Combine two OR-queries with AND in Mongoose
I want to combine two OR-queries with AND in Monoose, like in this SQL statement:
SELECT * FROM ... WHERE (a = 1 OR b = 1) AND (c=1 OR d=1)
I tried this in a NodeJS module which only gets the model object from the main application:
/********** Main application ***********/
var query = MyModel.find({});
myModule1.addCondition(query);
myModule2.addCondition(query);
query.exec(...)
/************ myModule1 ***************/
exports.addCondition = function(query) {
query.or({a: 1}, {b: 1});
}
/************ myModule2 ***************/
exports.addCondition = function(query) {
query.or({c: 1}, {d: 1});
}
But this doesn't work, all OR-conditions will get joined together like in this SQL statement:
SELECT * FROM ... WHERE a = 1 OR b = 1 OR c=1 OR d=1
How can I combine the two conditions of myModule1
and myModule2
with AND in Mongoose?
Solution 1:
It's probably easiest to create your query object directly as:
Test.find({
$and: [
{ $or: [{a: 1}, {b: 1}] },
{ $or: [{c: 1}, {d: 1}] }
]
}, function (err, results) {
...
}
But you can also use the Query#and
helper that's available in recent 3.x Mongoose releases:
Test.find()
.and([
{ $or: [{a: 1}, {b: 1}] },
{ $or: [{c: 1}, {d: 1}] }
])
.exec(function (err, results) {
...
});
