Easiest way to sort an array in MongoDB
The easiest way to sort an array in MongoDB, use $sort. Let us create a collection with documents −
> db.demo242.insertOne( ... ... {"details2": ... [ ... {"ShipingDate":new ISODate("2019-10-11"),"Price":1400}, ... {"ShipingDate":new ISODate("2019-10-01"),"Price":1600 } ... ] ... } ... ...); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e4429229af932883c61ea44") }
Display all documents from a collection with the help of find() method −
> db.demo242.find();
This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e4429229af932883c61ea44"), "details2" : [ { "ShipingDate" : ISODate("2019-10-11T00:00:00Z"), "Price" : 1400 }, { "ShipingDate" : ISODate("2019-10-01T00:00:00Z"), "Price" : 1600 } ] }
Following is the query to sort an array in MongoDB −
> db.demo242.aggregate([ {$unwind: "$details2"}, {$sort: {"details2.ShipingDate":1}}, {$group: {_id:"$_id", details2: {$push:"$details2.ShipingDate"}}} ]);
This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e4429229af932883c61ea44"), "details2" : [ ISODate("2019-10-01T00:00:00Z"), ISODate("2019-10-11T00:00:00Z") ] }
