In MongoDB, you can join two collections by using the aggregation framework and the $lookup operator. Here is an example of how you can join two collections:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 |
db.collection1.aggregate([
{
$lookup: {
from: "collection2",
localField: "field_in_collection1",
foreignField: "field_in_collection2",
as: "joined_data"
}
}
])
|
In this example, replace "collection1" and "collection2" with the names of your collections. Also, replace "field_in_collection1" and "field_in_collection2" with the fields that you want to use to join the two collections.
The $lookup operator will match the documents in collection1 with the documents in collection2 based on the specified fields and add the matching documents as an array to the "joined_data" field in the output.
