Program 2

a. Develop a MongoDB query to select certain fields and ignore some fields of the
documents from any collection.

Syntax: db.collection.find({}, { field1: 1, field2: 1, _id: 0 })

• db.collection.find({}) is used to retrieve all documents from the collection.


• { field1: 1, field2: 1, _id: 0 } specifies the projection document where:
• field1: 1 and field2: 1 indicates that these fields will be included in the result.
• _id: 0 indicates that the _id field will be excluded from the result.

Create a database Students and collection details in Mongo DB IDE.


Add the following documents in the details collection in MongoDB IDE.

{
"rno" : 1,
"name" : "Bhavana",
"location": "Chennai"
}

{
"rno" : 2,
"name" : "Amit",
"location": "Delhi"
}
{
"rno" : 3,
"email_id" : "[email protected]" ,
"location":"Chennai"
}
{
"rno" : 4,
"name" : "Akash" ,
"location":"Bangalore"
}

{
"rno" : 5,
"name" : "Chaitra",
"location": "Bangalore"
}
//Find command with condition with giving name field only to show
> db. details.find({rno:5},{name:1})
Output:

//Find command with condition with giving name field only to show and _id to hide
>db. details.find({rno:5},{name:1,_id:0})
Output:

// Find command to show only names without condition


> db. details.find({},{name:1,_id:0})
b. Develop a MongoDB query to display the first 5 documents from the results obtained
in a. [use of limit and find]

Limit Operation: Used to restrict the number of documents returned by a query. This is
particularly useful when you're dealing with large datasets and you only need a subset of
documents.

Syntax: db.collection.find({}, { field1: 1, field2: 1, _id: 0 }).limit(5)

• Limit (5) limits the number of documents returned to 5.


• // Limit use to show only some records from starting- following command shows
only first 2 records from collection
> db. details.find().limit(2)
Output:
>db. details.find().limit(5)
Output:
