BSON Types

https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/bson-types/

Check If A Document Exists

It is significantly faster to use find() + limit() because findOne() will always read + return the document if it exists. find() just returns a cursor (or not) and only reads the data if you iterate through the cursor.

db.getCollection('message').find({_id: ObjectId("585836504b287b5022a3ae26", delivered: false)}, {_id: 1}).limit(1)

Find Documents

db.getCollection('user').find({username: 'nanababy520'})

db.getCollection('message').find({_id: ObjectId("5a6383b8d93d7a3fadf75af3")})

db.getCollection('message').find({_cls: 'Message'}).sort({posted_at: -1})

db.getCollection('message').find({sender: ObjectId("57aace67ac08e72acc3b265f"), pricing: {$ne: 0}})

db.getCollection('message').find({
    sender: ObjectId("5ac0f56038cfff013a123d85"),
    created_at: {
        $gte: ISODate('2018-04-21 12:00:00Z'),
        $lte: ISODate('2018-04-21 13:00:00Z')

Find Documents With An Array Field

• $in: [...] means "intersection" or "any element in"
• $all: [...] means "subset" or "contain"
• $elemMatch: {...} means "any element match"
• $not: {$elemMatch: {$nin: [...]}} means "subset" or "in"

The last one roughly means not any([False, False, False, False]) where each False is indicating if the item is not in in [...].

Find Documents With An Array Field Of Embedded Documents

Usually, you could use $elemMatch.

{'the_array_field': {'$elemMatch': {
    'a_field_of_each_element': {'$lte': now},
    'another_field_of_each_element': 123
}}}

db.getCollection('message').find({
    unlocks: {
        $elemMatch: {
            _cls: 'PointsUnlock',
            user: ObjectId("57f662e727a79d07993faec5")
        }
    }
})

db.getCollection('feature.shop.product').find({
    purchases: {
        $elemMatch: {
            _cls: 'Purchase'
        }
    }
})

db.getCollection('feature.shop.product').find({
    '_id': 'prod_CWlSTXBEU4mhEu',
    'purchases': {'$not': {'$elemMatch': {

Find Documents With Existence Of Fields Or Values

• .find({'field': {'$exists': true}}): the field exists
• .find({'field': {'$exists': false}}): the field does not exist
• .find({'field': {'$type': 10}}): the field exists with a null value
• .find({'field': null}): the field exists with a null value or the field does not exist
• .find({'field': {'$ne': null}}): the field exists and the value is not null
• .find({'array_field': {'$in': [null, []]}})

db.test.insert({'num': 1, 'check': 'value'})
db.test.insert({'num': 2, 'check': null})
db.test.insert({'num': 3})

db.test.find({});

db.test.find({'check': {'$exists': true}})
// return 1 and 2

db.test.find({'check': {'$exists': false}})
// return 3

db.test.find({'check': {'$type': 10}});
// return 2

db.test.find({'check': null})
// return 2 and 3

db.test.find({'check': {'$ne': null}});

});

Update With Conditions Of Field Values

You could update the value of the field to a specified value if the specified value is less than or greater than the current value of the field. The $min and $max operators can compare values of different types.

Only set posted_at to current timestamp if its current value is None or absent.

Post.objects.update_one(
    {
        '_id': bson.ObjectId(post_id),
        'media.0': {'$exists': True},
        'title': {'$ne': None},
        'location': {'$ne': None},
        'gender': {'$ne': None},
        'pricing': {'$ne': None},
    },
    {
        '$min': {'posted_at': utils.utcnow()},

Update An Array Field

Array update operators:

• $: Acts as a placeholder to update the first element in an array for documents that matches the query condition.
• $[]: Acts as a placeholder to update all elements in an array for documents that match the query condition.
• $[<identifier>]: Acts as a placeholder to update elements in an array that match the arrayFilters condition.
• $addToSet: Adds elements to an array only if they do not already exist in the set.
• $push: Adds an item to an array.
• $pop: Removes the first or last item of an array.
• $pull: Removes all array elements that match a specified query.
• $pullAll: Removes all matching values from an array.

