Comparing two fields of mongo collection using c# driver in mono

问题

Am completely new to Mongodb and C# driver.

Development is being done using Monodevelop on Ubuntu 14.04 and Mongodb's version is 3.2.10 :

Currently my code has a POCO as below:

public class User
{
    public String Name { get; set;}
    public DateTime LastModifiedAt { get; set;}
    public DateTime LastSyncedAt { get; set;}

     public User ()
    {

    }
}

Have been able to create a collection and also to add users.

How do I find users, whose LastModifiedAt timestamp is greater than LastSyncedAt timestamp ? Did some searching, but haven't been able to find the answer.

Any suggestions would be of immense help

Thanks

Actually, it is not very simple. This should be possible with querysuch as :

var users = collection.Find(user => user.LastModifiedAt > user.LastSyncedAt).ToList();

But unfortunetly MongoDriver could not translate this expression. You could either query all Users and filter on the client side:

var users = collection.Find(Builders<User>.Filter.Empty)
                      .ToEnumerable()
                      .Where(user => user.LastModifiedAt > user.LastSyncedAt)
                      .ToList();

Or send json query, because MongoDb itself is able to do it:

var jsonFliter = "{\"$where\" : \"this.LastModifiedAt>this.LastSyncedAt\"}";
var users = collection.Find(new JsonFilterDefinition<User>(jsonFliter))
                      .ToList();

And, yes, you need an Id - Property for your model class, i haven't mentioned it first, because i thought you do have one, just not posted in the question.
