One way to identify identical document values in a MongoDB collection using 2 fields is to use the $group
aggregation pipeline stage. For example, if we have a collection of documents with fields "name" and "age", we can use the following pipeline:
db.collection.aggregate([
{
$group: {
_id: { name: "$name", age: "$age" },
count: { $sum: 1 }
}
},
{
$match: {
count: { $gt: 1 }
}
}
])
This pipeline groups documents by the "name" and "age" fields and counts the number of documents that have each unique combination of values. The $match
stage filters out any groups that have a count of 1, leaving us with only the groups that have identical document values.
We can also include additional fields in the _id
object to group by more than 2 fields, or add more stages to the pipeline to further filter or manipulate the results.
