In my MongoDB collection, all documents contain a mileage
field which currently is a string. Using PHP, I'd like to add a second field which contains the same content, but as an integer value. Questions like How to change the type of a field? contain custom MongoDB code which I don't want to run using PHP, and questions like mongodb php Strings to float values retrieve all documents and loop over them.
Is there any way to use \MongoDB\Operation\UpdateMany
for this, as this would put all the work to the database level? I've already tried this for static values (like: add the same string to all documents), but struggle with getting the data to be inserted from the collection itself.
Some further hints:
exec
. This should avoid installing more packages than needed on the PHP server You could use $set
like this in 4.2 which supports aggregation pipeline in update.
$set
stage creates a mileageasint
based on the previous with $toInt
value
db.collection.updateMany(
<query>,
[{ $set: { "mileageasint":{"$toInt":"$mileage" }}}],
...
)
Php Solution ( Using example from here )
$updateResult = $collection->updateMany(
[],
[['$set' => [ 'mileageasint' => [ '$toInt' => '$mileage']]]]
);
Try this, please:
01) MongoDB Aggregate reference:
db.collectionName.aggregate(
[
{ "$addFields": {
"intField": { "$toInt": "$stringFieldName" }
}},
{ "$out": "collectionName" }
]
)
02) Possible PHP solution (Using as reference https://www.php.net/manual/en/mongocollection.aggregate.php ):
$pipeline = array(
array(
'$addFields' => array(
'integerField' => array('$toInt' => '$mileage')
)
),
array(
'$out' => 'collection'
),
);
$updateResult = $collection->aggregate(pipeline);