Add an element in an array field.

user_id = '582ee32a5b9c861c87dc297e'
tag = 'my_tag'

updated = User.objects \
    .filter(id=user_id, tags__ne=tag) \
    .update_one(push__tags=tag)

updated = User.objects \
    .filter(id=user_id) \
    .update_one(add_to_set__schedules={
        'tag': tag,
         'nbf': datetime.datetime(2018, 6, 4, 0, 0),
        'exp': datetime.datetime(2019, 5, 1, 0, 0),
    })

Insert an element into an array at a certain position.

slot = 2
Post.objects.filter(id=post_id, media__id__ne=media_id).update_one(__raw__={
    '$push': {
        'media': {
            '$each': [{'id': bson.ObjectId(media_id)}],
            '$position': slot,
        }
    }
})

Remove elements in an array field. It is also worth noting that update(pull__abc=xyz) always returns 1.

user_id = '582ee32a5b9c861c87dc297e'
tag = 'my_tag'

updated = User.objects \
    .filter(id=user_id) \
    .update_one(pull__tags=tag)

updated = User.objects \
    .filter(id=user_id) \
    .update_one(pull__schedules={'tag': tag})

Remove multiple embedded documents in an array field.

import bson

user_id = '5a66d5c2af9c462c617ce552'
tags = ['valid_tag_1', 'future_tag']

updated_result = User._get_collection().update_one(
    {'_id': bson.ObjectId(user_id)},
    {'$pull': {'schedules': {'tag': {'$in': tags}}}},

You could also use add_to_set to add an item to an array only if it is not in the list, which always returns 1 if filter() matches any document. However, you are able to set full_result=True to get detail updated result.

update_result = User.objects.filter(id=user_id).update_one(
    add_to_set__tags=tag,
    full_result=True,
)
# {'n': 1, 'nModified': 1, 'ok': 1.0, 'updatedExisting': True}

Update An Array Field With arrayFilters

You should use arrayFilters as much as possible.

The syntax of arrayFilters would be:

db.collection.update(
   {<query selector>},
   {<update operator>: {'array.$[<identifier>].field': value}},
   {arrayFilters: [{<identifier>: <condition>}}]}
)

Inbox._get_collection().update_many(
    {'messages.id': message_id},
    {'$set': {'messages.$[message].tags': tags}},
    array_filters=[
        {'message.id': message_id},
    ],
)

ref:
https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/operator/update/positional-filtered/

Insert an element into an array field at a certain position.

db.getCollection('feature.forums.post').update(
   { _id: ObjectId("5b3c6a9c8433b15569cae54e") },
   {
     $push: {
        media: {
           $each: [{
                "mimetype" : "image/jpeg",
                "url" : "https://example.com/posts/5adb795b47d057338abe8910.jpg",
                "presets" : {}
            }],
           $position: 1
        }
     }
   }
)

Or use explicit array index $set.

media_id = 'xxx'
media_slot = 0

Post.objects \
    .filter(id=post_id, **{f'media__{media_slot}__id__ne': media_id}) \

Upsert: Update Or Create

You must use upsert=true with uniquely indexed fields. If you don't need the modified document, you should just use update_one(field1=123, field2=456, upsert=True).

Additionally, remember that modify() always reloads the whole object even the original one only loads specific fields with only(). Try to avoid using document.DB_QUERY_METHOD(), and using User.objects.filter().only().modify() or User.objects.filter().update() when it is possible.

tag_schedule = TagSchedule.objects \
    .filter(user=user_id, tag='vip') \
    .modify(
        started_at=started_at,
        ended_at=ended_at,
        upsert=True
    )

user = User.objects \
    .filter(id=user.id, tutorials__buy_diamonds__version=None) \
    .modify(set__tutorials__buy_diamonds__version='v1')

updated = User.objects \
    .filter(user=user_id, tag=tag) \
    .update_one(
        push__followers=new_follower,

db.getCollection('user').updateMany(
    {
        'phone_no': {'$exists': true},
        'social.phone-number.uid': {'$exists': false},
    },
    {'$rename': {
        'phone_no': 'social.phone-number.uid',
    }}
);

ref:
https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/operator/update/rename/

