Edit multiple objects in array using mongoose (MongoDB)

So I tried several ways, but I can't, I can modify several objects with the same key but I can't modify any with different keys, if anyone can help me is quite a complex problem
{
id: 123,
"infos": [
{ name: 'Joe', value: 'Disabled', id: 0 },
{ name: 'Adam', value: 'Enabled', id: 0 }
]
};
In my database I have a collection with an array and several objects inside which gives this.
I want to modify these objects, filter by their name and modify the value.
To give you a better example, my site returns me an object with the new data, and I want to modify the database object with the new object, without clearing the array, the name key never changes.
const object = [
{ name: 'Joe', value: 'Hey', id: 1 },
{ name: 'Adam', value: 'None', id: 1 }
];
for(const obj in object) {
Schema.findOneAndUpdate({ id: 123 }, {
$set: {
[`infos.${obj}.value`]: "Test"
}
})
}
This code works but it is not optimized, it makes several requests, I would like to do everything in one request, and also it doesn't update the id, only the value.
If anyone can help me that would be great, I've looked everywhere and can't find anything
My schema structure
new Schema({
id: { "type": String, "required": true, "unique": true },
infos: []
})
I use the $addToSet method to insert objects into the infos array

Try This :
db.collection.update({
id: 123,
},
{
$set: {
"infos.$[x].value": "Value",
"infos.$[x].name": "User"
}
},
{
arrayFilters: [
{
"x.id": {
$in: [
1
]
}
},
],
multi: true
})
The all positional $[] operator acts as a placeholder for all elements in the array field.
In $in you can use dynamic array of id.
Ex :
const ids = [1,2,..n]
db.collection.update(
//Same code as it is...
{
arrayFilters: [
{
"x.id": {
$in: ids
}
},
],
multi: true
})

Maybe you look for something like this:
db.collection.update({},
{
$set: {
"infos.$[x].value": "test1",
"infos.$[x].id": 10,
"infos.$[y].value": "test2",
"infos.$[y].id": 20
}
},
{
arrayFilters: [
{
"x.name": "Adam"
},
{
"y.name": "Joe"
}
],
multi: true
})
Explained:
You define arrayFilters for all names in objects you have and update the values & id in all documents ...

return what was not found in array in MongoDB

say my database collection has
* user collection*
[
{id:'1'}
{id:'2'}
]
I have an array of object
[
{id:'1'}
{id:'2'}
{id:'3'}
]
I want the object that was not found in the collection.
I want
[
{id:'3'}
]
I'm currently have this
const records = await dbo
.collection('user collection')
.find({
'id': { $in: newArr },
})
.toArray();
I'm a bit stumped on what to do! ... hope someone can help Thanks!

Option 1:
Looks like this is what you need via the not in operation ( $nin ) when you need to check the not exisitng id in collection documents from provided array:
db.collection.aggregate([
{
$match: {
id: {
"$nin": [
1,
2
]
}
}
},
{
$group: {
_id: null,
"idnotIntheArray": {
$push: "$id"
}
}
}
])
Explained:
$match for any documents with id not in provided array.
$group all id's in an array

Option 2:
And this is the option where you output only the array elements not existing in the collection:
db.collection.aggregate([
{
$group: {
_id: null,
ids: {
$push: "$id"
}
}
},
{
$project: {
missingFromCollection: {
"$setDifference": [
[
1,
5,
4
],
"$ids"
]
}
}
}
])
Explained:
Push all id elements from collection to array ids ( note this solution will not allow more then 16MB total size of id's )
Use $setDifference to identify the difference between the two arrays.

You can use this aggregation:
db.entity.aggregate([
{
$match : {
"myObjList.id" : 1
}
},
{
$unwind : "$myObjList"
},
{
$match : {
"myObjList.id" : 1
}
}
])
and my aggregation result:
{
"_id" : ObjectId("6225a0f78d435fd2845f1dd1"),
"myObjList" : {
"id" : 1
}
}

Is it possible to update multiple documents with different values using mongo? [duplicate]

I have the following documents:
[{
"_id":1,
"name":"john",
"position":1
},
{"_id":2,
"name":"bob",
"position":2
},
{"_id":3,
"name":"tom",
"position":3
}]
In the UI a user can change position of items(eg moving Bob to first position, john gets position 2, tom - position 3).
Is there any way to update all positions in all documents at once?

You can not update two documents at once with a MongoDB query. You will always have to do that in two queries. You can of course set a value of a field to the same value, or increment with the same number, but you can not do two distinct updates in MongoDB with the same query.

You can use db.collection.bulkWrite() to perform multiple operations in bulk. It has been available since 3.2.
It is possible to perform operations out of order to increase performance.

