$currentDate option to only update if the document was modified
A common pattern in a data model is to have a field that denotes when the data was last modified. For this example, let this field be called "updated". I want to toggle a field on a document called "enabled", and if the value is modified I also want to update the "updated" field.
This behavior is possible right now via a comment shown in SERVER-42084, but ONLY if we include the entire document, which is not acceptable when you only want to modify a single field. This document could have other fields that are numeric and are updated atomically,…

Support compound/multiple grouping keys in $bucket
We often need to compute statistical/summarizing aggregations grouped by more than one field where all fields are of a $bucket-able type.
An example, would be to count all orders grouped by their status and some custom time ranges of their creation date.
This can be achieved by using $group in combination with a $switch expression (sometimes simplified with $trunc), however, that is cumbersome and prevents efficient grouping since e.g. no binary search can be employed to identify the bucket boundaries efficiently.The query syntax of $bucket would not need to change much. It would simply need to allow for nested…

Need an array query operator like elem match which matches all array nested object instead of at least one array element
as per documentation elem match query matches at least one match in array of nested object,
same we need a array query operator which returns the whole document only if elem match like criteria matches all elements in array of nested objects.
I have gone through usecase of $all with $elemMatch but it behaviour different it is like $and with $elemMatch instead excepted behaviour i am asking or excepting mentioned earlier.

Handle Daylight Saving Time when $densify is used on a date field
When using "day" as "unit" for a $densify pipeline stage on a date field, the date is always advanced of 24 hours. This is however not always the expected result in timezones in which the year has one 23-hour and one 25-hour long day, because of Daylight Saving Time.
It would be useful to have the possibility to pass an optional timezone parameter in the $densify stage and, when present, have the stage account for these exceptions when appropriate.
Here follows an example.
Assume we have a collection containing the following documents:
…db.densifyDateExample.insertMany([ {_id: "a", d: ISODate("2022-10-28T22:00:00Z")}, {_id: "b", d:

Document scoped RBAC - Permission for collection document fields
Roles and accesses can be defined on the basis of collections that define roles for users.
It would be nice if these access permissions could be made within the scope of the fields under the collection and the query results would be returned accordingly.Current:
privileges: [
{ resource: { db: "users", collection: "user" }, actions: [ "find"] },
}
Expected:
{ resource: { db: "users", collection: "user", field: "email" }, actions: [ "find"] },

Make redundant createView() a no-op
If I call createView() with params that match an existing view (in name and all other attributes), it returns an error. It'd be more convenient if the call simply succeeded without doing any work. The behavior I propose is analogous to the way that createIndex() behaves. With the current behavior my only choices are to (1) unconditionally drop and recreate the view, or (2) read the current view definition and see whether it matches the definition I want. The first choice is unacceptable because for a period of time (albeit a short one) the view won't exist and queries that…

Allow Dynamic Object In $project and $addFields
Assume I have a field mapping defined in some configuration collection of my application. And this field mapping varies for different clients on my application.
I would like to pass the dynamic object in my $project or $addFields stage
Like:
$project: {
{$arrayToObject: "$field_mapping"},
}{$arrayToObject: "$field_mapping"} would return something like
"email" : "$data.Email",
"phone" : "$data.Phone,
"firstname" : "$data.FirstName",
"lastname" : "$data.LastName",
"preferredchannel" : "$data.Channel",
"preferredlanguage" : "$data.LanguageCode",
"emailchannel" : "$data.Email",
"smschannel" : "$data.SMS",
"province" : "$data.CustomerState"1 vote -
hint support for $graphLookup
Currently you can supply a
hint
to theaggregation
call in order to tell MongoDB to use a specific index for the initial$match
. But there is currently no way to specify which index to use for a$graphLookup
later in the pipeline.I would like an optional
hint
property on the$graphLookup

