Get the aggregated result and find the count of repeated values in different MongoDB
documents

To get the count of repeated values in different documents, use aggregate(). Let us create a collection with documents −

> db.demo452.insertOne({"StudentName":"John","StudentAge":21});{
   "acknowledged" : true,
   "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e7b7e3371f552a0ebb0a6f3")
}
> db.demo452.insertOne({"StudentName":"John","StudentAge":22});{
   "acknowledged" : true,
   "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e7b7e3671f552a0ebb0a6f4")
}
> db.demo452.insertOne({"StudentName":"John","StudentAge":23});{
   "acknowledged" : true,
   "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e7b7e3971f552a0ebb0a6f5")
}
> db.demo452.insertOne({"StudentName":"David","StudentAge":24});{
   "acknowledged" : true,
   "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e7b7e4371f552a0ebb0a6f6")
}
> db.demo452.insertOne({"StudentName":"David","StudentAge":25});{
   "acknowledged" : true,
   "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e7b7e4571f552a0ebb0a6f7")
}

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

> db.demo452.find();

This will produce the following output −

{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e7b7e3371f552a0ebb0a6f3"), "StudentName" : "John", "StudentAge" : 21 }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e7b7e3671f552a0ebb0a6f4"), "StudentName" : "John", "StudentAge" : 22 }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e7b7e3971f552a0ebb0a6f5"), "StudentName" : "John", "StudentAge" : 23 }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e7b7e4371f552a0ebb0a6f6"), "StudentName" : "David", "StudentAge" : 24}
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e7b7e4571f552a0ebb0a6f7"), "StudentName" : "David", "StudentAge" : 25}

Following is the query to find the count of repeated values in different MongoDB documents −

> db.demo452.aggregate([
...    {$group: {_id:"$StudentName", count:{$sum:1}}},
...    {$sort: {count:-1}},
...
...    {$group: {_id:1, StudentName:{$push:{StudentName:"$_id", count:"$count"}}}},
...    {$project: {
...       first : {$arrayElemAt: ["$StudentName", 0]},
...       second: {$arrayElemAt: ["$StudentName", 1]},
...       others: {$slice:["$StudentName", 2, {$size: "$StudentName"}]}
...    }
... },
...
... {$project: {
...    status: [
...       "$first",
...       "$second",
...       {
...          StudentName: "New Student Name",
...          count: {$sum: "$others.count"}
...       }
...    ]
... }
... },
...
... {$unwind: "$status"},
... {$project: { _id:0, StudentName: "$status.StudentName", count: "$status.count" }}
... ])

This will produce the following output −

{ "StudentName" : "John", "count" : 3 }
{ "StudentName" : "David", "count" : 2 }
{ "StudentName" : "New Student Name", "count" : 0 }
