I have db collection like this
[
{
name: "Fried Burger",
image: "https://burgerimage.com",
category: "burger"
},
{
name: "Fried Pizza",
image: "https://pizzaimage.com",
category: "pizza"
},
{
name: "Veg Pizza",
image: "https://vegpizzaimage.com",
category: "pizza"
},
{
name: "Fried Pasta",
image: "https://friedpastaimage.com",
category: "pasta"
}
]
Is there any way I get value from category without repeating and single image although there are multiple categories like this
[
{category: "burger", image:"https://burgerimage.com"},
{category: "pizza", image:"https://pizzaimage.com"}, //Any image works as long as category is same
{category: "pasta", image:"https://pastaimage.com"}
I used .distinct('category') but it only returns like this but I also want one image with that
{
"category": [
"Burger",
"beef",
"chicken",
"duck",
"pasta",
"pizza",
"pork"
]
}
If you want just the category and image of each, try this
MyModel.find({} , 'category image', function(err, docs) { })
