Searching for an array entry via its id in a MongoDB collection and performing update
To search for an array via id, use positional $ operator. For update, use the UPDATE in MongoDB. Let us create a collection with documents −
> db.demo49.insertOne( ... { ... ... "Name": "David", ... "Details": [ ... { ... "_id": "D1234", ... "Subject":"MySQL" ... }, ... { ... "_id": "E234", ... "Subject":"Java" ... }, ... { ... "_id": "F456", ... "Subject":"Python" ... } ... ] ... } ... ); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e270a77cfb11e5c34d89902") }
Display all documents from a collection with the help of find() method −
> db.demo49.find();
This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e270a77cfb11e5c34d89902"), "Name" : "David", "Details" : [ { "_id" : "D1234", "Subject" : "MySQL" }, { "_id" : "E234", "Subject" : "Java" }, { "_id" : "F456", "Subject" : "Python" } ] }
Following is the query to search for an array entry via its id in a MongoDB collection −
> db.demo49.update( {"Details._id":"E234"}, ... {$set:{"Details.$.Subject":"MongoDB"}}, false, true ) WriteResult({ "nMatched" : 1, "nUpserted" : 0, "nModified" : 1 })
Display all documents from a collection with the help of find() method −
> db.demo49.find();
This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e270a77cfb11e5c34d89902"), "Name" : "David", "Details" : [ { "_id" : "D1234", "Subject" : "MySQL" }, { "_id" : "E234", "Subject" : "MongoDB" }, { "_id" : "F456", "Subject" : "Python" } ] }
