MongoDB - Updating subdocument - database

I'm working with mongo 3.4.13 and I want to add an element in this document:
{
"_id" : ObjectId("5981d38cf43047f3235febbc"),
"code" : "A0001",
"subItems": [
{
"_id" : ObjectId("5981d38cf43047f3235febbc"),
"code" : "A1001",
"subItems": []
},
{
"_id" : ObjectId("5981d38cf43047f3235febbc"),
"code" : "A2001",
"subItems": [
{
"_id" : ObjectId("5981d38cf43047f3235febbc"),
"code" : "A2101",
"subItems": [
//I wanna add an element here
]
}
]
}
]
}
But I have no idea how to do it, any idea?

According to description as mentioned into above question I assume that you need to add an element into subItems array field belonging to BSON Document as mentioned above.
$addToSet operator is used to append a value into an array field as a part of update operation only if value does not exist into an array thereby ensuring uniqueness of values into an array field.

Compare array within objects in an array of the same Mongo document

I have a Mongo database with multiple documents and they all contain 2 Items for in store and online locations. The difference will be that attributes within the items object may differ. I am trying to capture all documents that have differing attributes between the object items with the array.
I've tried using $expr and comparing the position of the elements such as "Items.0.Attributes" == "Items.1.Attributes" but had no luck.
{
"ID" : "123456789",
"Items" : [
{
"ItemDept" : "softLines",
"ProductId" : {
"Name" : "shirts",
"_id" : "12345Shirts"
},
"Attributes" : [ "blue","small","mens"],
"Season" : "Summer"
"Location":"online"
}
,
{
"ItemDept" : "softlines",
"ProductId" : {
"Name" : "shirts",
"_id" : "12345Shirts")
},
"Attributes" : [ "blue","small","women"],
"Season" : "Summer"
"Location":"stores"
}
]
}
If I understand what you want to find/output, here's one way you could do it.
db.collection.find({
"$expr": {
"$not": {
"$setEquals": [
{"$first": "$Items.Attributes"},
{"$last": "$Items.Attributes"}
]
}
}
})

Query for deeply nested array in mongodb

How do I query a deeply nested docs like show in the below image.
Here columns is an array of unknown size. Each element in the column contains a record that is again an array. Each element of the record array contains an array called fields. Each entry in the field contains 2 keys called name and value.
I'm querying the name of the innermost array (in fields array). I couldn't go above level 1 order of nesting.
JSON doc of the above image
"data" : {
"columns" : [
{
"name" : "styleId",
"record" : [
{
"fname" : "column_mapping",
"_id" : ObjectId("5ba488c79dc6d62c90257752"),
"fields" : [
{
"name" : "column_mapping_form",
"value" : "styleId"
}
],
"rules" : [
[
]
]
}
]
},
{
"name" : "vendorArticleNumber",
"record" : [
{
"fname" : "column_mapping",
"_id" : ObjectId("5ba488c79dc6d62c90257753"),
"fields" : [
{
"name" : "column_mapping_form",
"value" : "vendorArticleNumber"
}
],
"rules" : [
[
]
]
}
]
},
{
"name" : "vendorArticleName",
"record" : [
{
"fname" : "column_mapping",
"_id" : ObjectId("5ba488c79dc6d62c90257754"),
"fields" : [
{
"name" : "column_mapping_form",
"value" : "vendorArticleName"
}
],
"rules" : [
[
]
]
}
]
}
}
What can be the solutions if such kind of heaving nesting is there?
db.collection.find("data.columns.record.fields.name" : "column_mapping_form")
will match all documents where there is at least one element of columns has at least one record with at least one field where name is "column_mapping_form".
https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/tutorial/query-array-of-documents/ has very good explanation, examples, and interactive shell to play with.

MongoDB - Pull multiple objects from an array

Hi I'm trying to remove multiple objects from an array that looks like this.
{
"_id" : ObjectId("5a7da1bda21d5f3e8cf005b3"),
"owner" : "1",
"group_name" : "PAASCU Board",
"group_members" : [
{
"faculty_name" : "Cheska Dela Rosa",
"faculty_number" : 2,
"_id" : ObjectId("5a7da1bda21d5f3e8cf005b5")
},
{
"faculty_name" : "Earl Sempio",
"faculty_number" : 7323,
"_id" : ObjectId("5a7da1bda21d5f3e8cf005b4")
},
{
"faculty_number" : 203,
"faculty_name" : "Sample",
"_id" : ObjectId("5a7dbf7952bd150a94d83958")
},
{
"faculty_number" : 8025,
"faculty_name" : "Sample Postman",
"_id" : ObjectId("5a7dc64a1cf5dd3d50167d53")
}
],
"__v" : 0 }
It works when I remove a single object using the $pull with this code.
db.getCollection('groups').update({_id: ObjectId("5a7da1bda21d5f3e8cf005b3")}, {$pull: {"group_members": {"faculty_number":8025}}})
But what if I want to remove multiple objects with different faculty_number? I tried using the $each method just like how I add multiple objects in the array but it doesn't work well.
Use $in operator to pass the list of faculty values to remove documents from embedded array. More here
Try
db.groups.update(
{"_id": ObjectId("5a7da1bda21d5f3e8cf005b3")},
{"$pull":{"group_members":{"faculty_number":{$in:[8025,7323]}}}}
)

How to update an array of multiple elements in mongodb..?

I have a requirement to update an array of multiple elements.My collections is in the following way
{
"_id" : ObjectId("53e87e239ae974e6a0a81004"),
"name" : "mulagala",
"notifications" : [
{
"name" : "apple",
"status" : 0
},
{
"name" : "microsoft",
"status" : 0
},
{
"name" : "android",
"status" : 0
}
]
}
now i want to change the every status element of the array should be changed to 1, ie.status:1 with a single query.
I tried in the following way
db.mystatus.update({'notifications.status':0},{$set:{'notifications.$.status':1}},false,true)
But the first record only updating, what to do.Any help would be appriciated!
Have you tried updating the elements of the array using the $ operator for arrays? Currently it updates only one element as the index is coded to 0.
