I have a collection with the documents like this with 25 documents
{
"_id" : ObjectId("<some id>"),
"code" : "1111",
"myArray" : ["Choocolate"]
},
{
"_id" : ObjectId("<some id>"),
"code" : "2222"
"myArray" : ["Choocolate"]
},
{
"_id" : ObjectId("<some id>"),
"code" : "3333",
"myArray" : ["Choocolate"]
},
{
"_id" : ObjectId("<some id>"),
"code" : "4444",
"myArray" : ["Choocolate"]
}
and so on
I want to add an item to an myArray only fore certain documents based on a condition. so I tried this
db.mycollection.update
({ "code":
{
"$nin": ["1111","2222"]
},
{
$push: { "myArray": "Coffee" }
}
)
I expect 'Coffee' to be added to myArray in all documents except the ones with code 1111 or 2222. But only it is added to an array only in one document.
How to I add an item to anArray in multiple documents based on a condition against a field in a document?
Based on the documentation update updates only a single element:
By default, the db.collection.update() method updates a single document. Include the option multi: true to update all documents that match the query criteria.
https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/method/db.collection.update/
To update more use updateMany:

Here is my news document structure
{
"_id" : ObjectId("5bff0903bd9a221229c7c9b2"),
"title" : "Test Page",
"desc" : "efdfr",
"mediaset_list" : [
{
"_id" : ObjectId("5bfeff94bd9a221229c7c9ae"),
"medias" : [
{
"_id" : ObjectId("5bfeff83bd9a221229c7c9ac"),
"file_type" : "png",
"file" : "https://aws.com/gg.jpg",

"file_type" : "mov",
"file" : "https://aws.com/gg.mov",
"file_name" : "abcd.mov"
}
]
}

The queries that i've tried are given below
Approach 1
db.news.find_and_modify({},{'$pull': {"mediaset_list": {"medias": {"$elemMatch" : {"_id": ObjectId('5bfeff83bd9a221229c7c9ac')}} }}})
Approach 2
db.news.update({},{'$pull': {"mediaset_list.$.medias": {"_id": ObjectId('5bfeff83bd9a221229c7c9ac')}} })
Issue we are facing
The above queries are removing entire elements inside 'mediaset_list' . But i only want to remove the element inside 'medias' matching object ID.
Since you have two nested arrays you have to use arrayFilters to indicate which element of outer array should be modified, try:
db.news.update({ _id: ObjectId("5bff0903bd9a221229c7c9b2") },
{ $pull: { "mediaset_list.$[item].medias": { _id: ObjectId("5bfeff83bd9a221229c7c9ad") } } },
{ arrayFilters: [ { "item._id": ObjectId("5bfeff94bd9a221229c7c9ae") } ] })
So item is used here as a placeholder which will be used by MongoDB to determine which element of mediaset_list needs to be modified and the condition for this placeholder is defined inside arrayFilters. Then you can use $pull and specify another condition for inner array to determine which element should be removed.
From #micki's mongo shell query (Answer above) , This is the pymongo syntax which will update all news document with that media id .
db.news.update_many({},
{
"$pull":
{ "mediaset_list.$[item].medias": { "_id": ObjectId("5bfeff83bd9a221229c7c9ad") } } ,
},
array_filters=[{ "item._id": ObjectId("5bfeff94bd9a221229c7c9ae")}],

i have some collections for our project.
Casts collection contains movie casts
Contents collection contains movie contents
i want to run aggregate lookup for get information about movie casts with position type.
i removed collections details unnecessary fields.
