i.e. the array has been filtered down to zero length. Sometimes you want to know this info so if this is the case, do not add the final $match.
I recommend you look into using real dates i.e. ISODate instead of strings so that you can easily take advantage of MongoDB date math and date formatting functions.
Is a common mistake think that find({nested.array:value}) will return only the nested object but actually, this query return the whole object which has a nested object with desired value.
The query is returning the whole document where value BMW exists in the array Details.Cars. So, Nicole is returned too.
To solve this problem:
To get multiple elements that match the criteria you can do an aggregation stage using $unwind to separate the different objects into array and match by the criteria you want.
db.collection.aggregate([
{
"$match": { "Details.Cars": "BMW", "date": "2021-01-26" }
},
{
"$unwind": "$Details"
},
{
"$match": { "Details.Cars": "BMW" }
}
])
This query first match by the criteria to avoid $unwind over all collection.
Then $unwind to get every document and $match again to get only the documents you want.
Example here
To get only one element (for example, if you match by _id and its unique) you can use $elemMatch in this way:
db.collection.find({
"Details.Cars": "BMW",
"date": "2021-01-16"
},
{
"Details": {
"$elemMatch": {
"Cars": "BMW"
}
}
})
Example here
You can use $elemenMatch into query or projection stage. Docs here and here
Using $elemMatch into query the way is this:
db.collection.find({
"Details": {
"$elemMatch": {
"Cars": "BMW"
}
},
"date": "2021-01-16"
},
{
"Details.$": 1
})
Example here
The result is the same. In the second case you are using positional operator to return, as docs says:
The first element that matches the query condition on the array.
That is, the first element where "Cars": "BMW".
You can choose the way you want.
I need to get all documents whose e.g. "_id" field equal to another document field, e.g. "appId"
{
"_id": "xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx",
"_rev": "xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx",
"header": {
"appId": "xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx"
So what would be the query?
"selector": {
"_id": {
"$eq": header.appId
}
},
You can't do "sub queries" with Mango.
From what I see, you're trying to get all the documents listed by appId.
This could be done by using a view.
Your map function would be the following:
if(doc.header && doc.header.appId){
emit(doc.doc.header.appId,{_id: doc.header.appId});
}
The result would be a list of documents mapped by doc.header.appId.
If you query the view with ?include_docs=true, the documents would be joined to the response since we're doing a ManyToJoin join.
Is it possible to query mongodb to return array of matching document id values, without the related keys?
Please consider following 'parent' data structur:
{
"_id": ObjectId("52448e4697fb2b775cb5c3a7"),
"name": "Peter",
"children": [
{
"name": "joe"
}
]
},
{
"_id": ObjectId("52448e4697fb2b775cb5c3b6"),
"name": "Marry",
"children": [
{
"name": "joe"
}
]
}
I would to query for an array of parent _ids whose children have the name "joe"
For provided sample data, I would like the following output returned from mongo:
[ObjectId("52448e4697fb2b775cb5c3a7"), ObjectId("52448e4697fb2b775cb5c3b6")]
I know that I can query for an output like this, which also contains the keys
[{"_id": ObjectId("52448e4697fb2b775cb5c3a7")}, {"_id": ObjectId("52448e4697fb2b775cb5c3b6")}]
However I need to push above array to another document with an update operation like this:
db.statistic.update({"date": today}, {$push: {"children": [ObjectId("52448e4697fb2b775cb5c3a7"), ObjectId("52448e4697fb2b775cb5c3b6")]}}, true, false)
I would like to avoid sorting out the document structure, in case it is possible to just return an array containing the appropriate values using mongo
It should be possible by
db.coll.distinct("_id", {"children.name": "joe"})
I have a collection with nested documents in it. Each document also has an _id field.
Here's an example of a documents structure
{
"_id": ObjectId("top_level_doc"),
"title": "Cadernos",
"parent": "4fd55bbc5d1709793b000008",
"criterias": {
"0": {
"_id": ObjectId("a_nested_doc"),
"value": "caderno",
"operator": "contains",
"field": "design0"
}
}
}
I want to be able to find the nested document just by searching it's _id
With this query
{
"criterias._id" : ObjectId("a_nested_doc")
}
It returns the parent document (i just want the one that's nested).
Ideally I would do this
{
"_id" : ObjectId("a_nested_doc")
}
And it would return the document with that id (either its nested or not).
Ps. I edited the "_id" values for the sake of simplicity just for this example.
You may have to live with selecting criterias._id (without writing a wrapper around the query, at least), but you can select the document itself by simply retrieving a subset of the fields.
http://www.mongodb.org/display/DOCS/Retrieving+a+Subset+of+Fields
// The simplest case converted to your use case
db.collection.find( { criterias._id : ObjectId("a_nested_doc") }, { criterias : 1 } );
I have a document that was stored through the C# driver. It has a property of SortedList. Here's how the document looks in MongoDB:
{
"_id": {
"$oid": "47f1f704c42f56380ac80000"
},
"Things": {
"abc": {
"Color": "blue",
"Shape": "square",
}
"def": {
"Color": "red",
"Shape": "circle"
}
}
}
Here Things is the SortedList, and MyClass has properties of Color and Shape. The problem I'm having is trying to query inside Things.
Specifically, what I want to do is set the color of every MyClass that has a certain color. I can't figure out how to do it since it's indexed on what seems to be effectively a dynamic field name.
The best thing to do might be changing your document structure.
Make the "things" key point to an array of MyClass and take what you were using as they key and make it the name key of the documents in the array.
{
"_id": {
"oid": "47f1f704c42f56380ac80000"
},
"Things": [
{
"Name": "abc",
"Color": "blue",
"Shape": "square",
},
{
"Name": "def",
"Color": "red",
"Shape": "circle"
}
]
}
Once you have the document setup that way you can use the positional operator to update the first MyClass in the Things array that matches your query like this:
db.things.update( { "Things.Color": "blue" }, {$set: {"Things.$.Color": "red"} })
If you want to change all of the matching items, what you actually asked about, you probably need to do a $where query that iterates over the Things in the array.
What's 'abc' and 'def'? Never tried serializing a SortedList. If you use a List of T it will create an embedded array instead of the embedded document you have here.
You can query inside embedded documents and arrays using the dot notation, but here you'd have to do Things.abc.Color or Things.def.Color.
