Node.js MongoDB Filter Query

The find() method is also used to filter the result on a specific parameter. You can filter the result by using a query object.

Example

Filter the records to retrieve the specific employee whose address is “Delhi”.

Create a js file named “query1.js”, having the following code:

  var http = require(‘http’);  var MongoClient = require(‘mongodb’).MongoClient;  var url = “mongodb://localhost:27017/MongoDatabase”;  MongoClient.connect(url, function(err, db) {  if (err) throw err;  var query = { address: “Delhi” };  db.collection(“employees”).find(query).toArray(function(err, result) {  if (err) throw err;  console.log(result);  db.close();  });  });  

Open the command terminal and run the following command:

Node.js MongoDB Filter With Regular Expression

Retrieve the record from the collection where address start with letter “L”.

Create a js file named “query2”, having the following code:

  var http = require(‘http’);  var MongoClient = require(‘mongodb’).MongoClient;  var url = “mongodb://localhost:27017/MongoDatabase”;  MongoClient.connect(url, function(err, db) {  if (err) throw err;  var query = { address: /^L/ };  db.collection(“employees”).find(query).toArray(function(err, result) {  if (err) throw err;  console.log(result);  db.close();  });  });