Casts details:
{
"_id" : ObjectId("5a6cf47415621604942386cd"),
"fa_name" : "",
"en_name" : "Ehsan",
"fa_bio" : "",
"en_bio" : ""
}
Contents details:
{
"_id" : ObjectId("5a6b8b734f1408137f79e2cc"),
"casts" : [
{
"_id" : ObjectId("5a6cf47415621604942386cd"),
"fa_fictionName" : "",
"en_fictionName" : "Ehsan2",
"positionType" : {
"id" : 3,
"fa_name" : "",
"en_name" : "Director"
}
},
{
"_id" : ObjectId("5a6cf47415621604942386cd"),
"fa_fictionName" : "",
"en_fictionName" : "Ehsan1",
"positionType" : {
"id" : 3,
"fa_name" : "",
"en_name" : "Writers"
}
}
],
"status" : 0,
"created" : Timestamp(1516997542, 4),
"updated" : Timestamp(1516997542, 5)
}
when i run aggregate lookup with bellow query, in new generated lookup array only one casts contents If in accordance with above casts array value aggregate lookup should return two casts content with two type. in casts array value exists two type of casts, 1) writers and directors. but returned director casts content. _casts should contains two object not one object!
aggregate lookup query:
{$lookup:{from:"casts",localField:"casts._id",foreignField:"_id",as:"_casts"}}
result:
{
"_id" : ObjectId("5a6b8b734f1408137f79e2cc"),
"casts" : [
{

"updated" : Timestamp(1516997542, 5)
}
EDIT-1
finally my problem is solved. i have only one problem with this query, this query doesn't show root document fields. finally solve this problem. finally query exists in EDIT-2.
query:
db.contents.aggregate([
{"$unwind":"$casts"},
{"$lookup":{"from":"casts","localField":"casts._id","foreignField":"_id","as":"casts.info"}},
{"$unwind":"$casts.info"},
{"$group":{"_id":"$_id", "casts":{"$push":"$casts"}}},
])
EDIT-2
db.contents.aggregate([
{"$unwind":"$casts"},
{"$lookup":{"from":"casts","localField":"casts._id","foreignField":"_id","as":"casts.info"}},
{"$unwind":"$casts.info"},
{$group:{"_id":"$_id", "data":{"$first":"$$ROOT"}, "casts":{"$push":"$casts"}}},
{$replaceRoot:{"newRoot":{"$mergeObjects":["$data",{"casts":"$casts"}]}}},
{$project:{"casts":0}}
]).pretty()
This is expected behavior.
From the docs,
If your localField is an array, you may want to add an $unwind stage
to your pipeline. Otherwise, the equality condition between the
localField and foreignField is foreignField: { $in: [
localField.elem1, localField.elem2, ... ] }.
So to join each local field array element with foreign field element you have to $unwind the local array.
db.content.aggregate([
{"$unwind":"$casts"},
{"$lookup":{"from":"casts","localField":"casts._id","foreignField":"_id","as":"_casts"}}
])
Vendor Collection
Items Collection
db.items.aggregate([
{ $match:
{"item_id":{$eq:"I001"}}
},
{
$lookup:{
from:"vendor",
localField:"vendor_id",
foreignField:"vendor_id",
as:"vendor_details"
}
},
{
$unwind:"$vendor_details"
},
{
$project:{
"_id":0,
"vendor_id":0,
"vendor_details.vendor_company_description":0,
"vendor_details._id":0,
"vendor_details.country":0,
"vendor_details.city":0,
"vendor_details.website":0
}
}
]);
Output
Your Casts collection shows only 1 document. Your Contents collection, likewise, shows only 1 document.
This is 1 to 1 - not 1 to 2. Aggregate is working as designed.
The Contents document has 2 "casts." These 2 casts are sub-documents. Work with those as sub-documents, or re-design your collections. I don't like using sub-documents unless I know I will not need to use them as look-ups or join on them.
I would suggest you re-design your collection.
Your Contents collection (it makes me think of "Movies") could look like this:
_id
title
releaseDate
genre
etc.
You can create a MovieCasts collection like this:
_id
movieId (this is _id from Contents collection, above)
castId (this is _id from Casts collection, below)
Casts
_id
name
age
etc.
