Studying MongoDB in the last two days, and I am trying to combine the three collections, but cannot achieve this.
Below are four collections in the database.
university
{
"_id" : "5834ecf7432d92675bde9d82",
"name": "NIFT"
}
college
{
"_id" : "5834ecf7432d92675bde9d83",
"name": "NIFT Hyderabad",
"university_id":"5834ecf7432d92675bde9d82"
}
departments
{
"_id" : "5834ecf7432d92675bde9d84",
"department_name": "Fashion Technology",
"college_id" : "5834ecf7432d92675bde9d83"
},
{
"_id" : "5834ecf7432d92675bde9d85",
"department_name": "Merchandising",
"college_id" : "5834ecf7432d92675bde9d83"
}
Sections
{
"_id" : "5834ecf7432d92675bde9d86",
"section_name": "A",
"students" : "56",
"department_id":"5834ecf7432d92675bde9d84"
},
{
"_id" : "5834ecf7432d92675bde9d87",
"section_name": "B",
"students" : "60",
"department_id":"5834ecf7432d92675bde9d84"
},
{
"_id" : "5834ecf7432d92675bde9d86",
"section_name": "A",
"students" : "55",
"department_id":"5834ecf7432d92675bde9d85"
},
{
"_id" : "5834ecf7432d92675bde9d87",
"section_name": "B",
"students" : "44",
"department_id":"5834ecf7432d92675bde9d85"
}
Here I am trying to get the result in the following format
Expected Result
[{
"_id": "5834ecf7432d92675bde9d83",
"name": "NIFT Hyderabad",
"university_id": "5834ecf7432d92675bde9d82",
"departments": [{
"_id": "5834ecf7432d92675bde9d84",
"department_name": "CSE",
"college_id": "5834ecf7432d92675bde9d83",
"sections": [{
"_id": "5834ecf7432d92675bde9d86",
"section_name": "A",
"students": "56",
"department_id": "5834ecf7432d92675bde9d84"
}, {
"_id": "5834ecf7432d92675bde9d87",
"section_name": "B",
"students": "60",
"department_id": "5834ecf7432d92675bde9d84"
}]
},
{
"_id": "5834ecf7432d92675bde9d85",
"department_name": "Mechanical",
"college_id": "5834ecf7432d92675bde9d83",
"sections": [{
"_id": "5834ecf7432d92675bde9d86",
"section_name": "A",
"students": "55",
"department_id": "5834ecf7432d92675bde9d85"
},
{
"_id": "5834ecf7432d92675bde9d87",
"section_name": "B",
"students": "44",
"department_id": "5834ecf7432d92675bde9d85"
}
]
}
]
}]
But, I get departments and sections in separate arrays for college, but I can’t get as in the above format
Query
db.college.aggregate([
{"$match": { "university_id": "5834ecf7432d92675bde9d82" } },
{"$lookup": {
"localField": "_id",
"from": "departments",
"foreignField": "college_id",
"as": "departments"
}},
{"$unwind":"$departments"},
{$group : {_id : "$_id", departments : {$push : "$departments" }}},
{"$lookup": {
"localField": "departments._id",
"from": "sections",
"foreignField": "department_id",
"as": "sections"}
}
])
Can someone help me solve this problem, it will be very helpful for me.
