Filtering MongoDB items by fields and subfields?
To filter items by fields and subfields, use dot notation. Let us create a collection with documents −
> db.demo638.insert({Name:"Chris"}); WriteResult({ "nInserted" : 1 }) > db.demo638.insert({Name:"David",details:{Subject:"MongoDB"}}); WriteResult({ "nInserted" : 1 })
Display all documents from a collection with the help of find() method −
> db.demo638.find().pretty();
This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e9c28666c954c74be91e6de"), "Name" : "Chris" } { "_id" : ObjectId("5e9c28866c954c74be91e6df"), "Name" : "David", "details" : { "Subject" : "MongoDB" } }
Following is the query to filter items by multiple fields and subfields −
> db.demo638.find({"details.Subject":null});
This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e9c28666c954c74be91e6de"), "Name" : "Chris" }
