Get count of array elements from a specific field in MongoDB documents?
To count array elements from a specific field, use $size in MongoDB. Let us create a collection with documents −
> db.demo723.insertOne({"Subject":["MySQL","MongoDB"]}); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5eab094d43417811278f588a") } > db.demo723.insertOne({"Subject":["C"]}); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5eab095243417811278f588b") } > db.demo723.insertOne({"Subject":["C++","Java","Python"]}); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5eab095f43417811278f588c") }
Display all documents from a collection with the help of find() method −
> db.demo723.find();
This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5eab094d43417811278f588a"), "Subject" : [ "MySQL", "MongoDB" ] } { "_id" : ObjectId("5eab095243417811278f588b"), "Subject" : [ "C" ] } { "_id" : ObjectId("5eab095f43417811278f588c"), "Subject" : [ "C++", "Java", "Python" ] }
Following is the query to count array elements in MongoDB −
> db.demo723.aggregate([ ... { $project: { count: { $size: '$Subject' } } } ... ])
This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5eab094d43417811278f588a"), "count" : 2 } { "_id" : ObjectId("5eab095243417811278f588b"), "count" : 1 } { "_id" : ObjectId("5eab095f43417811278f588c"), "count" : 3 }
