MongoDB function to return a specific data/value?
To return a specific data, use findOne() in MongoDB. The findOne() method returns one document that satisfies the specified query criteria on the collection Let us create a collection with documents −
> db.demo473.insertOne( ... { ... "_id" : new ObjectId(), ... "Name" : "Chris", ... "details" : { ... "X-Coordinate" :10, ... "Y-Coordinate" :15 ... } ... } ... ); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e805a07b0f3fa88e227907d") } > db.demo473.insertOne( ... { ... "_id" : new ObjectId(), ... "Name" : "Bob", ... "details" : { ... "X-Coordinate" :11, ... "Y-Coordinate" :12 ... } ... } ... ); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e805a07b0f3fa88e227907e") }
Display all documents from a collection with the help of find() method −
> db.demo473.find();
This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e805a07b0f3fa88e227907d"), "Name" : "Chris", "details" : { "X-Coordinate" : 10, "Y-Coordinate" : 15 } } { "_id" : ObjectId("5e805a07b0f3fa88e227907e"), "Name" : "Bob", "details" : { "X-Coordinate" : 11, "Y-Coordinate" : 12 } }
Following is the query to return a specific data with MongoDB findOne() function −
> db.demo473.findOne({ 'details.X-Coordinate':11 })
This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e805a07b0f3fa88e227907e"), "Name" : "Bob", "details" : { "X-Coordinate" : 11, "Y-Coordinate" : 12 } }
