Mongo result set with multiple memberIds

help
1

Hi All,

I have a chat app I am developing. I get a result set from Mongo.

    const chats: Mongo.Cursor<Chat> = Chats.find(
      { memberIds: 'J65'},
      {
        sort: { lastMessageCreatedAt: -1 },
        transform: this.transformChat.bind(this),
        fields: { memberIds: 1, lastMessageCreatedAt: 1 } 
      }
    );

This returns the Chats for J65 .

Question

Is it possible to have multiple memberIds? i.e. return the results for more than one matching id

I have tried this with no success, i.e. it returns nothing even though there is a match (no errors though).

let registeredIds: String[] = ['J65', 'J66'];
...
{ memberIds: registeredIds },

this is what is in the database:

[
  {
    "_id": "CHb8FSuGSfZMPhkrW",
    "memberIds": [
      "P9",
      "J64"
    ]
  },
  {
    "_id": "uMSJjHheTp7RhGdH3",
    "memberIds": [
      "P9",
      "J65"
    ]
  },
  {
    "_id": "e6ZMmRaJLPptF63z8",
    "memberIds": [
      "P9",
      "J66"
    ]
  }
]

SOLUTION:

Use the $in keyword

const chats: Mongo.Cursor<Chat> = Chats.find(
  { memberIds: {$in:['J65','J66','J67']},
  {
    sort: { lastMessageCreatedAt: -1 },
    transform: this.transformChat.bind(this),
    fields: { memberIds: 1, lastMessageCreatedAt: 1 } 
  }
);
