MongoDB query by sub-field?
You can use dot(.) notation to query by subfield. Let us create a collection with a document. The query to create a collection with a document is as follows −
> db.queryBySubFieldDemo.insertOne( ... { ... "StudentPersonalDetails" : {"StudentName" : "John","StudentHobby" :"Photography"}, ... "StudentScores" : {"MathScore" : 56} ... } ... ); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5c92c2995259fcd195499808") } > db.queryBySubFieldDemo.insertOne( ... { ... "StudentPersonalDetails" : {"StudentName" : "Chris","StudentHobby" :"Reading"}, ... "StudentScores" : {"MathScore" : 97} ... } ... ); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5c92c2df5259fcd195499809") }
Display all documents from a collection with the help of find() method. The query is as follows −
> db.queryBySubFieldDemo.find().pretty();
The following is the output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5c92c2995259fcd195499808"), "StudentPersonalDetails" : { "StudentName" : "John", "StudentHobby" : "Photography" }, "StudentScores" : { "MathScore" : 56 } } { "_id" : ObjectId("5c92c2df5259fcd195499809"), "StudentPersonalDetails" : { "StudentName" : "Chris", "StudentHobby" : "Reading" }, "StudentScores" : { "MathScore" : 97 } }
Here is the query by subfield −
> db.queryBySubFieldDemo.find({"StudentPersonalDetails.StudentName":"Chris"}).pretty();
The following is the output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5c92c2df5259fcd195499809"), "StudentPersonalDetails" : { "StudentName" : "Chris", "StudentHobby" : "Reading" }, "StudentScores" : { "MathScore" : 97 } }
