Combining unique items from arrays in MongoDB?
To combine unique items from array, use aggregate() in MongoDB. Let us create a collection with documents −
> db.demo420.insert(
... {
...
... "details" : [
... {
... "Value1":10,
... "Value2":20,
... "Value3":30
... }
... ]
... }
... )
WriteResult({ "nInserted" : 1 })
> db.demo420.insert(
... {
...
... "Info" : [
... {
... "Value1":10,
... "Value2":20,
... "Value3":300
... }
... ]
... }
... )
WriteResult({ "nInserted" : 1 })Display all documents from a collection with the help of find() method −
> db.demo420.find();
This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e739a569822da45b30346dc"), "details" : [ { "Value1" : 10, "Value2" : 20, "Value3" : 30 } ] }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e739a569822da45b30346dd"), "Info" : [ { "Value1" : 10, "Value2" : 20, "Value3" : 300 } ] }Following is the query to combine unique items from arrays −
> db.demo420.aggregate([
... { "$project": {
... "_id": 0,
... "unique": {
... "$filter": {
... "input": {
... "$setDifference": [
... { "$concatArrays": [
... "$Info.Value1",
... "$Info.Value2",
... "$Info.Value3"
...
... ]},
... []
... ]
... },
... "cond": { "$ne": [ "$$this", "" ] }
... }
... }
... }},
... { "$unwind": "$unique" },
... { "$group": {
... "_id": null,
... "uniqueArray": { "$addToSet": "$unique" }
... }}
... ])This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : null, "uniqueArray" : [ 300, 20, 10 ] }
