Syntax error MongoDB aggregation to fetch documents with specific field value?

MongoDB aggregation to fetch documents with specific field value?



For this, use aggregate(). Let’s say we have to fetch documents with a field “Age” with value “21”.

Let us now create a collection with documents −

> db.demo685.insertOne(
...    {
...       "details":
...       [
...          {
...             Name:"Chris",
...             Age:21
...          },
...          {
...             Name:"David",
...             Age:23
...          },
...          {
...             Name:"Bob",
...             Age:21
...          }
...       ]
...    }
... );
{
   "acknowledged" : true,
   "insertedId" : ObjectId("5ea54f6fa7e81adc6a0b395b")
}

Display all documents from a collection with the help of find() method −

> db.demo685.find();

This will produce the following output −

{ "_id" : ObjectId("5ea54f6fa7e81adc6a0b395b"), "details" : [
   { "Name" : "Chris", "Age" : 21 },
   { "Name" : "David", "Age" : 23 },
   { "Name" : "Bob", "Age" : 21 } 
] }

Following is the query for MongoDB aggregation −

> db.demo685.aggregate([ { $unwind: "$details" }, { $match: { "details.Age": 21 } }, { $project: {_id: 0}} ]).pretty();

This will produce the following output −

{ "details" : { "Name" : "Chris", "Age" : 21 } }
{ "details" : { "Name" : "Bob", "Age" : 21 } }
