i have database like
"profile" : {
"firstName" : "dh",
"lastName" : "french",
"roles" : [
"applicant"
]
},
i want to find whose roles is applicant
so i try this query
var data = Meteor.users.find({
"profile.roles": { $in: ["applicant"] }
}).fetch();
but i always get 0 length data
so,which query is righ
In this case, you don't need to use $in operator. Take is easy:
Meteor.users.find({
"profile.roles": "applicant"
}).fetch();

I did this in my mongodb:
db.teams.insert({name:"Alpha team",employees:[{name:"john"},{name:"david"}]});
db.teams.insert({name:"True team",employees:[{name:"oliver"},{name:"sam"}]});
db.teams.insert({name:"Blue team",employees:[{name:"jane"},{name:"raji"}]});
db.teams.find({"employees.name":/.*o.*/});
But what I got was:
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5ddf3ca83c182cc5354a15dd"), "name" : "Alpha team", "employees" : [ { "name" : "john" }, { "name" : "david" } ] }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5ddf3ca93c182cc5354a15de"), "name" : "True team", "employees" : [ { "name" : "oliver" }, { "name" : "sam" } ] }
But what I really want is
[{"name":"john"},{"name":"oliver"}]
I'm having a hard time finding examples of this without using some kind of programmatic iterator/loop. Or examples I find return the parent document, which means I'd have to parse out the embedded array employees and do some kind of UNION statement?
Eg.
How to get embedded document in mongodb?
Retrieve only the queried element in an object array in MongoDB collection
Can someone point me in the right direction?
Please add projections to filter out the fields you don't need. Please refer the project link mongodb projections
Your find query should be constructed with the projection parameters like below:
db.teams.find({"employees.name":/.*o.*/}, {_id:0, "employees.name": 1});
This will return you:
[{"name":"john"},{"name":"oliver"}]
Can be solved with a simple aggregation pipeline.
db.teams.aggregate([
{$unwind : "$employees"},
{$match : {"employees.name":/.*o.*/}},
])
EDIT:
OP Wants to skip the parent fields. Modified query:
db.teams.aggregate([
{$unwind : "$employees"},
{$match : {"employees.name":/.*o.*/}},
{$project : {"name":"$employees.name",_id:0}}
])
Output:
{ "name" : "john" }
{ "name" : "oliver" }
I'm new to mongo and am trying to do a very simple query in this collection:
{
"_id" : ObjectId("gdrgrdgrdgdr"),
"administrators" : {
"-HGFsfes" : {
"name" : "Jose",
"phone" : NumberLong(124324)
},
"-HGFsfqs" : {
"name" : "Peter",
"phone" : "+43242342"
}
},
"countries" : {
"-dgfgrdg : {
"lang" : "en",
"name" : "Canada"
},
"-grdgrdg" : {
"lang" : "en",
"name" : "USA"
}
}
}
How do I make a query that returns the results of administrators with name like "%Jos%" for example.
What I did until now is this: db.getCollection('coll').find({ "administrators.name": /Jos/});
And variations of this. But every thing I tried returns zero results.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance!
Your mistake is that administrators is not an array, but an object with fields that are themselves objects with name field. Right query will be
{ "administrators.-HGFsfes.name": /Jos/}
Unfortunatelly this way you're only querying -HGFsfes name field, not other administrator name field.
To achieve what you want, the only thing to do is to replace administrators object by an array, so your document will look like this :
{
"administrators" : [
{
"id" : "-HGFsfes",
"name" : "Jose",
"phone" : 124324
},
{
"id" : "-HGFsfqs",
"name" : "Peter",
"phone" : "+43242342"
}
],
countries : ...
}
This way your query will work.
BUT it will return documents where at least one entry in administrators array has the matching name field. To return only administrator matching element, and not whole document, check this question and my answer for unwind/match/group aggregation pipeline.
You need to use query like this:
db.collection_name.find({})
So if your collection name is coll, then it would be:
db.coll.find({"administrators.-HGFsfes.name": /Jos/});
Look this for like query in mongo.
Also, try with regex pattern like this:
db.coll.find({"administrators..-HGFsfes.name": {"$regex":"Jos", "$options":"i"}}});
It will give you only one result because your data is not an array as below in screenshot:
If you want multiple results, then you need to restructure your data.
Ok, think i've found a better solution for you, with aggregation framework.
Run the following query on your current collection, will return you all administrators with name "LIKE" jos (case insensitive with i option) :
db.test1.aggregate(
[
{
$project: {
administrators:{ $objectToArray: "$administrators"}
}
},
{
$unwind: {
path : "$administrators"
}
},
{
$replaceRoot: {
newRoot:"$administrators"
}
},
{
$match: {
"v.name":/jos/i
}
},
]
);
Output
{
"k" : "-HGFsfes",
"v" : {
"name" : "Jose",
"phone" : NumberLong(124324)
}
}
"k" and "v" are coming from "$objectToArray" operator, you can add a $project stage to rename them (or discard if k value doesn't matter)
Not sure for Robomongo testing but in Studio 3T, formerly Robomongo, you can either copy/paste this query in Intellishell console, or copy/import in aggregation tab, (small icon 'paste from the clipboard').
