mongo-aggregation: apply regex grouping, string processing on $project

问题

I'd like to apply some simple String manipulation when doing $project, is it possible to apply something like the following function on $project? :

var themeIdFromZipUrl = function(zipUrl){
    return zipUrl.match(/.*\/(T\d+)\/.*/)[1]
};

I'm using the following query:

db.clientRequest.aggregate(
{
$match: {
  "l": {$regex: ".*zip"},
  "t": { "$gte": new Date('1/SEP/2013'),
                    "$lte": new Date('7/OCT/2013')
                    }
  }
},
{
  $project: {"theme_url" : "$l", "_id": 0, "time": "$t"}
},
{
  $group: {   _id: {
                      theme_url: "$theme_url",
                      day: {
                              "day": {$dayOfMonth : "$time"},
                              "month": {$month: "$time"},
                              "year": {$year: "$time"}
                            },
              },
              count: {$sum:1}
  }
}

)

This returns following:

        {
        "_id" : {
            "theme_url" : "content/theme/T70/zip",
            "day" : {
                "day" : 13,
                "month" : 9,
                "year" : 2013
            }
        },
        "count" : 2
    }

Can I apply the function above on the theme_url field and turn it to theme_id? I took a little look on Map-Reduce, but I'm not sure whether it's a bit too complicated for such an easy case.

Thanks,

Amit.

There's no way to do this using the Aggregation Framework currently.

You could do it with MapReduce but that would probably slow down the entire thing (if the amount of data is large).

If this is the last step of the aggregation you can also do it on the clientside after the aggregation completes. e.g. in the Mongo shell:

var aggregationResults = col.aggregate([ /* aggregation pipeline here */]);
aggregationResults.results.forEach(function(x) { 
  x._id.theme_id = themeIdFromUrl(x._id.themeUrl);
});

If you're using a driver for another language you'll have to do this in whatever language you're using, of course.

Generally speaking, if your data contains a theme_url and the theme_id is encoded in the URL, it might make sense to store it in its own field. Mongo is not a very good tool for text manipulation.