Do some extra data converting and rename the field manually.

db.getCollection('user').aggregate([
    {'$match': {
        'twitter.id': {'$exists': true},
        'social.twitter.uid': {'$exists': false},
    }},
    {'$project': {
        'twitter_id': '$twitter.id',
        'twitter_id_str': {'$toString': '$twitter.id'},
    }},
]).forEach(function (document) {
    printjson({
        'id': document._id,
    });

    db.getCollection('user').updateOne(
      {
          'twitter.id': document.twitter_id,
          'social.twitter.uid': {'$exists': false},
      },
      {
          '$unset': {'twitter.id': true},
          '$set': {'social.twitter.uid': document.twitter_id_str}
      }
    )
})

Insert/Replace Large Amount Of Documents

const operations = contracts.map((contract) => {
    // TODO: should create a new contract if there is any change of the contract?
    // use MongoDB transaction to change the new one and old one
    return {
        'replaceOne': {
            'filter': {'settlement_datetime': currentSettlementMonth.toDate(), 'user': contract.user},
            'replacement': contract,
            'upsert': true,
        },
    };
});

db.collection('user.contract').bulkWrite(
    operations,
    {ordered: true},
    (bulkError, result) => {
        if (bulkError) {
            return next(bulkError, null);
        }

        logger.info('Finished importing all contracts');
        return next(null, result);
    },
);

Update Large Numbers Of Documents

Use Bulk.find.arrayFilters() and Bulk.find.update() together.

In Python:

import datetime

expiration_time = datetime.datetime.utcnow() - datetime.timedelta(hours=48)

bulk = Outbox._get_collection().initialize_unordered_bulk_op()

for outbox in Outbox.objects.only('id').filter(messages__posted_at__lt=expiration_time):
    bulk.find({'_id': outbox.id}).update_one({
        '$pull': {'messages': {
            'posted_at': {'$lt': expiration_time},
        }},
    })

try:
    results = bulk.execute()
except pymongo.errors.InvalidOperation as err:
    if str(err) != 'No operations to execute':
        raise err

In JavaScript:

const operations = docs.map((doc) => {
    logger.debug(doc, 'Revenue');

    const operation = {
        'updateOne': {
            'filter': {
                '_id': doc._id,
            },
            'update': {
                '$set': {
                    'tags': doc.contract.tags,
                },
            },
        },
    };
    return operation;
});

db.collection('user.revenue').bulkWrite(
    operations,
    {ordered: false},
    (bulkError, bulkResult) => {
        if (bulkError) {
            return next(bulkError, null);
        }

        logger.info(bulkResult, 'Saved tags');
        return next(null, true);
    },
);
});

Of course, you could also update the same document with multiple operations. However, it does not make sense.

from pymongo import UpdateOne
import bson

def _operations():
    if title = payload.get('title'):
        yield UpdateOne({'_id': bson.ObjectId(post_id)}, {'$set': {'title': title}})

    if location = payload.get('location'):
        yield UpdateOne({'_id': bson.ObjectId(post_id)}, {'$set': {'location': location}})      

    if pricing = payload.get('pricing'):
        yield UpdateOne({'_id': bson.ObjectId(post_id)}, {'$set': {'pricing': pricing}})

    if description = payload.get('description'):
        yield UpdateOne({'_id': bson.ObjectId(post_id)}, {'$set': {'description': description}})

    UpdateOne(
        {
            '_id': bson.ObjectId(post_id),
            'media.0': {'$exists': True},
            'title': {'$ne': None},
            'location': {'$ne': None},
            'pricing': {'$ne': None},
            'posted_at': {'$eq': None},
        },
        {'$set': {'posted_at': utils.utcnow()}},
    )

operations = list(_operations())
result = Post._get_collection().bulk_write(operations, ordered=True)
print(result.bulk_api_result)

MongoEngine In Python

ref:
http://docs.mongoengine.org/guide/index.html
http://docs.mongoengine.org/apireference.html

Define Collections

It seems every collection in MongoEngine must have a id field.

