I have a mongo DB collection that looks something like this:
{
{
_id: objectId('aabbccddeeff'),
objectName: 'MyFirstObject',
objectLength: 0xDEADBEEF,
objectSource: 'Source1',
accessCounter: {
'firstLocationCode' : 283,
'secondLocationCode' : 543,
'ThirdLocationCode' : 564,
'FourthLocationCode' : 12,
}
}
...
}
Now, assuming that this is not the only record in the collection and that most/all of the documents contain the accessCounter subdocument/field how will I go with selecting the x first documents where I have the most access from a specific location.
A sample "query" will be something like:
"Select the first 10 documents From myCollection where the accessCounter.firstLocationCode are the highest"
So a sample result will be X documents where the accessCounter. will be the greatest is the database.
Thank your for taking the time to read my question.
No need for an aggregation, that is a basic query:
db.collection.find().sort({"accessCounter.firstLocation":-1}).limit(10)
In order to speed this up, you should create a subdocument index on accessCounter first:
db.collection.ensureIndex({'accessCounter':-1})
assuming the you want to do the same query for all locations. In case you only want to query firstLocation, create the index on accessCounter.firstLocation.
You can speed this up further in case you only need the accessCounter value by making this a so called covered query, a query of which the values to return come from the index itself. For example, when you have the subdocument indexed and you query for the top secondLocations, you should be able to do a covered query with:
db.collection.find({},{_id:0,"accessCounter.secondLocation":1})
.sort("accessCounter.secondLocation":-1).limit(10)
which translates to "Get all documents ('{}'), don't return the _id field as you do by default ('_id:0'), get only the 'accessCounter.secondLocation' field ('accessCounter.secondLocation:1'). Sort the returned values in descending order and give me the first ten."

I am a noob at MongoDB. I want to create an index for my collection (Profile) based on documents that look like this:
'_id': ObjectId,
'country: France,
'userName: Tim,
'start':[{'key':category1,'value': 300},{'key':category2,'value': 3600},
.....
I am going for a query that looks like this:
import 'package:mongo_dart/mongo_dart.dart' as c;
......
await MongoDB.profile.find(c.where.eq('country', France)
.eq('start.key':'category1').lte('start.value',200).gte('start.value',2000).ne('userName',Tim);
The above solution gives me an intersection of start.key documents and start.value documents but what I want is to output documents that have the start.key: category1 then use the resulting documents to query for start.value within a certain range.
Picture form: (Blue Portion is result)

This is what I get:
Can any one help me with below case in MongoDB:
find documents with a condition from Collection A. (lets say we got
2 documents)
Modify those 2 documents and then insert into Same collection A , with out disturbing original 2 documents.
Aggregation wont support merge into same collection, I got it through simple javascript, but we need in MapReduce.
Below is my Simple Script:
db.col1.find({
"field1": "value"
}).forEach(function(d1) {
d1.f2 = NumberInt(d1.f2 / 10);
db.col1.save(d1)
})
Before saving the modified document d1, change its _id with a new ObjectId(), this will insert new d1 instead of updating the existing one:
db.col1.find({"field1" : "value"}).forEach(function(d1)
{
d1.f2 = NumberInt(d1.f2/10);
d1._id = ObjectId();
db.col1.save(d1);
})
I am working on optimising my queries in mongodb.
In normal sql query there is an order in which where clauses are applied. For e.g. select * from employees where department="dept1" and floor=2 and sex="male", here first department="dept1" is applied, then floor=2 is applied and lastly sex="male".
I was wondering does it happen in a similar way in mongodb.
E.g.
DbObject search = new BasicDbObject("department", "dept1").put("floor",2).put("sex", "male");
here which match clause will be applied first or infact does mongo work in this manner at all.
This question basically arises from my background with SQL databases.
Please help.
If there are no indexes we have to scan the full collection (collection scan) in order to find the required documents. In your case if you want to apply with order [department, floor and sex] you should create this compound index:
db.employees.createIndex( { "department": 1, "floor": 1, "sex" : 1 } )
As documentation: https://docs.mongodb.org/manual/core/index-compound/
db.products.createIndex( { "item": 1, "stock": 1 } )
The order of the fields in a compound index is very important. In the
previous example, the index will contain references to documents
sorted first by the values of the item field and, within each value of
the item field, sorted by values of the stock field.
i have a query and when i validate it i see that the count command returns a different results from the aggregate result.
i have an array of sub-documents like so:
{
...
wished: [{'game':'dayz','appid':'1234'}, {'game':'half-life','appid':'1234'}]
...
}
i am trying to query a count of all games in the collection and return the name along with the count of how many times i found that game name.
if i go
db.user_info.count({'wished.game':'dayz'})
it returns 106 as the value and
db.user_info.aggregate([{'$unwind':'$wished'},{'$group':{'_id':'$wished.game','total':{'$sum':1}}},{'$sort':{'total':-1}}])
returns 110
i don't understand why my counts are different. the only thing i can think of is that it has to do with the data being in an array of sub-documents as opposed to being in an array or just in a document.
The $unwind statement will cause one user with multiple wished games to appear as several users. Imagine this data:
{
_id: 1,
wished: [{game:'a'}, {game:'b'}]
}
{
_id: 2,
wished: [{game:'a'}, {game:'c'}, {game:'a'}]
}
The count can NEVER be more than 2.
But with this same data, an $unwind will give you 5 different documents. Summing them up will then give you a:3, b:1, c:1.
I have Document
class Store(Document):
store_id = IntField(required=True)
items = ListField(ReferenceField(Item, required=True))
meta = {
'indexes': [
{
'fields': ['campaign_id'],
'unique': True
},
{
'fields': ['items']
}
]
}
And want to set up indexes in items and store_id, does my configuration right?
Your second index declaration looks like it should do what you want. But to make sure that the index is really effective, you should use explain. Connect to your database with the mongo shell and perform a find-query which should use that index followed by .explain(). Example:
db.yourCollection.find({items:"someItem"}).explain();
The output will be a document with lots of fields. The documentation explains what exactly each field means. Pay special attention to these fields:
millis Time in milliseconds the query required
indexOnly (self-explaining)
n number of returned documents
nscannedObjects the number of objects which had to be examined without using an index. For an index-only query this should be equal to n. When it is higher, it means that some documents could not be excluded by an index and had to be scanned manually.
