Find value in a MongoDB Array with multiple criteria?



To find value in the array with multiple criteria, for example, you can use $elemMatch along with $gt and $lt. The syntax is as follows −

db.yourCollectionName.find({yourFieldName:{$elemMatch:{$gt:yourNegativeValue,$lt:yourPo sitiveValue}}}).pretty();

To understand the above syntax, let us create a collection with the document. The query to create a collection with a document is as follows −

> db.findValueInArrayWithMultipleCriteriaDemo.insertOne({"StudentName":"Larry","StudentMarks":[-150,150]}); {    "acknowledged" : true,    "insertedId" : ObjectId("5c77daf6fc4e719b197a12f5") } > db.findValueInArrayWithMultipleCriteriaDemo.insertOne({"StudentName":"Mike","StudentMarks":[19]}); {    "acknowledged" : true,    "insertedId" : ObjectId("5c77db09fc4e719b197a12f6") }

Display all documents from a collection with the help of find() method. The query is as follows −

> db.findValueInArrayWithMultipleCriteriaDemo.find().pretty();

The following is the output −

{    "_id" : ObjectId("5c77daf6fc4e719b197a12f5"),    "StudentName" : "Larry",    "StudentMarks" : [       -150,       150    ] } {    "_id" : ObjectId("5c77db09fc4e719b197a12f6"),    "StudentName" : "Mike",    "StudentMarks" : [       19    ] }

Here is the query to find value in the array with multiple criteria. For example, here we are considering marks greater than -20 and less than 20 −

> db.findValueInArrayWithMultipleCriteriaDemo.find({StudentMarks:{$elemMatch:{$gt:-20,$lt:20}}}).pretty();

The following is the output −

{    "_id" : ObjectId("5c77db09fc4e719b197a12f6"),    "StudentName" : "Mike",    "StudentMarks" : [       19    ] }
