MongoDb - $match filter not working in subdocument
- by Ranjith
This is Collection Structure
[{
"_id" : "....",
"name" : "aaaa",
"level_max_leaves" : [
{
level : "ObjectIdString 1",
max_leaves : 4,
}
]
},
{
"_id" : "....",
"name" : "bbbb",
"level_max_leaves" : [
{
level : "ObjectIdString 2",
max_leaves : 2,
}
]
}]
I need to find the subdocument value of level_max_leaves.level filter when its matching with given input value.
And this how I tried,
For example,
var empLevelId = 'ObjectIdString 1' ;
MyModel.aggregate(
{$unwind: "$level_max_leaves"},
{$match: {"$level_max_leaves.level": empLevelId } },
{$group: { "_id": "$level_max_leaves.level",
"total": { "$sum": "$level_max_leaves.max_leaves" }}},
function (err, res) {
console.log(res);
});
But here the $match filter is not working. I can't find out exact results of ObjectIdString 1
If I filter with name field, its working fine. like this,
{$match: {"$name": "aaaa" } },
But in subdocument level its returns 0.
{$match: {"$level_max_leaves.level": "ObjectIdString 1"} },
My expected result was,
{
"_id" : "ObjectIdString 1",
"total" : 4,
}
