I have Collection of documents with id and contact. Contact is an array which contains subdocuments.
I am trying to get the count of contact where isActive = Y. Also need to query the collection based on the id. The entire query can be something like
Select Count(contact.isActive=Y) where _id = '601ad0227b25254647823713'
I am using mongo and mongoose for the first time. Please edit the question if I was not able to explain it properly.
You can use an aggregation pipeline like this:
$match to get only documents with desired _id.$unwind to get different values inside array.isActive value is Y.$group adding one for each document that exists (i.e. counting documents with isActive= Y). The count is stores in field total.db.collection.aggregate([
{
"$match": {"id": 1}
},
{
"$unwind": "$contact"
},
{
"$match": {"contact.isActive": "Y"}
},
{
"$group": {
"_id": "$id",
"total": {"$sum": 1}
}
}
])