From mongodb 4.2 you can do using pipeline in update using $set operator
there are many ways possible now due to many operators in aggregation pipeline though I am providing one of them
exports.updateDisplayOrder = async keyValPairArr => {
try {
let data = await ContestModel.collection.update(
{ _id: { $in: keyValPairArr.map(o => o.id) } },
[{
$set: {
displayOrder: {
$let: {
vars: { obj: { $arrayElemAt: [{ $filter: { input: keyValPairArr, as: "kvpa", cond: { $eq: ["$$kvpa.id", "$_id"] } } }, 0] } },
in:"$$obj.displayOrder"
}
}
}
}],
{ runValidators: true, multi: true }
)
return data;
} catch (error) {
throw error;
}
}
example key val pair is: [{"id":"5e7643d436963c21f14582ee","displayOrder":9}, {"id":"5e7643e736963c21f14582ef","displayOrder":4}]

Since MongoDB 4.2 update can accept aggregation pipeline as second argument, allowing modification of multiple documents based on their data.
See https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/method/db.collection.update/#modify-a-field-using-the-values-of-the-other-fields-in-the-document
Excerpt from documentation:
Modify a Field Using the Values of the Other Fields in the Document
Create a members collection with the following documents:
db.members.insertMany([
{ "_id" : 1, "member" : "abc123", "status" : "A", "points" : 2, "misc1" : "note to self: confirm status", "misc2" : "Need to activate", "lastUpdate" : ISODate("2019-01-01T00:00:00Z") },
{ "_id" : 2, "member" : "xyz123", "status" : "A", "points" : 60, "misc1" : "reminder: ping me at 100pts", "misc2" : "Some random comment", "lastUpdate" : ISODate("2019-01-01T00:00:00Z") }
])
Assume that instead of separate misc1 and misc2 fields, you want to gather these into a new comments field. The following update operation uses an aggregation pipeline to:
add the new comments field and set the lastUpdate field.
remove the misc1 and misc2 fields for all documents in the collection.
db.members.update(
{ },
[
{ $set: { status: "Modified", comments: [ "$misc1", "$misc2" ], lastUpdate: "$$NOW" } },
{ $unset: [ "misc1", "misc2" ] }
],
{ multi: true }
)

Suppose after updating your position your array will looks like
const objectToUpdate = [{
"_id":1,
"name":"john",
"position":2
},
{
"_id":2,
"name":"bob",
"position":1
},
{
"_id":3,
"name":"tom",
"position":3
}].map( eachObj => {
return {
updateOne: {
filter: { _id: eachObj._id },
update: { name: eachObj.name, position: eachObj.position }
}
}
})
YourModelName.bulkWrite(objectToUpdate,
{ ordered: false }
).then((result) => {
console.log(result);
}).catch(err=>{
console.log(err.result.result.writeErrors[0].err.op.q);
})
It will update all position with different value.
Note : I have used here ordered : false for better performance.

Find element in an array that may or may not exist

I have a document that looks a bit like this:
> db.orders.find()
{
_id: ObjectId(),
_reminders: [{
notified: true,
timestamp: ISODate(),
completed: false
}]
}
{
_id: ObjectId(),
_reminders: []
}
What I am trying to find is a document in the orders collection where the "reminders" does not contain a reminder in a specific time range, and is not completed.
db.orders.find({
'_reminders': {
$elemMatch: {
completed: false,
timestamp: { $ne: time }
}
}
});
The problem is that this will not find an order which does not have any reminders at all.
How would one query this?

This should get you what you want
db.getCollection('Clock').find({
$or : [
{
_reminders : {
$elemMatch : {
timestamp : {
$lte : ISODate("2019-07-12T15:35:32.278Z"),
$gte : ISODate("2012-07-12T15:35:32.278Z")
},
completed : false
}
}
},
{
_reminders : {$size : 0}
},
{
_reminders : {$exists : false}
}
]
})

you should use $or query.
db.orders.find({$or: [ { _reminders: [] }, here_put_your_query_with_time_match ]}) - it will return both documents which match your query and these with empty _reminders

MongoDB: Update nested data, but avoid multiple objects

I try to insert some data into an existing document:
Graph.update(
{ id: id },
{
$push: {
tooltips: {
element: Session.get('tooltipID'),
text: text
}
}
}
);
This is working quite well, but if there is already data in tooltips, this one should be updated instead of adding a new object, as there can only be a unique object for a unique element (tooltipID).
I want to avoid these multiple entries for the same element-value in tooltips.
{
"_id" : "c4bKur6TKcgFHGLZZ",
"data" : "[]",
"tooltips" : [
{
"element" : "2d4edaaf",
"text" : "Lorem"
},
{
"element" : "2d4edaaf",
"text" : "ipsum"
}
]
}
But it should be possible to have more then one object in tooltips, if element is really unique...
I tried to add a upsert:true to the update(), but that doesn't work.

Definitely upsert won't work with embedded document.
One approach can be
Graph.update({id:id},
{
$addToSet: {
'tooltips': {
element: Session.get('tooltipID'),
text: text
}
}
})
It will ensure no duplicate on tooltips;
similarly you can use $set
Graph.update({
id:id,
'tooltips.element': Session.get('tooltipID')
},
{
$set: {
'tooltips.$.text':text
}
})
or you can pull before push
Graph.update({
"id":id
}, {
$pull: {
'tooltips': {
"element": Session.get('tooltipID')
}
}
})
Graph.update(
{ id: id },
{
$push: {
tooltips: {
element: Session.get('tooltipID'),
text: text
}
}
}
);
