For this, check using $where in MongoDB. Let us create a collection with documents −
> db.demo292.insertOne({FirstName:"Chris",LastName:"Brown", ... "Friend":{FirstName:"David","LastName":"Miller"} ... } ...); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e4c10aa5d93261e4bc9ea30") } > db.demo292.insertOne({FirstName:"John",LastName:"Doe", ... "Friend":{FirstName:"Mike","LastName":"Doe"} ...} ...); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e4c10dc5d93261e4bc9ea31") }
Display all documents from a collection with the help of find() method −
> db.demo292.find();
This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e4c10aa5d93261e4bc9ea30"), "FirstName" : "Chris", "LastName" : "Brown", "Friend" : { "FirstName" : "David", "LastName" : "Miller" } } { "_id" : ObjectId("5e4c10dc5d93261e4bc9ea31"), "FirstName" : "John", "LastName" : "Doe", "Friend" : { "FirstName" : "Mike", "LastName" : "Doe" } }
Following is the query to check for equality in collection and in embedded document −
> db.demo292.find({$where: 'this.Friend.LastName === this.LastName'})
This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e4c10dc5d93261e4bc9ea31"), "FirstName" : "John", "LastName" : "Doe", "Friend" : { "FirstName" : "Mike", "LastName" : "Doe" } }
