How to get the equivalent for SELECT column1, column2 FROM tbl in MongoDB Database?
The equivalent syntax is as follows.
db.yourCollectionName.find({}, {_id: 1, "column1": 1, "column2": 1}).pretty();
To understand the above syntax, let us create a collection with the document. The query to create a collection with a document is as follows −
> db.equivalentForSelectColumn1Column2Demo.insertOne({"CustomerName":"John","CustomerAge":26,"CustomerCountryName":"US"}); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5c92c6205259fcd19549980a") } > db.equivalentForSelectColumn1Column2Demo.insertOne({"CustomerName":"David","CustomerAge":22,"CustomerCountryName":"AUS"}); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5c92c6305259fcd19549980b") } > db.equivalentForSelectColumn1Column2Demo.insertOne({"CustomerName":"Chris","CustomerAge":24,"CustomerCountryName":"UK"}); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5c92c6415259fcd19549980c") }
Display all documents from a collection with the help of find() method. The query is as follows −
> db.equivalentForSelectColumn1Column2Demo.find().pretty();
The following is the output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5c92c6205259fcd19549980a"), "CustomerName" : "John", "CustomerAge" : 26, "CustomerCountryName" : "US" } { "_id" : ObjectId("5c92c6305259fcd19549980b"), "CustomerName" : "David", "CustomerAge" : 22, "CustomerCountryName" : "AUS" } { "_id" : ObjectId("5c92c6415259fcd19549980c"), "CustomerName" : "Chris", "CustomerAge" : 24, "CustomerCountryName" : "UK" }
Here is the equivalent syntax for select column1, column2 from tbl in MongoDB database −
> db.equivalentForSelectColumn1Column2Demo.find({}, {"CustomerName": 1, "CustomerAge": 1}).pretty();
The following is the output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5c92c6205259fcd19549980a"), "CustomerName" : "John", "CustomerAge" : 26 } { "_id" : ObjectId("5c92c6305259fcd19549980b"), "CustomerName" : "David", "CustomerAge" : 22 } { "_id" : ObjectId("5c92c6415259fcd19549980c"), "CustomerName" : "Chris", "CustomerAge" : 24 }
If you do not want to include _id, use the below query −
> db.equivalentForSelectColumn1Column2Demo.find({}, {_id: 0, "CustomerName": 1, "CustomerAge": 1}).pretty();
The following is the output −
{ "CustomerName" : "John", "CustomerAge" : 26 } { "CustomerName" : "David", "CustomerAge" : 22 } { "CustomerName" : "Chris", "CustomerAge" : 24 }
