I am trying to update a document in Mongo if it has a certain value within a field.
{
"_id" : ObjectId("myObject"),
"source" : "BW",
"sourceTableName" : "myTable",
"tableName" : "tier",
"type" : "main",
"fieldMappings" : [
{
"sourceField" : "tier_id", <~~~~ If this is "tier_id", I want to change it to "trmls_id"
"reportingField" : "bw_id",
"type" : "integer",
"defaultMap" : {
"shouldErrorOnConvert" : false
}
}
]
}
I tried something like
db.getCollection('entityMap').update({"sourceTableName":"myTable"}, {"fieldMappings.0.sourceField":"trmls_id":{$exists : true}}, { $set: { "fieldMappings.0.sourceField": "tier_id" } })
and I think it is failing on the $exists parameter I am setting.
Is there a more cleaner/dynamic way to do this?
The whole query I am trying to formulate is
In the table myTable
I want to check if there is a sourceField that has the value tier_id
If there is tier_id, then change it to trmls_id
Otherwise do nothing
If there is a similar StackOverflow question that answers this, I am happy to explore it! Thanks!
There is a syntax mistake and you can use positional operator $ in update part because you have already selector field in query part,
db.getCollection('entityMap').update(
{
"sourceTableName": "myTable",
"fieldMappings.sourceField": "tier_id" // if this field found then it will go to update part
},
{
$set: {
"fieldMappings.$.sourceField": "trmls_id"
}
}
)

I am implementing search result view to my app.
I figured out that mongoose internally provide full text search function with $text.
I put the code below to Post.js
PostSchema.index({desc: 'text'}); //for example
Here's the code I put in my routing file route/posts.js
Post.find({$text: {$search : 'please work!'}}).exec(function (err, posts) {...})
The error message I come up with is below
Index with pattern: { _fts: "text", _ftsx: 1 } already exists with different options
Would there any body who know how to deal with this error and figure out?
Thanks you.
check on which field you have your text index defined. Right now mongodb allows only one text index per collection. so if you have defined a text index on desc column and try to use that index on some other column you are bound to get this error.
can you try to query your index and see on which column you created it. To get indexes you can do
db.collection.getIndexes()
and it will return something like this
[
{
"v" : 1,
"key" : {
"_id" : 1
},
"name" : "_id_",
"ns" : "some.ns"
},
{
"v" : 1,
"key" : {
"_fts" : "text",
"_ftsx" : 1
},
"name" : "desc_text",
"ns" : "some.ns",
"weights" : {
"title" : 1
},
"default_language" : "english",
"language_override" : "language",
"textIndexVersion" : 2
}
]
now if you want to scope in other columns also to use this index simply drop this index
db.collection.dropIndex('desc_text');
and then recreate it by including all columns you want to be covered by text index,
db.collection.createIndex({
title:'text;,
body: 'text;,
desc: 'text',
...... and so on
});
This code uses a loop to $unset the "checked" property of all embedded documents in the "value" array, then $set the one when a condition evaluates to true.
But when the condition is true, the update block failed to update the embedded document by setting a checked: "checked", I know that because meteor:PRIMARY> db.radioOptions.find({}).pretty(); gives the same results before and after.
What am I doing wrong? and how to fix it? Thanks
meteor:PRIMARY> db.radioOptions.find({}).pretty();
{
"_id" : "jXQcsXtedQYotKQXG",
"name" : "optionType",
"value" : [
{
"name" : "1stOption",
"caption" : "1st Option"
},
{
"name" : "2ndOption",
"caption" : "2nd Option"
}
]
}
var doc = RadioOptions.findOne({name: obj.name});
if (typeof doc != 'undefined') {
doc.value.forEach(function (embdoc) {
console.log(embdoc);
RadioOptions.update(
{name: obj.name, 'value.name': obj.value},
{$unset: {'value.$.checked': ""}}
);
if (embdoc.name == obj.value) {
console.log(obj.name + " " + obj.value); //obj.value = 1stOption for example
RadioOptions.update(
{name: obj.name, 'value.name': obj.value}, //obj.name = "optionType"
{$set: {'value.$.checked': "checked"}}
);
}
})
}
Let's say that is was your objective to set the array element with the name "2ndOption" to "checked" and $unset all other array elements. You would then instead do:
var doc = RadioOptions.findOne({name: obj.name});
if (typeof doc != 'undefined') {
// You have to update every element
doc.value.forEach(function (embdoc) {
RadioOptions.update(
{ "_id": doc._id, "value.name": embdoc.name },
{ "$unset": { "value.$.checked": "" } }
)
});
// Then just set the one you want
RadioOptions.update(
{ "_id": doc._id, "value.name": "2ndOption" }, // <-- actually using a variable of course
{ "$set": { "value.$.checked": "checked" } }
)
}
Now if you had actually read all the responses on the duplicate question you were given for your original question:
How to Update Multiple Array Elements in mongodb
Then you would have seen the response there that mentioned the best way to handle all these mutliple updates was using the "Bulk" API methods in the underlying driver. And also has some useful tips on the general process of updating multiple elements.
On the "server" (not in minimongo) is the best place to to this, and all meteor collections have a .rawCollection() method which returns the collection object from the underlying node native driver.
So the general logic is:
Loop all array elements and update to "turn off"
Match the element you want to "turn on"
And best done in Bulk rather than responding back and forth for each update.
I have the following documents in my mongodb collection:
{
"current" :
{
"aksd" : "5555",
"BullevardBoh" : "123"
},
"history" :
{ "1" : {
"deleted" : false,
"added" : false,
"date" : "21-08-2014"
}
},
{ "2" : {
"deleted" : false,
"added" : false,
"date" : "01-01-2013"
}
},
"_id" : ObjectId("53f74dad2cbfdc136a07bf16"),
"__v" : 0
}
I have multiple of these documents. Now I want to achieve two things with my Mongoose/Express API.
