You can use aggregate framework for this. Here, we will get the sum and then match it to search for documents less than a particular number. Let us first create a collection with documents −
> db.searchDocumentsDemo.insertOne({"Value1":100,"Value2":560}); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5cd3fe1eedc6604c74817ce9") } > db.searchDocumentsDemo.insertOne({"Value1":300,"Value2":150}); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5cd3fe29edc6604c74817cea") } > db.searchDocumentsDemo.insertOne({"Value1":400,"Value2":200}); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5cd3fe30edc6604c74817ceb") } > db.searchDocumentsDemo.insertOne({"Value1":190,"Value2":210}); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5cd3fe45edc6604c74817cec") }
Following is the query to display all documents from a collection with the help of find() method −
> db.searchDocumentsDemo.find().pretty();
This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5cd3fe1eedc6604c74817ce9"), "Value1" : 100, "Value2" : 560 } { "_id" : ObjectId("5cd3fe29edc6604c74817cea"), "Value1" : 300, "Value2" : 150 } { "_id" : ObjectId("5cd3fe30edc6604c74817ceb"), "Value1" : 400, "Value2" : 200 } { "_id" : ObjectId("5cd3fe45edc6604c74817cec"), "Value1" : 190, "Value2" : 210 }
Following is the query to search for documents based on the value of adding two properties on the document −
> db.searchDocumentsDemo.aggregate([ ... { $project: {totalValue: { $add: [ "$Value1", "$Value2" ] } } }, ... { $match: {totalValue: {$lt: 500 }} } ... ]);
This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5cd3fe29edc6604c74817cea"), "totalValue" : 450 } { "_id" : ObjectId("5cd3fe45edc6604c74817cec"), "totalValue" : 400 }