Let's say i want to return the latest inserted document from the subdocument. I want to be able to return the second record within the tags array w/ the _id of 54a1845def7572cd0e3fe288
So I far I have this query but it returns all values in the tags array.
db.modules.findOne({_id:"ui","svn_branches.branch":"Rocky"},{"svn_branches.$":1})
Mongodb array:
{
"_id" : "ui",
"svn_branches" : [
{
"updated_at" : ISODate("2013-06-12T20:48:17.297Z"),
"branch" : "Rocky",
"revision" : 0,
"tags" : [
{
"_id" : ObjectId("54a178b8ef7572d30e3fe288"),
"commit_message" : "r277 | ssmith | 2015-02-11 17:43:23 -0400 (Wed, 11 Feb 2015)",
"latest_tag" : "20150218r1_6.32_abc",
"revision" : 1,
"tag_revision_number" : "280",
"updated_at" : ISODate("2015-02-18T19:54:54.062Z")
},
{
"_id" : ObjectId("54a1845def7572cd0e3fe288"),
"commit_message" : "r271 | sam | 2dskjh\n",
"latest_tag" : "20150218r2_6.32_abc",
"revision" : 2,
"tag_revision_number" : "281",
"updated_at" : ISODate("2015-02-19T19:54:54.062Z")
}
]
}
]
}
Simple Solution
Let say we have a category as a document and items as a subdocument.
// find document from collection
const category = await Category.findOne({ _id:'$hec453d235xhHe4Y' });
// fetch last index of sub-document
const lastItemIndex = category.items.length - 1;
// here is the last item of sub-document
console.log(category.items[lastItemIndex]);
as mongodb inserted the latest sub-document at last index, so we need to find the last index for the latest sub-doc.
Queries in MongoDB do not return subdocuments (or, as in your case, subdocuments of subdocuments). They match and return the the documents in the collection. The documents' shape can be changed a bit by projection, but it's limited. If you want to find the latest tag commonly, you probably want to make your documents represent tags. Having an array in an array is generally a bad idea in MongoDB, too.
If this is an uncommon operation, and one that doesn't need to be particularly fast, you can use an aggregation:
db.modules.aggregate([
{ "$unwind" : "$svn_branches" },
{ "$unwind" : "$svn_branches.tags" },
{ "$sort" : { "svn_branches.tags.updated_at" : -1 } },
{ "$group" : { "_id" : "$_id", "latest_tag" : { "$first" : "$svn_branches.tags" } } }
])
I needed to find the last entry of subdocuments and I managed to make it to work with the $slice projection operator: mondodb.com > $slice (projection)
db.modules.find({_id:'ui', 'svn_branches.branch':'Rocky'},
{ 'svn_branches.tags': {$slice:-1} } )
I had only one level, if this doesn't work, please let me know.
I have a collection :
gStats : {
"_id" : "id1",
"criteria" : ["key1":"value1", "key2":"value2"],
"groups" : [
{"id":"XXXX", "visited":100, "liked":200},
{"id":"YYYY", "visited":30, "liked":400}
]
}
I want to be able to update a document of the stats Array of a given array of criteria (exact match).
I try to do this on 2 steps :
Pull the stat document from the array of a given "id" :
db.gStats.update({
"criteria" : {$size : 2},
"criteria" : {$all : [{"key1" : "2096955"},{"value1" : "2015610"}]}
},
{
$pull : {groups : {"id" : "XXXX"}}
}
)
Push the new document
db.gStats.findAndModify({
query : {
"criteria" : {$size : 2},
"criteria" : {$all : [{"key1" : "2015610"}, {"key2" : "2096955"}]}
},
update : {
$push : {groups : {"id" : "XXXX", "visited" : 29, "liked" : 144}}
},
upsert : true
})
The Pull query works perfect.
