I have this entry in database:
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5159c668a8f9718f040025da"), "name" : "foo", "subType" : DBPointer("Type", ObjectId("5159928ca8f9718f04000006")) ] }
The sub type references to:
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5159928ca8f9718f04000006"), "name" : "Cafe" }
I want to do a query against the database, to find all records where the sub type's name is "Cafe". I've tried this, but does not work:
db.Entry.find({'subType.name': 'Cafe'})
I believe the reason why it doesn't work is because the reference is not fetched yet, how can I do that?

I have a document in my mongo db collection :
{
"_id" : ObjectId("xxxxxxx"),
"ID" : "a_11",
"details_list" : [
{
"detail" : "detail_1",
"link" : "https://xxxxx/yyy"
},
{
"detail" : "detail_2",
"link" : "https://xxxxx/zzz"
}
],
"name" : "xyz"
}
I want to get the "name" of all other docs where details_list (which is list of dictionary itself) matches with any other document in the same collection.
I tried using $where clause as well. db.collection.find({"$where": details_list == details_list}) but it did not returned any value.
I have a set of mongodb documents with the following structure:
{
"_id" : NUUID("58fbb893-dfe9-4f08-a761-5629d889647d"),
"Identifiers" : {
"IdentificationLevel" : 2,
"Identifier" : "extranet\\test#test.com"
},
"Personal" : {
"FirstName" : "Test",
"Surname" : "Test"
},
"Tags" : {
"Entries" : {
"ContactLists" : {
"Values" : {
"0" : {
"Value" : "{292D8695-4936-4865-A413-800960626E6D}",
"DateTime" : ISODate("2015-04-30T09:14:45.549Z")
}
}
}
}
}
}
How can I make a query with the mongo shell which finds all documents with a specific "Value" (e.g.{292D8695-4936-4865-A413-800960626E6D} in the Tag.Entries.ContactLists.Values path?
The structure is unfortunately locked by Sitecore, so it is not an options to use another structure.
As your sample collection structure show Values is object, it contains only one Value. Also you must check for Value as it contains extra paranthesis. If you want to get Value from given structure try following query :
db.collection.find({
"Tags.Entries.ContactLists.Values.0.Value": "{292D8695-4936-4865-A413-800960626E6D}"
})
I need get a specific object in array of array in MongoDB.
I need get only the task object = [_id = ObjectId("543429a2cb38b1d83c3ff2c2")].
My document (projects):
{
"_id" : ObjectId("543428c2cb38b1d83c3ff2bd"),
"name" : "new project",
"author" : ObjectId("5424ac37eb0ea85d4c921f8b"),
"members" : [
ObjectId("5424ac37eb0ea85d4c921f8b")
],
"US" : [
{
"_id" : ObjectId("5434297fcb38b1d83c3ff2c0"),
"name" : "Test Story",
"author" : ObjectId("5424ac37eb0ea85d4c921f8b"),
"tasks" : [
{
"_id" : ObjectId("54342987cb38b1d83c3ff2c1"),
"name" : "teste3",
"author" : ObjectId("5424ac37eb0ea85d4c921f8b")
},
{
"_id" : ObjectId("543429a2cb38b1d83c3ff2c2"),
"name" : "jklasdfa_XXX",
"author" : ObjectId("5424ac37eb0ea85d4c921f8b")
}
]
}
]
}
Result expected:
{
"_id" : ObjectId("543429a2cb38b1d83c3ff2c2"),
"name" : "jklasdfa_XXX",
"author" : ObjectId("5424ac37eb0ea85d4c921f8b")
}
But i not getting it.
I still testing with no success:
db.projects.find({
"US.tasks._id" : ObjectId("543429a2cb38b1d83c3ff2c2")
}, { "US.tasks.$" : 1 })
I tryed with $elemMatch too, but return nothing.
db.projects.find({
"US" : {
"tasks" : {
$elemMatch : {
"_id" : ObjectId("543429a2cb38b1d83c3ff2c2")
}
}
}
})
Can i get ONLY my result expected using find()? If not, what and how use?
Thanks!
You will need an aggregation for that:
db.projects.aggregate([{$unwind:"$US"},
{$unwind:"$US.tasks"},
{$match:{"US.tasks._id":ObjectId("543429a2cb38b1d83c3ff2c2")}},
{$project:{_id:0,"task":"$US.tasks"}}])
should return
{ task : {
"_id" : ObjectId("543429a2cb38b1d83c3ff2c2"),
"name" : "jklasdfa_XXX",
"author" : ObjectId("5424ac37eb0ea85d4c921f8b")
}
Explanation:
$unwind creates a new (virtual) document for each array element
$match is the query part of your find
$project is similar as to project part in find i.e. it specifies the fields you want to get in the results
You might want to add a second $match before the $unwind if you know the document you are searching (look at performance metrics).
Edit: added a second $unwind since US is an array.
Don't know what you are doing (so realy can't tell and just sugesting) but you might want to examine if your schema (and mongodb) is ideal for your task because the document looks just like denormalized relational data probably a relational database would be better for you.
