i have a document like this :
{
"ExtraFields" : [
{
"value" : "print",
"fieldID" : ObjectId("5535627631efa0843554b0ea")
},
{
"value" : "14",
"fieldID" : ObjectId("5535627631efa0843554b0eb")
},
{
"value" : "POLYE",
"fieldID" : ObjectId("5535627631efa0843554b0ec")
},
{
"value" : "30",
"fieldID" : ObjectId("5535627631efa0843554b0ed")
},
{
"value" : "0",
"fieldID" : ObjectId("5535627631efa0843554b0ee")
},
{
"value" : "0",
"fieldID" : ObjectId("5535627731efa0843554b0ef")
},
{
"value" : "0",
"fieldID" : ObjectId("5535627831efa0843554b0f0")
},
{
"value" : "42",
"fieldID" : ObjectId("5535627831efa0843554b0f1")
},
{
"value" : "30",
"fieldID" : ObjectId("5535627831efa0843554b0f2")
},
{
"value" : "14",
"fieldID" : ObjectId("5535627831efa0843554b0f3")
},
{
"value" : "19",
"fieldID" : ObjectId("5535627831efa0843554b0f4")
}
],
"id" : ObjectId("55369e60733e4914550832d0"), "title" : "A product"
}
what i want is to match one or more sets from the ExtraFields array. For example, all the products that contain the values print and 30. Since a value may be found in more than one fieldID (like 0 or true) we need to create a set like
WHERE (fieldID : ObjectId("5535627631efa0843554b0ea"), value : "print")
Where i'm having problems is when querying more than one fields. The pipeline i came up with is :
db.products.aggregate([
{'$unwind': '$ExtraFields'},
{
'$match': {
'$and': [{
'$and': [{'ExtraFields.value': {'$in': ["A52A2A"]}}, {
'ExtraFields.fieldID': ObjectId("5535627631efa0843554b0ea")
}]
}
,
{
'$and': [{'ExtraFields.value': '14'}, {'ExtraFields.fieldID': ObjectId("5535627631efa0843554b0eb")}]
}
]
}
},
]);
This returns zero results, but this is what i want to do in theory. Match all items that contain set 1 AND all that contain set 2.
The end result should look like a faceted search output :
[
{
"_id" : {
"values" : "18",
"fieldID" : ObjectId("5535627831efa0843554b0f3")
},
"count" : 2
},
{
"_id" : {
"values" : "33",
"fieldID" : ObjectId("5535627831efa0843554b0f2")
},
"count" : 1
}
]
Any ideas?
You can use $and with aggregation but you don't have to write it, and is implicit using different filters, in fact you can pipe those filters in case one of them needs a different solution.
We can join documents on collections in MongoDB by using the $lookup (Aggregation) function. $lookup(Aggregation) creates an outer left join with another collection and helps to filter data from merged data.
Aggregation wins where the volume of data returned is much less than the original data or where you don't have the skill to build fast client side aggregations. I hope it answers your query.
You could try the following aggregation pipeline
db.products.aggregate([
{
"$match": {
"ExtraFields.value": { "$in": ["A52A2A", "14"] },
"ExtraFields.fieldID": {
"$in": [
ObjectId("5535627631efa0843554b0ea"),
ObjectId("5535627631efa0843554b0eb")
]
}
}
},
{
"$unwind": "$ExtraFields"
},
{
"$match": {
"ExtraFields.value": { "$in": ["A52A2A", "14"] },
"ExtraFields.fieldID": {
"$in": [
ObjectId("5535627631efa0843554b0ea"),
ObjectId("5535627631efa0843554b0eb")
]
}
}
},
{
"$group": {
"_id": {
"value": "$ExtraFields.value",
"fieldID": "$ExtraFields.fieldID"
},
"count": {
"$sum": 1
}
}
}
])
With the sample document provided, this gives the output:
/* 1 */
{
"result" : [
{
"_id" : {
"value" : "14",
"fieldID" : ObjectId("5535627631efa0843554b0eb")
},
"count" : 1
}
],
"ok" : 1
}
