MongoDB query to return only embedded document?
It is not possible to return only embedded document. However, it will return all the documents from a collection. Let us first implement the following query to create a collection with documents
>db.queryToEmbeddedDocument.insertOne({"UserName":"Larry","PostDetails":[{"UserMessage":"Hello","UserLikes":8},{"UserMessage":"Hi","UserLikes":6},{"UserMessage":"Good Morning","UserLikes":12},{"UserMessage":"Awesome","UserLikes":4}]}); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5c988a9f330fd0aa0d2fe4bd") }
Following is the query to display all documents from a collection with the help of find() method
> db.queryToEmbeddedDocument.find().pretty();
This will produce the following output
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5c988a9f330fd0aa0d2fe4bd"), "UserName" : "Larry", "PostDetails" : [ { "UserMessage" : "Hello", "UserLikes" : 8 }, { "UserMessage" : "Hi", "UserLikes" : 6 }, { "UserMessage" : "Good Morning", "UserLikes" : 12 }, { "UserMessage" : "Awesome", "UserLikes" : 4 } ] }
Following is the query to return all the documents from a collection
> db.queryToEmbeddedDocument.find({"PostDetails.UserLikes": {$gte: 8}},{PostDetails:1}).pretty();
This will produce the following output
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5c988a9f330fd0aa0d2fe4bd"), "PostDetails" : [ { "UserMessage" : "Hello", "UserLikes" : 8 }, { "UserMessage" : "Hi", "UserLikes" : 6 }, { "UserMessage" : "Good Morning", "UserLikes" : 12 }, { "UserMessage" : "Awesome", "UserLikes" : 4 } ] }
Look at the above sample output, we are getting all the documents while we want only those documents in which “UserLikes” are greater than or equal to 8.