Hope it helps.
db.doc.find({},{"sections.rows.Desk":1}) returns desks list but also empty rows i.e. where desk attribute doesn't exist in rows array...
I would like to eliminate empty results. How to go about it?
Thanks!
My document "doc" has the following format.
"docs":
{
"sections" : [
{
"name" : "Request Details",
"rows" : [
{
"Desk" : "IT4"
}
]
},
{
"name" : "Approval",
"rows" : [
{
"Approval" : ""
}
]
}
]
}
You will have to use the aggregation framework, particularly the $unwind operator to be able to query against individual array elements and get the ones you are after. Currently with the way .find works you will get the entire document if it matches your query.
db.docs.aggregate({$unwind: "$sections"}, {$match: {"sections.rows.Desk": {$exists: 1}}});
I want to check if user id exists inside an array field of mongodb (using meteor)
db.posts.find().pretty()
{
"_id" : "hT3ezqEyTaiihoh6Z",
"body" : "hey\n",
"authorId" : "AyJo5nf2Lkdqd6aRh",
"createdAt" : ISODate("2016-05-13T06:19:34.726Z"),
"updatedAt" : ISODate("2016-05-13T06:19:34.726Z"),
"likecount" : 0,
"already_voted" : [ ] }
db.posts.find( { _id:"hT3ezqEyTaiihoh6Z"},{ already_voted: { $in : ["AyJo5nf2Lkdqd6aRh"]} }).count()
1
It gives count value 1 , where as I am expecting it to be 0 .
Your logic is fine. Just the syntax is wrong.
db.posts
.find({
_id: "hT3ezqEyTaiihoh6Z",
already_voted: { $in: ["AyJo5nf2Lkdqd6aRh"] },
})
.count();
This should work.
You can just simply use count method. Don't need to use two operation like Find and then count.
db.posts
.count({
_id: "hT3ezqEyTaiihoh6Z",
already_voted: { $in: ["AyJo5nf2Lkdqd6aRh"] }
});
I'm trying to retrieve an object from an array in mongodb. Below is my document:
{
"_id" : ObjectId("53e9b43968425b29ecc87ffd"),
"firstname" : "john",
"lastname" : "smith",
"trips" : [
{
"submitted" : 1407824585356,
"tripCategory" : "staff",
"tripID" : "1"
},
{
"tripID" : "2",
"tripCategory" : "volunteer"
},
{
"tripID" : "3",
"tripCategory" : "individual"
}
]
}
My ultimate goal is to update only when trips.submitted is absent so I thought I could query and determine what the mongo find behavior would look like
if I used the $and query operator. So I try this:
db.users.find({
$and: [
{ "trips.tripID": "1" },
{ "trips": { $elemMatch: { submitted: { $exists: true } } } }
]
},
{ "trips.$" : 1 } //projection limits to the FIRST matching element
)
and I get this back:
{
"_id" : ObjectId("53e9b43968425b29ecc87ffd"),
"trips" : [
{
"submitted" : 1407824585356,
"tripCategory" : "staff",
"tripID" : "1"
}
]
}
Great. This is what I want. However, when I run this query:
db.users.find({
$and: [
{ "trips.tripID": "2" },
{ "trips": { $elemMatch: { submitted: { $exists: true } } } }
]
},
{ "trips.$" : 1 } //projection limits to the FIRST matching element
)
I get the same result as the first! So I know there's something odd about my query that isn't correct. But I dont know what. The only thing I've changed between the queries is "trips.tripID" : "2", which in my head, should have prompted mongo to return no results. What is wrong with my query?
If you know the array is in a specific order you can refer to a specific index in the array like this:-
db.trips.find({"trips.0.submitted" : {$exists:true}})
Or you could simply element match on both values:
db.trips.find({"trips" : {$elemMatch : {"tripID" : "1",
"submitted" : {$exists:true}
}}})
Your query, by contrast, is looking for a document where both are true, not an element within the trips field that holds for both.
The output for your query is correct. Your query asks mongo to return a document which has the given tripId and the field submitted within its trips array. The document you have provided in your question satisfies both conditions for both tripIds. You are getting the first element in the array trips because of your projection.
I have assumed you will be filtering records by the person's name and then retrieving the elements inside trips based on the field-exists criteria. The output you are expecting can be obtained using the following:
db.users.aggregate(
[
{$match:
{
"firstname" : "john",
"lastname" : "smith"
}
},
{$unwind: "$trips"},
{$match:
{
"trips.tripID": "1" ,
"trips.submitted": { $exists: true }
}
}
]
)
The aggregation pipeline works as follows. The first $match operator filters one document (in this case the document for john smith) The $unwind operator in mongodb aggregation unwinds the specified array (trips in this case), in effect denormalizing the sub-records associated with the parent records. The second $match operator filters the denormalized/unwound documents further to obtain the one required as per your query.
