To get the mean daily average count of recorded documents, use aggregate(). Within that, use $project and $group.
Let us create a collection with documents −
Example
> db.demo451.insertOne({ ... DueDate:new ISODate("2020-03-15T10:50:35.000Z"), ... Value: 10 ... } ... ); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e7b5c5d71f552a0ebb0a6e9") } > db.demo451.insertOne({ ... DueDate:new ISODate("2020-03-14T10:50:35.000Z"), ... Value: 10 ... } ... ); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e7b5c5d71f552a0ebb0a6ea") } > db.demo451.insertOne({ ... DueDate:new ISODate("2020-03-13T10:50:35.000Z"), ... Value: 10 ... } ... ); { "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e7b5c5d71f552a0ebb0a6eb") }
Display all documents from a collection with the help of find() method −
> db.demo451.find();
This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e7b5c5d71f552a0ebb0a6e9"), "DueDate" : ISODate("2020-03- 15T10:50:35Z"), "Value" : 10 } { "_id" : ObjectId("5e7b5c5d71f552a0ebb0a6ea"), "DueDate" : ISODate("2020-03- 14T10:50:35Z"), "Value" : 10 } { "_id" : ObjectId("5e7b5c5d71f552a0ebb0a6eb"), "DueDate" : ISODate("2020-03- 13T10:50:35Z"), "Value" : 10 }
Following is the query to get the mean daily average count of recorded documents in a collection −
> db.demo451.aggregate({ ... $match: { ... DueDate: { ... $lt: new ISODate() ... } ... } ... }, { ... $group: { ... _id: null, ... olderDate: { ... $min: "$DueDate" ... }, ... sumValue: { ... $sum: "$Value" ... } ... } ... }, { ... $project: { ... _id: 0, ... averageValue: { ... $divide: ["$sumValue", { ... $divide: [{ ... $subtract: [new ISODate(), "$olderDate"] ... }, 1000 * 60 * 60 * 24] ... }] ... } ... } ... })
This will produce the following output −
{ "averageValue" : 2.475558456547562 }