ref:
http://docs.mongoengine.org/guide/defining-documents.html

Define A Field With Default EmbeddedDocument

The behavior of setting an EmbeddedDocument class as default works differently with and without only().

class User(ab.models.ABTestingMixin, db.Document):
    class UserSettings(db.EmbeddedDocument):
        reply_price = db.IntField(min_value=0, default=500, required=True)
        preferences = db.ListField(db.StringField())

    email = db.EmailField(max_length=255)
    created_at = db.DateTimeField(default=utils.now)
    last_active = db.DateTimeField(default=utils.now)
    settings = db.EmbeddedDocumentField(UserSettings, default=UserSettings)

If the user does not have settings field in DB, here is the difference.

user = User.objects.get(username='gibuloto')
isinstance(user.settings, User.UserSettings) == True

user = User.objects.only('settings').get(username='gibuloto')
(user.settings is None) == True

user = User.objects.exclude('settings').get(username='gibuloto')
isinstance(user.settings, User.UserSettings) == True

Filter With Raw Queries

post = Post.objects \
    .no_dereference().only('posted_at') \
    .filter(__raw__={
        '_id': bson.ObjectId(post_id),
        'media.0': {'$exists': True},
        'title': {'$ne': None},
        'location': {'$ne': None},
        'gender': {'$ne': None},
        'pricing': {'$ne': None},
    }) \
    .modify(__raw__={'$min': {'posted_at': utils.utcnow()}}, new=True)

print(post.posted_at)

ref:
http://docs.mongoengine.org/guide/querying.html#raw-queries

Check If A Document Exists

Use .exists().

import datetime

now = datetime.datetime.now(datetime.timezone.utc)
if TagSchedule.objects.filter(user=user_id, tag=tag, started_at__gt=now).exists():
    return 'exists'

You have to use __raw__ if the field you want to query is a db.ListField(GenericEmbeddedDocumentField(XXX) field.

if MessagePackProduct.objects.filter(id=message_pack_id, __raw__={'purchases.user': g.user.id}).exists():
    return 'exists'

Upsert: Get Or Create

buy_diamonds = BuyDiamonds.objects.filter(user_id=user.id).upsert_one()

Store Datetime

MongoDB stores datetimes in UTC.

2-phase Commit

The easiest way to think about 2-phase commit is idempotency, i.e., if you run a update many times, the results would "be the same": initial -> pending -> applied -> done.

Aggregation Pipeline

• $match: Filters documents.
• $project: Modifies document fields.
• $addFields: Adds or overrides document fields.
• $group: Groups documents by fields.
• $lookup: Joins another collection.
• $replaceRoot: Promotes an embedded document field to the top level and replace all other fields.
• $unwind: Expanses an array field into multiple documents along with original documents.
• $facet: Processes multiple pipelines within one stage and output to different fields.

There are special system variables, for instance, $$ROOT, $$REMOVE, $$PRUNE, which you could use in some stages of the aggregation pipeline.

Copy Collections To Another Database

var bulk = db.getSiblingDB('target_db')['target_collection'].initializeOrderedBulkOp();
db.getCollection('source_collection').find().forEach(function(d) {
    bulk.insert(d);
});
bulk.execute();

var bulk = db.getSiblingDB('test')['company.revenue'].initializeOrderedBulkOp();
db.getCollection('company.revenue').find().forEach(function(d) {

Useful Tools

Backup

$ mongodump -h  127.0.0.1:27017 --oplog -j=8 --gzip --archive=/data/mongodump.tar.gz

ref:
https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/program/mongodump/

Restore

$ mongorestore --drop --gzip --archive=2018-08-12T03.tar.gz

This kind of error typically indicates some sort of issue with data corruption, which is often caused by problems with the underlying storage device, file system or network connection.

Profiling

You could also set the profiling level to 2 to record every query.

db.setProfilingLevel(2);

db.getCollection('system.profile').find({
    'ns': { 
        '$nin' : ['test.system.profile', 'test.system.indexes', 'test.system.js', 'test.system.users']
    }
}).limit(5).sort({'ts': -1}).pretty();
