For this, use $and along with $regex. The $and performs a logical AND operation on an array of one or more expressions and selects the documents that satisfy all the expressions in the array.
Let us create a collection with documents −
> db.demo525.insertOne({"details":[{Name:"Chris","CountryName":"US"}]});{ "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e8ae5ef437efc8605595b66") } > db.demo525.insertOne({"details":[{Name:"Bob","CountryName":"UK"}]});{ "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e8ae5f8437efc8605595b67") } > db.demo525.insertOne({"details":[{Name:"chris","CountryName":"us"}]});{ "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e8ae602437efc8605595b68") } > db.demo525.insertOne({"details":[{Name:"Mike","CountryName":"UK"}]});{ "acknowledged" : true, "insertedId" : ObjectId("5e8ae60b437efc8605595b69") }
Display all documents from a collection with the help of find() method −
> db.demo525.find();
This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e8ae5ef437efc8605595b66"), "details" : [ { "Name" : "Chris", "CountryName" : "US" } ] } { "_id" : ObjectId("5e8ae5f8437efc8605595b67"), "details" : [ { "Name" : "Bob", "CountryName": "UK" } ] } { "_id" : ObjectId("5e8ae602437efc8605595b68"), "details" : [ { "Name" : "chris","CountryName" : "us" } ] } { "_id" : ObjectId("5e8ae60b437efc8605595b69"), "details" : [ { "Name" : "Mike","CountryName" : "UK" } ] }
Following is the query to find multiple matchings inside an array of objects −
> db.demo525.find( ... {"$and": [ ... { "details" : { "$elemMatch" :{ "Name": {$regex: new RegExp('^' + 'Chris', 'i')}}} }, ... { "details" : { "$elemMatch" :{ "CountryName": {$regex: new RegExp('^' + 'us', 'i')}}} } ... ]} ... )
This will produce the following output −
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5e8ae5ef437efc8605595b66"), "details" : [ { "Name" : "Chris", "CountryName" : "US" } ] } { "_id" : ObjectId("5e8ae602437efc8605595b68"), "details" : [ { "Name" : "chris", "CountryName" : "us" } ] }