My MongoDB collection is made up of 2 main collections :
1) Maps
{
"_id" : ObjectId("542489232436657966204394"),
"fileName" : "importFile1.json",
"territories" : [
{
"$ref" : "territories",
"$id" : ObjectId("5424892224366579662042e9")
},
{
"$ref" : "territories",
"$id" : ObjectId("5424892224366579662042ea")
}
]
},
{
"_id" : ObjectId("542489262436657966204398"),
"fileName" : "importFile2.json",
"territories" : [
{
"$ref" : "territories",
"$id" : ObjectId("542489232436657966204395")
}
],
"uploadDate" : ISODate("2012-08-22T09:06:40.000Z")
}
2) Territories, which are referenced in "Map" objects :
{
"_id" : ObjectId("5424892224366579662042e9"),
"name" : "Afghanistan",
"area" : 653958
},
{
"_id" : ObjectId("5424892224366579662042ea"),
"name" : "Angola",
"area" : 1252651
},
{
"_id" : ObjectId("542489232436657966204395"),
"name" : "Unknown",
"area" : 0
}
My objective is to list every map with their cumulative area and number of territories. I am trying the following query :
db.maps.aggregate(
{'$unwind':'$territories'},
{'$group':{
'_id':'$fileName',
'numberOf': {'$sum': '$territories.name'},
'locatedArea':{'$sum':'$territories.area'}
}
})
However the results show 0 for each of these values :
{
"result" : [
{
"_id" : "importFile2.json",
"numberOf" : 0,
"locatedArea" : 0
},
{
"_id" : "importFile1.json",
"numberOf" : 0,
"locatedArea" : 0
}
],
"ok" : 1
}
I probably did something wrong when trying to access to the member variables of Territory (name and area), but I couldn't find an example of such a case in the Mongo doc. area is stored as an integer, and name as a string.

Yes indeed, the field "territories" has an array of database references and not the actual documents. DBRefs are objects that contain information with which we can locate the actual documents.
In the above example, you can clearly see this, fire the below mongo query:
db.maps.find({"_id":ObjectId("542489232436657966204394")}).forEach(function(do
c){print(doc.territories[0]);})
it will print the DBRef object rather than the document itself:
o/p: DBRef("territories", ObjectId("5424892224366579662042e9"))
so, '$sum': '$territories.name','$sum': '$territories.area' would show you '0' since there are no fields such as name or area.
So you need to resolve this reference to a document before doing something like $territories.name
To achieve what you want, you can make use of the map() function, since aggregation nor Map-reduce support sub queries, and you already have a self-contained map document, with references to its territories.
Steps to achieve:
a) get each map
b) resolve the `DBRef`.
c) calculate the total area, and the number of territories.
d) make and return the desired structure.
Mongo shell script:
db.maps.find().map(function(doc) {
var territory_refs = doc.territories.map(function(terr_ref) {
refName = terr_ref.$ref;
return terr_ref.$id;
});
var areaSum = 0;
db.refName.find({
"_id" : {
$in : territory_refs
}
}).forEach(function(i) {
areaSum += i.area;
});
return {
"id" : doc.fileName,
"noOfTerritories" : territory_refs.length,
"areaSum" : areaSum
};
})
o/p:
[
{
"id" : "importFile1.json",
"noOfTerritories" : 2,
"areaSum" : 1906609
},
{
"id" : "importFile2.json",
"noOfTerritories" : 1,
"areaSum" : 0
}
]
Map-Reduce functions should not be and cannot be used to resolve DBRefs in the server side.
See what the documentation has to say:
The map function should not access the database for any reason.
The map function should be pure, or have no impact outside of the
function (i.e. side effects.)
The reduce function should not access the database, even to perform
read operations. The reduce function should not affect the outside
system.
Moreover, a reduce function even if used(which can never work anyway) will never be called for your problem, since a group w.r.t "fileName" or "ObjectId" would always have only one document, in your dataset.
MongoDB will not call the reduce function for a key that has only a
single value
I have the following items in my collection:
> db.test.find().pretty()
{ "_id" : ObjectId("532c471a90bc7707609a3d4f"), "name" : "Alice" }
{
"_id" : ObjectId("532c472490bc7707609a3d50"),
"name" : "Bob",
"partner_type1" : {
"status" : "rejected"
}
}
{
"_id" : ObjectId("532c473e90bc7707609a3d51"),
"name" : "Carol",
"partner_type2" : {
"status" : "accepted"
}
}
{
"_id" : ObjectId("532c475790bc7707609a3d52"),
"name" : "Dave",
"partner_type1" : {
"status" : "pending"
}
}
There are two partner types: partner_type1 and partner_type2. A user cannot be accepted partner in the both of types. But he can be a rejected partner in partner_type1 but accepted in the another, for example.
How can I build Mongo query that fetches the users that can become partners?
When your user can only be accepted in one partner-type, you should turn it around: Have a field accepted_as:"partner_type1" or accepted_as:"partner_type2". For people who aren't accepted yet, either have no such field or set it to null.
In both cases, your query to get any non-accepted will then be:
{
data.accepted_as: null
}
(null matches both non-existing fields as well as fields explicitly set to null)
For me the logical schema would be this:
"partner : {
"type": 1,
"status" : "rejected"
}
At least that keeps the paths consistent between documents.
So if you want to stay away from using mapReduce type methods to find out "which field" it is on, and otherwise use plain queries and the aggregation pipeline, then don't vary field paths on documents. If you alter the "data" then that is the most consistent form.
