Is there any way to see the MongoDB results in a better format?
Yes, you can use the findOne(). Following is the syntax −
db.yourCollectionName.findOne();
You can use toArray() as well −
db.yourCollectionName.find().toArray();
Let us first create a collection with documents −
> db.betterFormatDemo.insertOne({"StudentName":"Adam Smith","StudentScores":[98,67,89]});
{
"acknowledged" : true,
"insertedId" : ObjectId("5cd7ab826d78f205348bc640")
}
> db.betterFormatDemo.insertOne({"StudentName":"John Doe","StudentScores":[67,89,56]});
{
"acknowledged" : true,
"insertedId" : ObjectId("5cd7ab936d78f205348bc641")
}
> db.betterFormatDemo.insertOne({"StudentName":"Sam Williams","StudentScores":[45,43,33]});
{
"acknowledged" : true,
"insertedId" : ObjectId("5cd7aba76d78f205348bc642")
}Following is the query to display all documents from a collection with the help of find() method −
> db.betterFormatDemo.find();
This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5cd7ab826d78f205348bc640"), "StudentName" : "Adam Smith", "StudentScores" : [ 98, 67, 89 ] }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5cd7ab936d78f205348bc641"), "StudentName" : "John Doe", "StudentScores" : [ 67, 89, 56 ] }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5cd7aba76d78f205348bc642"), "StudentName" : "Sam Williams", "StudentScores" : [ 45, 43, 33 ] }Case 1 − Using findOne().
Following is the query to display the MongoDB results in a better format −
> db.betterFormatDemo.findOne();
This will produce the following output −
{
"_id" : ObjectId("5cd7ab826d78f205348bc640"),
"StudentName" : "Adam Smith",
"StudentScores" : [
98,
67,
89
]
}Case 2 − Using find().toArray().
Following is the query to display the MongoDB results in a better format −
> db.betterFormatDemo.find().toArray();
This will produce the following output −
[
{
"_id" : ObjectId("5cd7ab826d78f205348bc640"),
"StudentName" : "Adam Smith",
"StudentScores" : [
98,
67,
89
]
},
{
"_id" : ObjectId("5cd7ab936d78f205348bc641"),
"StudentName" : "John Doe",
"StudentScores" : [
67,
89,
56
]
},
{
"_id" : ObjectId("5cd7aba76d78f205348bc642"),
"StudentName" : "Sam Williams",
"StudentScores" : [
45,
43,
33
]
}
]
