MongoDB : how to set a new field equal to the value of another field, for every document in a collection [duplicate]

问题

This question already has answers here:

Update MongoDB field using value of another field (8 answers)

Closed 3 years ago.

I need to run a migration script to insert a value (already available in each document) into an array of this same document. This has to be done for each documents of my collection (no selection query required)

How to change this:

{
    "_id": ObjectID("5649a7f1184ebc59094bd8b3"),
    "alternativeOrganizer": ObjectID("5649a7f1184ebc59094bd8b1"),
    "myArray": []
}

Into this:

{
    "_id": ObjectID("5649a7f1184ebc59094bd8b3"),
    "alternativeOrganizer": ObjectID("5649a7f1184ebc59094bd8b3"),
    "myArray": [
         ObjectID("5649a7f1184ebc59094bd8b3")
    ]
}

Thanks in advance.

回答1:

I would use forEach and $addToSet, so that the script can be re-executable.

The $addToSet operator adds a value to an array unless the value is already present, in which case $addToSet does nothing to that array.

db.collectionname.find().forEach(function(results)
{    
    print( "Id: " + results._id );
    db.collectionname.update( {_id : results._id},
                       {$addToSet : {myArray : results._id}})
});