Add operator that would calculate distance between 2 geolocation points
It would be great to have operator that would calculate distance between 2 geolocation points, and not to do it manually with big aggregate queries.
I suggest to add 2 new operators that would calculate distance in two different ways, as discussed in this Community Post: https://www.mongodb.com/community/forums/t/how-to-calculate-distance-between-two-geolocation-points/173045

`$getField` to work with a dynamic `field`
Currently
$getField
works only whenfield
resolves at query-compile-time to a string. It would be nice if it worked also whenfield
resolves to a string at runtime.See this Jira ticket - https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/SERVER-67030

Add a $sample accumulator operator
So that it's easier to sample a number of items from each group, instead of writing lengthy DSL like this:
Ideally it can be expressed like this:
{
$group: {
_id: '$year',
samples: { $sample: 100 },
}
}
Hence making sampling 100 items from each group a snap to achieve!

kNN Searches with MongoDB
Dear MongoDB team,
The possibility for kNN searches within a collection would be a real game changer. Not only in machine learning, but also in other areas you need this query method to find similar structures.
Practically, it could go in the same direction as text searches. So that you have to create an index that you can also query similarly and then sort according to the score.I speak from my own suffering, as I had to switch from MongoDB to Open-/Elasticsearch for my current project, as they are also non-relational databases but support kNN searches. However, I like…

Support expressions in $densify range bounds
The $densify aggregation pipeline stage seems unable to evaluate range bounds expressions, requiring the range bounds to be constant.
See the following example (the collection testcoll contains a single documents with only the _id field):
…sometestdb> db.testcoll.aggregate([{$addFields: {a: 1}}, {$densify: {field: "a", range: {bounds: [0, 5], step: 1}}}]) [ { a: 0 }, { _id: ObjectId("6284a16d64553eaf74b1e189"), a: 1 }, { a: 2 }, { a: 3 }, { a: 4 } ] sometestdb> db.testcoll.aggregate([{$addFields: {a: 1}}, {$densify: {field: "a", range: {bounds: [{$toInt: "0"}, 5], step: 1}}}]) MongoServerError: A bounding array must be an ascending array of either two dates or

Raise the limit of 16 MB JSON between aggregation stages
When doing analytics, the 16 MB JSON limit between aggregation stages restricts the ability to process large amount of data. allowDiskUse does not help with all the various $operators and stages that we use. See ticket 00774514 for details.

the profile output in association with the $comment query operator need to have consistency across operations.
I have observed the different profile result with regard to $comment query operator in association with find and update operation respectively as follows;
find operation shows a comment on the command.filter.$comment and the command.comment field in the system.profile collection.
op: 'query',
ns: 'db101.Bets',
command: {
find: 'Bets',
filter: {
_id: ObjectId("61a9db4b3bd34e4f68fb9abc"),
'$comment': 'test-dba'
},
comment: 'test-dba',
lsid: { id: UUID("43ebee67-3184-4ede-9cee-ecca7457861a") },
'$db': 'db101'
},update operation shows a comment only on the command.q.$comment field in the system.profile collection.
op: 'update',
ns: 'db101.Bets',
command: {
q: {

multiple centersphere as a geometry for geowithin
im looking at one of my queries that a system regularly runs and some times we look for records that are within up to 250 different centerspheres, i wornder if we could enable, like geowithin has the ability to support multiple poligons, we could enable multiple centerspheres ,
$match: {{'location':{
"$geoWithin" : {
"$centerSphere" : [[ 14.4321, -9.4321], 2.5232135647961246e-05]
}
}}, {'location':{
"$geoWithin" : {
"$centerSphere" : [[ 14.4321, -9.4321], 2.5232135647961246e-05]
}
}}, ...}
we could do :
```
$match: {'location':{
"$geoWithin" : {
"$centerSpheres" : [
[[ 14.4321, -9.4321], 2.5232135647961246e-05] ,
[[ 14.4321, -9.4321], 2.5232135647961246e-05],