Query for all nested "current" in each document and retrieve them as JSON objects like such: {"aksd":"5555","BullevardBoh":"123"},{..},{..}.
Retrieve all history revisions (1,2...) where "date" is smaller than a given date.
As you can clearly see this is a kind of versioning I am trying to implement. I would also be interested if this kind of data structure will get indexed by MongoDB and if there is possibly a better way. (e.g. with arrays inside objects?)
This isn't working in MongoDB:
db.ips.findOne({current.aksd: {$exists:true}});
I think the quotes around the field are missing here:
db.ips.findOne({current.aksd: {$exists:true}});
This should work instead:
db.ips.findOne({"current.aksd": {$exists:true}});
While Ritesh's reply was a step in the right direction, I rather wanted to fetch the current object literal and its members inside the document not the whole document.
1.) Query for all nested "current" in each document
db.ips.find({"current":{$exists:true}}, {"current":1});
This is giving back all nested documents where the aksd literal is present:
{ "current" : { "aksd" : "5555", "BullevardBoh" : "123" }, "_id" : ObjectId("53f74dad2cb3dc136a07bf16") }
...
2.) Retrieving history revisions where date is smaller then a given date:
db.ips.find({"history.date": {$lt: "01-01-2014"}},{history:{$elemMatch:{date: {$lt:"01-01-2014"}}}});
Giving back the wanted nested date literal(s):
{ "historie" : [ { "date" : "01-01-2013", "added" : false, "deleted" : false } ], "_id" : ObjectId("53faf20f399a954b2b7736b6") }
I've posted the following question which has been answered correctly:
MongoDB - Updating only $ref from DBRef field type
Despite of this when I execute the find method like this:
{ "codeId" : { "$ref" : "code" , "$id" : { "$oid" :
"4ff1c08c6ef25616ce21c4b6"}} }
The document isn't returned... Any idea why?
After the update the document is stored like this:
{ "_id" : { "$oid" : "5097ae1cd3159eb52d05574c"} , "codeId" : { "$ref"
: "code" , "$id" : { "$oid" : "4ff1c08c6ef25616ce21c4b6"}} }
By the way, using uMongo GUI, if I select the Update option over this stored document, and save it, without making any changes whatsoever, and then make the find query once again, the document is returned by the query...
Thanks
This is a clearly one of those DBRef "tweaky" things...
As a temporary (but probably correct) fix, I managed to solve this problem executing this javascript procedure:
var cursor = db.menu.find( { "codeId.$ref" : "version" } );
while( cursor.hasNext() )
{
var document = cursor.next();
db.menu.update(
document,
{ $set: {"codeId" : DBRef("code", document.codeId.$id) }},
{ upsert: false, multi: true }
);
}
Still, I won't consider this to be the best way to achieve what I want... Any other solution that involves less lines?
i have data that looks like this in my database
> db.whocs_up.find()
{ "_id" : ObjectId("52ce212cb17120063b9e3869"), "project" : "asnclkdacd", "users" : [ ] }
and i tried to add to the 'users' array like thus:
> db.whocs_up.update({'users.user': 'usex', 'project' : 'asnclkdacd' },{ '$addToSet': { 'users': {'user':'userx', 'lastactivity' :2387843543}}},true)
but i get the following error:
Cannot apply $addToSet modifier to non-array
same thing happens with push operator, what im i doing wrong?
im on 2.4.8
i tried to follow this example from here:
MongoDB - Update objects in a document's array (nested updating)
db.bar.update( {user_id : 123456, "items.item_name" : {$ne : "my_item_two" }} ,
{$addToSet : {"items" : {'item_name' : "my_item_two" , 'price' : 1 }} } ,
false ,
true)
the python tag is because i was working with python when i ran into this, but it does nto work on the mongo shell as you can see
EDIT ============================== GOT IT TO WORK
apparently if i modify the update from
db.whocs_up.update({'users.user': 'usex', 'project' : 'asnclkdacd' },{ '$addToSet': { 'users': {'user':'userx', 'lastactivity' :2387843543}}},true)
to this:
db.whocs_up.update({'project' : 'asnclkdacd' },{ '$addToSet': { 'users': {'user':'userx', 'lastactivity' :2387843543}}},true)
it works, but can anyone explain why the two do not achieve the same thing, in my understanding they should have referenced the same document and hence done the same thing,
What does the addition of 'users.user': 'userx' change in the update? does it refer to some inner document in the array rather than the document as a whole?
This is a known bug in MongoDB (SERVER-3946). Currently, an update with $push/$addToSet with a query on the same field does not work as expected.
In the general case, there are a couple of workarounds:
Restructure your update operation to not have to query on a field that is also to be updated using $push/$addToSet (as you have done above).
Use the $all operator in the query, supplying a single-value array containing the lookup value. e.g. instead of this:
db.foo.update({ x : "a" }, { $addToSet : { x : "b" } }, true)
do this:
db.foo.update({ x : { $all : ["a"] } }, { $addToSet : { x : "b" } } , true)
In your specific case, I think you need to re-evaluate the operation you're trying to do. The update operation you have above will add a new array entry for each unique (user, lastactivity) pair, which is probably not what you want. I assume you want a unique entry for each user.
Consider changing your schema so that you have one document per user:
{
_id : "userx",
project : "myproj",
lastactivity : 123,
...
}
The update operation then becomes something like:
db.users.update({ _id : "userx" }, { $set : { lastactivity : 456 } })
All users in a given project may still be looked up efficiently by adding a secondary index on project.
This schema also avoids the unbounded document growth of the above schema, which is better for performance.