The Push query gives an error :
2014-12-13T15:12:58.571+0100 findAndModifyFailed failed: {
"value" : null,
"errmsg" : "exception: Cannot create base during insert of update. Cause
d by :ConflictingUpdateOperators Cannot update 'criteria' and 'criteria' at the
same time",
"code" : 12,
"ok" : 0
} at src/mongo/shell/collection.js:614
Neither query is working in reality. You cannot use a key name like "criteria" more than once unless under an operator such and $and. You are also specifying different fields (i.e groups) and querying elements that do not exist in your sample document.
So hard to tell what you really want to do here. But the error is essentially caused by the first issue I mentioned, with a little something extra. So really your { "$size": 2 } condition is being ignored and only the second condition is applied.
A valid query form should look like this:
query: {
"$and": [
{ "criteria" : { "$size" : 2 } },
{ "criteria" : { "$all": [{ "key1": "2015610" }, { "key2": "2096955" }] } }
]
}
As each set of conditions is specified within the array provided by $and the document structure of the query is valid and does not have a hash-key name overwriting the other. That's the proper way to write your two conditions, but there is a trick to making this work where the "upsert" is failing due to those conditions not matching a document. We need to overwrite what is happening when it tries to apply the $all arguments on creation:
update: {
"$setOnInsert": {
"criteria" : [{ "key1": "2015610" }, { "key2": "2096955" }]
},
"$push": { "stats": { "id": "XXXX", "visited": 29, "liked": 144 } }
}
That uses $setOnInsert so that when the "upsert" is applied and a new document created the conditions specified here rather than using the field values set in the query portion of the statement are used instead.
Of course, if what you are really looking for is truly an exact match of the content in the array, then just use that for the query instead:
query: {
"criteria" : [{ "key1": "2015610" }, { "key2": "2096955" }]
}
Then MongoDB will be happy to apply those values when a new document is created and does not get confused on how to interpret the $all expression.
I have a collection that stored information about devices like the following:
/* 1 */
{
"_id" : {
"startDate" : "2012-12-20",
"endDate" : "2012-12-30",
"dimensions" : ["manufacturer", "model"],
"metrics" : ["deviceCount"]
},
"data" : {
"results" : "1"
}
}
/* 2 */
{
"_id" : {
"startDate" : "2012-12-20",
"endDate" : "2012-12-30",
"dimensions" : ["manufacturer", "model"],
"metrics" : ["deviceCount", "noOfUsers"]
},
"data" : {
"results" : "2"
}
}
/* 3 */
{
"_id" : {
"dimensions" : ["manufacturer", "model"],
"metrics" : ["deviceCount", "noOfUsers"]
},
"data" : {
"results" : "3"
}
}
And I am trying to query the documents using the _id field which will be unique. The problem I am having is that when I query for all the different attributes as in:
db.collection.find({$and: [{"_id.dimensions":{ $all: ["manufacturer","model"], $size: 2}}, {"_id.metrics": { $all:["noOfUsers","deviceCount"], $size: 2}}]});
This matches 2 and 3 documents (I don't care about the order of the attributes values), but I would like to only get 3 back. How can I say that there should not be any other attributes to _id than those that I specify in the search query?
Please advise. Thanks.
Unfortunately, I think the closest you can get to narrowing your query results to just unordered _id.dimensions and unordered _id.metrics requires you to know the other possible fields in the _id subdocument field, eg. startDate and endDate.
db.collection.find({$and: [
{"_id.dimensions":{ $all: ["manufacturer","model"], $size: 2}},
{"_id.metrics": { $all:["noOfUsers","deviceCount"], $size: 2}},
{"_id.startDate":{$exists:false}},
{"_id.endDate":{$exists:false}}
]});
If you don't know the set of possible fields in _id, then the other possible solution would be to specify the exact _id that you want, eg.
db.collection.find({"_id" : {
"dimensions" : ["manufacturer", "model"],
"metrics" : ["deviceCount", "noOfUsers"]
}})
but this means that the order of _id.dimensions and _id.metrics is significant. This last query does a document match on exact BSON representation of _id.
