Looping MongoDB collection for sorting
To sort records in a collection, use sort() in MongoDB. Let us create a collection with documents −
> db.demo32.insertOne({"Name":"Chris"}); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e175158cfb11e5c34d898c5") } > db.demo32.insertOne({"Name":"Bob"}); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e17515ccfb11e5c34d898c6") } > db.demo32.insertOne({"Name":"Adam"}); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : Object0Id("5e175160cfb11e5c34d898c7") } > db.demo32.insertOne({"Name":"John"}); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e175165cfb11e5c34d898c8") } > db.demo32.insertOne({"Name":"Carol"}); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e17517bcfb11e5c34d898c9") }
Display all documents from a collection with the help of find() method −
> db.demo32.find();
This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e175158cfb11e5c34d898c5"), "Name" : "Chris" } { "_id" : ObjectId("5e17515ccfb11e5c34d898c6"), "Name" : "Bob" } { "_id" : ObjectId("5e175160cfb11e5c34d898c7"), "Name" : "Adam" } { "_id" : ObjectId("5e175165cfb11e5c34d898c8"), "Name" : "John" } { "_id" : ObjectId("5e17517bcfb11e5c34d898c9"), "Name" : "Carol" }
Following is the query to perform sorting in MongoDB −
> db.demo32.find().sort({"Name":1});
This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e175160cfb11e5c34d898c7"), "Name" : "Adam" } { "_id" : ObjectId("5e17515ccfb11e5c34d898c6"), "Name" : "Bob" } { "_id" : ObjectId("5e17517bcfb11e5c34d898c9"), "Name" : "Carol" } { "_id" : ObjectId("5e175158cfb11e5c34d898c5"), "Name" : "Chris" } { "_id" : ObjectId("5e175165cfb11e5c34d898c8"), "Name" : "John" }
